New Atlus survey in Japan asks fans which systems they want to see Persona 6 and other games on
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in General Gaming, News | 64 Comments
Atlus has sent out a new survey to its Japanese customers. In it, they want to hear their fans’ opinions on a variety of topics, but mostly which games they want to see on which systems. The games range from sequels to remakes to re-releases to entirely new games and IPs.
A big topic is naturally the Persona series. Atlus is even asking fans about non-video game stuff here, asking whether fans would be interested in a new Persona board game. Another question is about interest in a non-RPG Persona game, such as a strategy game or a shooter. Atlus also mentions a hypothetical Persona 6. As mentioned before, fans can choose which systems they’d like to see these games on. The choices for the system include the Switch and the 3DS.
Naturally, you shouldn’t be jumping to any conclusions based on this survey. Atlus has sent out surveys like this in the past and the choices aren’t necessarily indicative of Atlus’ actual plans. Persona 6 on Switch is sure to be a popular choice, but that doesn’t mean it’s actually going to happen. For now, Persona fans can look forward to Persona Q2 on 3DS.

Xenoblade Chronicles 2: version 1.3.0 is out in mid-February, will add New Game+
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 29 Comments
Nintendo has announced that version 1.3.0 of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 will be available in mid-February. This patch will add a New Game+ function to the game. Details on that mode haven’t been announced yet, though it was previously hinted at that in New Game+ you will be able to get certain Blades that are used by the antagonists.
1.3.0 will also contain a bug fix for an issue that was introduced in version 1.2.0, wherein a Blade synchronized with a certain Driver will not be displayed on the Blade list in mid-chapter 7.
Fire Emblem Heroes: Choose Your Legends Round 2 mid-vote standings
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in Mobile, News | 16 Comments
The second round of the Choose Your Legends vote for Fire Emblem Heroes is currently underway. We’re halfway through the voting period (it ends on January 29th) and Intelligent Systems decided to publish the current standings of the vote.
The previous winners (Ike, Roy, Lyn and Lucina) are exluded from this vote. Naturally, those who placed high in the first round of the vote but didn’t quite win are doing well in this round, such as Camilla, Eirika, Hector or Marth. The recent release of Fire Emblem Echoes definitely help boost the popularity of some of its characters – Celica is leading the female vote and Alm is ranked fourth in the male vote. Another trend are some of the original Heroes characters that aren’t available to players yet, such as Veronica and Loki. Finally, characters that Heroes made popular because of their usefulness in-game are also doing well in the vote, with the obvious example being Reinhardt who is currently in fifth place. In the first Choose Your Legends vote, he ended up in 584th place.
Head past the break for images of the current male and female standings.
