Konami released their final big pre-launch batch of Super Bomberman R screenshots from the Switch. Check after the jump for them separated into single player/co-op and multiplayer galleries — the Story Mode is certainly looking pretty interesting, but another thing to note in the screenshots is how aliased the game’s graphics are even in their marketing materials.
With the Nintendo Switch launching next Friday and games like Horizon Zero Dawn for PS4 which many are predicting will be one of the year’s top sellers releasing next week, the stalwart Wii U that was home to some legitimately engaging games in spite of largely lacklustre sales will be sailing off into the distance to be remembered as an odd step in Nintendo’s unique console history. In honour of our comrade of the last few years, Game Usagi presents a list of our top 5 exclusive Wii U titles that deserve to be played and remembered not for their sales, but for the joy they can still bring even as other fancier Nintendo hardware is shortly set to take the stage.
The 2016 edition of the annual Game Usagi Plays Smash Bros. for Wii U Tournament, can Logan defend his ultimate title from last year or are Tom and Franco gunning for the prize?

Our original picture of the inside of the dock went viral in its own way as everyone is thirsting for more information on the Switch as its launch date quickly approaches. I’ve seen a lot of people strangely concerned with screen scratches and the dock though, so I went back to the dock pictures I took that I originally rejected because they were too blurry. While blurry and not bright enough at the time, I lightened them some in Photoshop and they give some more angles of what I am assuming are the rubber runners inside the dock that make contact with the bezel instead of the screen — preventing the Switch screen from coming into contact with anything that would harm it during the docking/undocking process. You can see the new pictures below along with the video we did of the docking process, and the part of our GoPro video in which we played around with the demo Switch hardware unit. Hopefully this sheds some more light on it for everyone.
