Nintendo Switch

This week’s Switch firmware update has been a bit of a mess for some. After Nintendo began distribution of version 12.0.3 on Monday, it was pulled due to various issues. The update went back up soon after.

Unfortunately, some Switch owners who installed version 12.0.3 are still experiencing issues. There are reports floating around that impacted users cannot download purchased games from the eShop.

XSEED Games today teased the first details for its E3 2021 lineup ahead of the show, which takes place virtually between June 12 and June 15.

Akiba’s Trip: Hellbound & Debriefed, Shadowverse: Champion’s Battle, and Rune Factory 5 will all be featured. It also looks like three announcements are in store.

Here’s additional information about each game:

No More Heroes III

Marvelous and Grasshopper Manufacture have readied a new introduction trailer for No More Heroes 3. Get a look at the video below.

No More Heroes 3 launches for Switch on August 27.

Blood Bowl 3

Nacon and Cyanide are back with another trailer for Blood Bowl 3. This time around, we have an introduction to the Elven Union team.
