DK Rumor, Game Builder Garage, No Detective Pikachu 2? | NINTENDO NEWS ROUNDUP
5,698It's the week's biggest Nintendo news stories and the Arlopinions that accompany them! In this edition: a juicy new DK rumor is making the rounds; Nintendo gives us the deets on all the financial happenings from the last fiscal year; the guy who founded Illumination Entertainment is probably joining Nintendo's board of directors; scalpers are now after cereal; an ex-Retro dev doesn't seem to think Metroid Prime Trilogy on Switch is likely; and like a whole bunch of other stories too but I won't spoil them all here.
