Switch icon connoisseurs will have something to celebrate very soon. Digital Eclipse’s excellent Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Cowabunga Collection is about to get an update, and as part of that update, the game’s Switch icon will also be revamped.
We know some of you dear readers are pretty picky about Switch icons, just like us. And frankly, the half-armored heroes deserved a little better than what they initially got. Luckily, Digital Eclipse listened, and with the upcoming update, Switch owners will also be graced with a brand new menu icon.
The developer admitted this long-awa ited change on Twitter
“And yes, for those of you who didn’t like the Switch icon for TMNT: The Cowabunga Collection, when the title update is applied, the tile will become the main logo instead.
We heard you. We always hear you.”
So the new icon looks pretty awesome, right? It’s just like a game framework, which is what many developers and publishers are looking for today. The original is not terriblebut to say that he ruffled the hair of a rat.
In case you haven’t seen it, the current (soon to be retired) icon is a pretty colorful piece of screen decoration with all four turtles on it. But there was no title, no logo, and the icon was designed to look like a small button that sinks into the Switch’s white background. Except it didn’t work if your Switch screen was in dark mode. You can see for yourself in SuperDarkMimelV’s tweet below.
So that’s it, then! We don’t know exactly when the update will be released, but with Digital Eclipse showing off some of the tweaks tomorrow at 11:00am PT / 2:00pm ET, we have a feeling our Switch screens will look a little nicer. Soon.
What do you think of the original logo? Are you happy about the change? Let us know!
