It was interesting to see more of how battles will work in the Z-A Royale battle zones, too.

It hinges on a day-night cycle, where battles will ring out in the evening.

Previously, Nintendo covered up the C in its reveal trailer from January.

Now all we need to know is what the button actually does.

I could see Nintendo showing those off today to highlight bigger titles next week or down the line.

Those titles are already burned having been marketed before as games for the Switch.
