One of the major announcements coming out of today’s Nintendo Direct was the reveal of Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. The game is set in the same universe as Fire Emblem: Three Houses.
Fire Emblem: Three Houses launched for Switch in July 2019. We also saw Fire Emblem Warriors in September 2017, though that was more of a spin-off in the sense that it was a hack-and-slash crossover title handled entirely by Koei Tecmo.
Below is an official overview for Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes:

The February 2022 Nintendo Direct will be kicking off in just a bit, and we’ve set up a live stream. We actually have separate embeds ready to go for North America, Europe, and Japan.
As was announced yesterday, the event will begin at 2 PM PT / 5 PM ET / 10 PM in the UK / 11 PM in Europe. We mentioned this previously, but it’ll focus on Switch games launching during the first half of 2022 – though Nintendo could go beyond that window for some games. In any case, we’re in for 40 minutes of news.
You can watch the February 2022 Nintendo Direct as it happens with the live stream below. We’ll also have a live blog going throughout the event plus additional coverage on the main site during and after it airs.

Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop, Videos | 0 comments
Publisher Funcom and developer Mighty Kingdom have finalized a release date for Conan Chop Chop. The game is coming to Switch on March 1, 2022. Additionally, a demo will go live on February 17.
Conan Chop Chop was revealed for Switch in June 2019, but since then, it’s been delayed many different times – it’s certainly up there as a game that’s seen many different release windows. After it was moved back once again last July, Funcom and Mighty Kingdom promised that “there will be no more delay announcements”. The two sides decided not to share any new launch windows until the project was completely done and ready to go.

Pokemon Legends: Arceus update out now (version 1.0.2)
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Original (2/8): Pokemon Legends: Arceus has been updated to version 1.0.2, and while we don’t have the official patch notes, we have some idea as to what it entails.
Early reports indicate that there are localization changes as well some script changes. Additionally, a bug has apparently been fixed in which players were unable to catch Cherrim when it changed to Sunshine Form in the middle of battle. At least for now, that’s all we know.
