Nippon Ichi Software has released a new trailer for Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny in its ongoing series of promotional videos. This will mark the fifth trailer in the series, and it gives a good preview of the story of the game as well as some of the characters.

The four and a half minute video is entirely Japanese, but it still gives a good preview of the game regardless of the language. Check out the full trailer below.

Disgaea 6: Defiance of Destiny is scheduled to release on Switch on January 28, 2021 in Japan, and summer 2021 for North America.

Imagineer has announced a new sales record for Fitness Boxing 2: Rhythm & Exercise. After only being out for about a month, the game has sold over 500,000 copies worldwide. This is factoring in digital and physical sales.

This is a big accomplishment, given that the game is exclusive to the Switch, and it appears that Imagineer will continue to support the game with new content moving forward. A new “No-Mercy” intensity add-on is available today for free and there are plans for more free updates to come.

Monster Hunter Rise demo

It seems the release of Monster Hunter Rise’s demo was more popular than Nintendo anticipated, as the eShop experienced high traffic and slowdowns as soon as it was released a few hours ago. Shortly after these issues, Nintendo Japan announced via their official Twitter that the eShop is now undergoing emergency maintence to work out the problems caused by increased traffic.

This official announcement from Nintendo’s Japanese Twitter account is included below.


The eShop still appears to be down as of this reporting (in both Japan and the US), and no official time has been posted for when it will be back up. However, stay posted and there should be updates regarding this situation soon.
