Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Wii U | 0 comments
As of this week, Famitsu has stopped tracking Wii U hardware sales numbers in Japan. With these numbers only being in the double digits each week lately, it seems like they have now reached a point where it’s no longer viable or possible to accurately track them each week. The other major sales figure tracker for the Japanese market, Media Create, stopped reporting Wii U numbers a while ago. As it stands, the final number of Wii U consoles sold in Japan, as reported by Famitsu, is 3,303,541.

Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
Quite a few Fire Emblem Heroes news updates today. First up, Intelligent Systems published a new event calendar today, detailing what will be happening in-game up until mid-November. You can see the calendar above.
The next Tempest Trials+ event called Familiar Faces will be running from October 14th till October 24th. The major rewards this time are a new Hero, Dorcas: Pumpkin Smasher, and two seals, Brazen Atk/Res 1 and Darting Stance 1. The bonus units this time are Myrrh: Spooky Monster, Kagero: Beverage Ninja, Niles: Forbidden Tease, Mia: Moonlit Witch, Dorcas: Pumpkin Smasher, Myrrh: Great Dragon, Mia: Lady of Blades and Dorcas: Serene Warrior. There’s also a log-in bonus until the end of the Tempest Trials+ event, giving you a total of 10 orbs.
The corresponding Summoning Focus for the Tempest Trials+ event is now available. It’ll run until October 24th. The focus units are Mia: Lady of Blades, Dorcas: Serene Warrior and Myrrh: Great Dragon.
We have entered the final 24 hours of the first round of the Heroic Feats event. Currently, out of the 10 million needed, Heroes with Fury have been sent into battle collectively by all players 7,677,733 times during the event period. To help players reach the goal, for the final 24 hours of the event, a bonus period has been activated, meaning each time you send a Hero with Fury into battle, it counts double towards the goal of 10 million.
Finally, it’s Thursday, which means that Tactics Drills got updated. The new map “Spurred On” can be found in the Grandmaster section.

Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition exceeded Koei Tecmo’s expectations outside Japan
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Koei Tecmo published a notice today, announcing that they are raising the income forecast for the second quarter of the current fiscal year. One of the reasons they stated for doing so was that Hyrule Warriors: Definitive Edition sold much more than they expected it to in the West.
We don’t have any concrete sales numbers for the game’s performance outside Japan, only that it hadn’t yet sold more than a million copies worldwide as of Nintendo’s last financial report on June 30th. Regardless, it seems like the game has been a success for Koei Tecmo and Nintendo.
Fire Emblem Heroes: Heroic Feats – current progress
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
The first round of the Heroic Feats event in Fire Emblem Heroes started yesterday. Collectively, players have to send Heroes with the Fury skill into battle a total of 10 million times until October 12th. The Fire Emblem Heroes Twitter account has now revealed the current progress: as of three hours ago, i.e. 72 hours until the deadline, Heroes with Fury were used 2,357,376 times, so a bit less than a quarter of the goal. At this rate, it’s going to be pretty close, but doable.

Nightshade coming to Nintendo Switch on December 20 in Japan
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
D3 Publisher and Red Entertainment are bringing the otome visual novel Nightshade to Nintendo Switch. The game will launch in Japan on December 20th. Although a localization and a release in other regions has not yet been confirmed, the game is listed as having English language support. The Steam version of the game is also already available in English, so a Western release of the Switch version seems pretty likely, all things considered.
