SWITCH HUNTERS

With no official specs due to be revealed until next year, the rumour mill has spun into overdrive. The Switch screen, we’re told, is 720p and capacitive multitouch, two big leaps forward from Wii U’s GamePad. Expect more details to leak in the coming months. We’ll next hear from Nintendo officially on January 13, when an event in Japan is expected to yield a launch lineup and release date. The latter may already have been outed by Capcom, which announced Monster

HunterXX, a new 3DS game with a curious save-file transfer function, for release on March 17 in Japan.
