Nintendo

The company that gave the world Mario, Link, and Samus is the undisputed champ of the modern console war, with nearly 150 million Switches sold since 2017. But now, speculation is rampant about the company's next console, rumored to launch in 2025.

Fire Emblem Fates had the best U.S. launch in series history, Nintendo said this morning. They sold 300,000+ copies of the game. Also noteworthy: Birthright outsold Conquest, which makes sense!

There will be a Pokémon Direct on Friday, the day before Pokémon’s 20th birthday. According to Nintendo’s official site, the five-minute presentation, which will “celebrate 20 years of Pokémon,” takes place at 7AM PT—that’s 10AM ET, or 3PM GMT.
