No More Heroes 1.5 finally dubbed in English after more than a decade
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, Videos, Wii | 0 comments
It took over a decade, but No More Heroes 1.5 has finally received an English dub.
No More Heroes 1.5, a motion comic, was included with the Hopper’s Edition of No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle in Japan. It was intended to bridge the gap between the series’ first two entries. Suda51 wrote the story, and apparently kept it secret from most Grasshopper Manufacture staffers while it was being created.
PlatinumGames’ Hideki Kamiya talks Bayonetta 3 Switch exclusivity
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
PlatinumGames’ Hideki Kamiya has commented on the Switch exclusivity surrounding Bayonetta 3.
Bayonetta 2 is only available on Switch (and previously Wii U). Similarly, Bayonetta 3 will only be playable on the console. Both of these titles are published by Nintendo.
In traditional Kamiya fashion, he toys with fan expectations and responds sardonically. He starts off almost encouraging the idea of Bayonetta 2 and 3 on other platforms, only to quickly dash those hopes with logic and a sarcastic “good luck”. It’s safe to say that chances of these games appearing on PlayStation or Xbox consoles are slim to nil right now.

Castlevania Advance Collection and Actraiser Renaissance acted as notable shadowdrops.

Super Robot Wars 30 pre-orders open, Asian version supports English
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Super Robot Wars 30 was announced in a Japanese Nintendo Direct earlier this year. Very soon after the reveal, Bandai Namco followed up by confirming plans to release the game in Asia. It’s especially noteworthy since that region will have English support.
Play-Asia has now opened pre-orders for the Asian version of Super Robot Wars 30. You can reserve it here.
Since Switch is region free, you can play through the game without any issues. Bandai Namco hasn’t any plans to bring Super Robot Wars 30 to the west on Switch, so the Asian version will probably be your only way to play in English on the system.
