Path of Radiance Coming to NSO Expansion Pass, for Nintendo Switch 2

Sadly, no new Fire Emblem game was announced during today’s Nintendo Switch 2 Direct. However, Nintendo hasn’t completely forgotten about us.

It was explained that Nintendo Switch Online will be compatible with Nintendo Switch 2. Additionally, GameCube games will be added to the Expansion Pass, exclusively on Nintendo Switch 2. One of the featured games was Path of Radiance, although a release date for it wasn’t provided.

At launch, The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, Soul Calibur II and F-Zero GX will be available. These GameCube games will also have “clearer image quality and higher resolution” compared to the original releases.

Merchandise: Byleth (F) Figma Announced & Updates for Pop Up Parade Dorothea, Sylvain + Hilda

We have some figure updates from Wonder Festival 2025 [Winter] in Japan (source).

First, a new figma of Byleth (F) from Three Houses has been announced.

A price or release date was not provided.

The last character to receive a figma was Edelgard waaaay back in 2020. Before that, we also had Corrin (F) and Lucina.

Next, here’s our first proper look at the Pop Up Parade figures for Dorothea, Sylvain and Hilda that were teased earlier.

Far as I can tell, there’s currently no other information (like a release date).

For reference, these are the third set of Three Houses students to get Pop Up Parade figures. First in line were obviously Edelgard, Dimitri and Claude. Then there was Bernadetta, Felix and Lysithea. Both versions of Byleth also have figures.

Merchandise: Emperor Edelgard 1/7 Scale Figure from Three Houses!

Note: This is a backdated article.

Intelligent Systems has delivered a Christmas present for Edelgard/Three Houses fans–the announcement of a new 1/7 scale figure of Edelgard in her Emperor attire.

Pre-orders are available until 26th February 2025, from places like Good Smile Company (US). The expected release date is January 2026.

Edelgard’s figure is the latest in a long-running line-up that features protagonists and important characters from across the series. Prior to Edelgard, King Dimitri was the latest figure to be announced. Presumably Claude will swoop in eventually.

An official website (Japanese) has been created, which shares some general info, plus a celebratory illustration from Chinatsu Kurahana, the illustrator for Three Houses.
