Tetris 99 39th Maximus Cup

The Tetris 99 39th Maximus Cup event runs from 12 a.m. PT on April 5 to 11:59 p.m. PT on April 8. To participate, any Nintendo Switch Online member just needs to play the Tetris 99 online mode during the event period. Players will earn event points based on their placement in each match. Once players have accumulated a total of 100 event points, a new theme will unlock, featuring background art, music and Tetrimino designs inspired by Princess Peach: Showtime! In addition to Tetris 99, with a Nintendo Switch Online or Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack membership, you can enjoy online play with compatible games, growing libraries of classic games, the ability to save on select digital games by purchasing pairs of Nintendo Switch Game Vouchers, and several other benefits and special offers.

In the Princess Peach: Showtime! game, Peach must save the Sparkle Theater from the wicked Grape and the Sour Bunch, and thwart their plot to bring each show to a tragic conclusion. As Peach, you'll team up with the theater's guardian Stella, and transform to match each performance – play as Swordfighter Peach, Patissiere Peach, Figure Skater Peach, Kung Fu Peach, Detective Peach and more. Each powerful transformation grants Peach showstopping abilities to best save each play – good thing, because it's going to take plenty of panache to bring this adventure to its triumphant final bow!
