Kirby’s Dream Buffet includes some surprises if you have Forgotten Land save data

Add as a preferred source on Google

If you have game save data for Kirby and the Forgotten Land, there’s a sweet surprise waiting for you in Kirby’s Dream Buffet. The latest party game featuring the pink puffball will award you with three music tracks from Kirby and the Forgotten Land that you can play during races.

When you return to the home plate after finishing any competition — Gourmet Grand Prix, Single Race, Single Minigame, or Single Battle Royale — for the first time, you’ll get a chocolate-covered vinyl record-style cookie containing a trio of songs from Kirby and the Forgotten Land, complete with a message thanking you for playing the game. The track list includes the theme song Welcome to the New World!, the song that Kirby cruises along to in car form early in Forgotten Land.

The Kirby and the Forgotten Land songs won’t be the only tracks on your party playlist. If you happen to own other Kirby titles for the Nintendo Switch, Kirby’s Dream Buffet will also gift you three bonus songs each from those games to play to your heart’s content while gobbling up every strawberry in sight. The additional melodies will come from Kirby Star Allies, Kirby Fighters 2, and Super Kirby Clash.

Meanwhile, Nintendo announced that Kirby and the Forgotten Land is offering players 300 Star Coins and four food items when you use the Present Code “DREAMBUFFET.” You can use this code between now and September 17. It’s all a sweet way to cap off Kirby’s 30 anniversary, which Nintendo has been celebrating this year through various releases.

Phantom Blade Zero makes me think Sony might have a point about going all digital
Physical games still matter, but when the disc isn't a complete copy of the game, the argument for keeping it becomes harder to make.

I'm a big supporter of physical games. There's something satisfying about owning a disc, lending it to a friend, or grabbing a bargain without waiting for a digital storefront to approve the price. But Phantom Blade Zero has me questioning one of the biggest arguments in the physical-versus-digital debate. The game's digital version launches on October 29, 2026, while its physical PS5 editions, including Standard, Deluxe, and Ultimate versions, won't arrive until 2027.

And there's another wrinkle: the digital version reportedly needs up to 134GB of storage, raising questions about how much of the game can actually fit on a standard Blu-ray disc. A standard PS5 Ultra HD Blu-ray disc maxes out at 100GB, so Phantom Blade Zero may need to ship across multiple discs or require players to download additional data to finish installing it. Either way, the idea of popping in a disc and having the complete game ready to play gets a little murkier.

Nintendo Switch 2 jailbreak breakthrough shows what AI can do, but it’s not a one-click hack
The software-only exploit works on the latest firmware, but it's tethered and still has significant limitations.
Nintendo Switch 2

The Nintendo Switch 2 has reportedly been jailbroken, and AI helped crack the code. Developer Sammy Hajhamid, aka pepsipu, used OpenAI's Codex to help exploit the console, even modding Mario Kart World with the likes of Peter Griffin and Hatsune Miku. But before anyone celebrates an unlocked Nintendo playground, there's a catch: the exploit is tethered, not a full-blown custom firmware jailbreak.

Microsoft may already be putting pieces of its rumored Game Pass overhaul into place. A recent report claimed that Xbox CEO Asha Sharma is planning a major rethink of the subscription service that could let players pay separately for features such as cloud gaming, multiplayer, and console-only games. Xbox has now started testing a pay-as-you-go version of Cloud Gaming that does not require a Game Pass subscription.
