Splatoon 3 Clam Blitz guide

Of all the ranked modes in Splatoon 3, Clam Blitz is perhaps the most hit-or-miss. Not because there’s anything wrong with the mode, but because it’s somewhat poorly explained for players who haven’t played it before. Some even consider Clam Blitz the toughest ranked mode, so we’ve written up a guide on how to play it. There’s a lot to like about this mode once you get the hang of it.

Thanks to GamesIndustry, we have new insight into the UK gaming market for March 2024.

There’s not a whole lot of excitement this month with EA Sports FC 24 the highest charting Switch game at #2. Princess Peach: Showtime comes in at #30, but it released late and the month. Command & Conquer also saw a 17-title bundle which impacted the chart this month a bit.

Visions of Mana Switch

When Square Enix announced Visions of Mana at the end of last year, some were surprised that a Switch version was nowhere to be seen. For one thing, the series itself started out on Nintendo platforms. We’ve also seen Collection of Mana as a Switch exclusive while Trials of Mana came out a few years ago as well.

In an interview with RPG Site, series producer Masaru Oyamada commented on the situation. Here’s what he had to say when asked why Switch isn’t a part of the plan this time around:

A new month just started up this week. Now that we’re in April, we want to know what you’ve been playing.

Theatrhythm Final Bar Line leap day bug

February 29: If you’ve been trying to play Theatrhythm Final Bar Line today but haven’t been able to do so, it seems that this is because leap day is causing issues.
