Gal Gun Double Peace

Gal Gun: Double Peace, which first debuted in 2015 in Japan (followed by the west a year later), has been announced for Switch. It will release for the console as part of a new definitive edition.

Switch has seen a couple of Gal Gun titles, but this is the first appearance of Double Peace on a Nintendo platform. It’s another rail shooter, though now it’ll feature new elements like an opening movie. Almost all DLC outfits will be included as well. Inti Creates has also teased a bonus for those that own Gal Gun 2 and Gal Gun Returns.

Here’s some additional information:

It’s been almost three years on the dot since Germany took Nintendo to court over the inability to cancel pre-orders on the eShop, particularly regarding Switch. About a year later, the case was won in Nintendo’s favor. You may recall that the decision was being appealed right after the initial was announced. And finally, there’s some new movement.

The main takeaway is that Nintendo’s win has been revoked, as the appeal court has determined that the company is in breach of law within Europe. Nintendo initially claimed to be in an “untenable” position given how the company is following the letter of the law stating “performance” has begun at the time of payment. However, the court ruled that “performance” doesn’t start until the game is actually playable.

Star Wars: Hunters

Zynga has issued the first gameplay trailer for Star Wars: Hunters, the upcoming free-to-play competitive arena combat game for Switch.

For more on the title, have a look at the following overview:

In the last financial report from Nintendo, we learned that Mario Kart 8 Deluxe sales have reached 38.74 million units, surpassing Mario Kart Wii as the best-selling game in the franchise. Being a “deluxe” edition of a Wii U title, I found it surprising how incredibly successful the game is.

There are obvious reasons for those crazy numbers such as the Switch’s success and the overall popularity of Mario Kart. However, in a new video today, I decided to analyze what exactly makes it special on the inside, why the game is so universally approachable, and how it differs from past games in the series. You can check the video down below.

pokemon brilliant diamond shining pearl review

System: Switch
Release date: November 19, 2021
Developer: ILCA
Publisher: Nintendo


Pokemon Diamond and Pearl originally came to us here in the west back in 2007. I was a senior in high school when I first got my copy and ended up stopping my clock in game at 999 hours. To put it lightly, I was hooked. The series’ first entry on the DS gave us a lush new region to explore with interesting additions like the Poketch and the ability to select moves in battle that utilized the system’s touchscreen. Along with being able to bring over Pokemon from the previous generation of games, a more complete Pokedex was possible, and it was easier to attain before. Nostalgia aside, it’s now 2021 and we have the remakes in hand with Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl on Switch. Do the Sinnoh games live up to the hype, or should we have left this one… underground?
