Thursday Update with Swapdoodle lessons, Ocarina issues, Qbby Instagram, Pikachu stickers and more!

Swapdoodle added lessons for The Legend of Zelda (Ocarina of Time childhood and Wind Waker friends) today with a Nintendo Switch lesson next week. Compatibility was also added for Tank Troopers, The Legend of Zelda: 30th Anniversary and Super Mario Maker: Costume Mario Badges 2 from Collectible Badge Center. Thanks to Perfectly-Nintendo for the latter.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D experiences performance issues with the new 3DS system update. This was originally reported by Santar_ on Reddit. I played for twenty minutes as apparently there are frame-rate and audio issues. It played fine for me but external functionality (StreetPass/Miiverse etc) no longer work. Thanks to Harvey, Craig and Chris for their help with this!

Qbby (star of the Box Boy!/Hako Boy! series) has joined Instagram (http://instagram.com/qbby_hal2015)!

Team Rascal Pikachu stickers are now available on the LINE app: ”Illustrator MOGU lends her drawing style to the Pokémon universe in this cute and feisty sticker set featuring Pikachu and its pals. Throw these stickers into your chats and become the very best today!“

Fire Emblem Heroes saw another Grand Hero Battle today to unlock (female) Robin as well an another Summoning Festival. Both run until 27 February.

Nintendo Switch Experience Meeting takes place in the Grand Front Osaka this weekend (25–26 February from 10:30–18:00 JST) with a ‘The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild Experience Corner’ that lasts about 20 minutes and a ‘Nintendo Switch Feeling Corner’ (experience the Joy-Con, HD Rumble and play Count Balls from 1–2-Switch) that lasts about 5 minutes.

Dragon Quest XI: Sugisarishi Toki o Motomete will have new information in Weekly Shonen Jump Issue 14 (out March 6). Thanks to Gematsu.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim ‘news’ from Polygon regarding Todd Howard of Bethesda: “He “can’t say” whether the original Skyrim or the 2015 remaster will be released.’
