And next - please, Nintendo - can he be added to Smash Bros. Most recently, Captain Toad cameoed in Super Mario Odyssey. The lamp-headed Toad leader was first seen in Super Mario Galaxy, before becoming a playable character in Super Mario 3D World, from which Treasure Tracker spun-off. Originally launched for Wii U, these new versions of the game add a fresh set of levels themed around Super Mario Odyssey, plus two-player co-op on Switch.ĭon't expect too much different in the demo - although hopefully its new releases can bring Captain Toad to new, non-Wii U owning audiences. The rotatable 3D puzzle platformer can be sampled via a free demo downloadable from each console's eShop, ahead of its full release on 13th July. It's possible that Nintendo might just offer free periods of their first-party games in lieu of new content, which is still a pretty good deal for the price of the service.Nintendo's adorable Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker is now available to try on its two new platforms: Nintendo Switch and 3DS. It was mentioned by Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa that the positive reaction to Tetris 99 has prompted the company to look into other titles that can be offered to Nintendo Switch Online subscribers, but nothing has come of this yet. The people who subscribed to Nintendo Switch Online have received the excellent Tetris 99(which is receiving modes that don't require a subscription as paid DLC) and some thirty-year-old Nintendo Entertainment System games. Nintendo Switch Online subscribers haven't received a great deal of value for their money, even compared to the more expensive services offered by Microsoft and Sony.

If the promotion is locked to Japan, then the free version might only contain a single language option.

It's possible to download the promotional version of the game from the Japanese eShop, but there is no word on whether it will work until the day itself, nor if the game will be playable in other languages. As of right now, the promotion has only been announced for Japan and there is no word of a similar offer coming to Europe or North America.
