Japan's Mister Donut teams up with Disney for first time for Mickey and Minnie Sweets
♪M-I-S, T-E-R, D-O-N-U-T♪ In the vast majority of circumstances, having mice in your restaurant would be nothing to smile about, and the sort of news that most companies would want to keep as tight a lid on as possible. However, there's a rare exception on the way for Japan's leading donut chain, Mister Donut, which not only is intentionally inviting in a pair of mouse visitors, but is telling everyone about it. That's because while they're technically rodents, Mickey Mouse and gal-pal Minnie's status as beloved animated characters means they don't present any sort of hygiene issue for Mister Donut, and are instead a cause for celebration as the chain gears up for its first-ever collaboration with Disney. Slated on the opposite side of the seasonal cycle as Mister Donut's annual winter Pokémon donuts, the Disney sweets will be going on sale in midsummer. Details are currently scarce, but a preview photo of the Mickey donut looks like a three-part treat, with a chocolate-coated donut in the center and a pair of 'ears' up top, though it's hard to see if these are separate spheres served as part of a set or if they're connected to the donut in a sort of hybrid of a standard donut and Mister Donut's popular Pon de Ring confectionaries, which are rings made of donut dough orbs. Mickey's shorts, meanwhile, bear resemblance to Mister Donut's Poké Ball donut which was dusted with strawberry sugar, so we might be seeing/tasting that flavor again here. Mister Donut is also promising a Minnie Mouse donut, though with no preview images of it yet released it's a mystery as to whether it'll simple be a cosmetic variant of the Mickey one or its own thing entirely. Either way, the Disney donuts come in special Disney/Mister Donut packaging and will be available for a limited time starting in early July, assuming they don't experience any non-cuteness-related delays like the chain's original Pikachu donuts did.

Palworld had to remove game features because of Nintendo lawsuit
The ongoing lawsuit between Nintendo and Palworld developer Pocketpair has forced the studio to make some changes to its Pokémon -like game. In a new blog post, Pocketpair explained that a patch in November removed certain gameplay features, and that an upcoming update will cull even more. 'We have had to make certain compromises in order to avoid disruptions to the development and distribution of Palworld,' the studio says. This started with a patch on November 30th, which most notably removed the ability to summon creatures by throwing a 'Pal Sphere,' which is reminiscent of summoning pokémon with a Poké Ball. The studio adds that other changes were made, without specifying what they were. 'As many have speculated, these changes were indeed a result of the ongoing litigation.' 'As many have speculated, these changes were indeed a result of the ongoing litigation,' Pocketpair explains. 'Everyone here at Pocketpair was disappointed that this adjustment had to be made, and we fully understand that many players feel the same frustration. Unfortunately, as the alternative would have led to an even greater deterioration of the gameplay experience for players, it was determined that this change was necessary.' More changes are coming, as well. Pocketpair says that the upcoming patch v0.5.5 will change how gliding works, as 'gliding will be performed using a glider rather than with Pals.' Nintendo first filed its patent infringement lawsuit in September of last year, and Pocketpair initially said that 'we are unaware of the specific patents we are accused of infringing upon, and we have not been notified of such details.' However, soon after the exact patents at the heart of the lawsuit were revealed, and they covered elements like riding characters and throwing balls in a field.
