Rumors emerged a few years ago that Criterion was asked to make a new F-Zero game on Wii U for Nintendo. Alex Ward, the studio’s founder who left back in 2014 for his own company Three Fields Entertainment, indicated soon after that the talks weren’t serious. During last week’s episode of the Game Informer Show, he clarified the situation once and for all.
When asked about those original rumors regarding Criterion and F-Zero, Ward stated:

West of Loathing could have had a first-person gunfighting system. That’s according to developer Asymmetric, who shared that information in an interview with Nintendo.
Why was the first-person gunfighting idea ultimately scrapped? Asymmetric says the team “just couldn’t figure out how to make it funny enough.”

GameStop says Wolfenstein: Youngblood won’t come with a cartridge
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Wolfenstein: Youngblood will be sold at retailers, but not in the way you’d expect. GameStop’s listing for the title states that a cartridge isn’t included. Instead, the box apparently contains a download code.
We don’t have any reason to doubt GameStop, but this is something Bethesda hasn’t clearly stated in the past. Those hoping for a true physical release might be out of luck here. Unless GameStop is mistaken, Bethesda won’t be selling Wolfenstein: Youngblood in cartridge form.
Thanks to JPSWITCHMANIA for the tip.
More evidence of Raiden V: Director’s Cut for Switch surfaces
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Raiden V: Director’s Cut was rated for Switch in Taiwan last month. Adding on to that, the game has received its first retailer listing.
GameFly has a page up for Raiden V: Director’s Cut showing a tentative June 30 launch. You may recall that the original rating had a potential boxart, and a physical version is further supported by this listing.
We expect Raiden V: Director’s Cut to be officially announced for Switch soon.
Yacht Club Games on how the Cyber Shadow partnership happened, “deeply involved in giving design feedback”
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Yacht Club Games announced a brand new title last week. In partnership with Mechanical Head Studios, the ninja game Cyber Shadow is bound for Switch. Rather than working on the game directly as it did with Shovel Knight though, Yacht Club has more of a role as a publisher.
In an announcement this week, Yacht Club said it reached out to Cyber Shadow’s creator a couple of years ago. The company was apparently “the only team” considered to help bring the project to fruition. Yacht Club also won’t be a traditional publisher since the company is “deeply involved in giving design feedback – imparting some of the lessons learned from the Shovel Knight saga along the way.”
