Rad Rodgers all but confirmed for Switch with new retailer listing
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Rad Rodgers for Switch might be one of THQ Nordic’s worst-kept secrets right now. A number of signs have pointed to its release over the past few months, including listings on GameFly and the ESRB.
Adding to that is another listing, this time coming from Amazon Canada. The retailer even shows the game’s boxart. Based on Amazon’s accurate history as well as the packaging image (not to mention GameFly and ESRB’s listings), it’s pretty much safe to assume at this point that Rad Rodgers will be coming to Switch. It’s just a matter of when, and when THQ Nordic will make an announcement.

Rumor: Nintendo wants a Zelda game on Switch every year
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo shipped Zelda: Breath of the Wild for Switch’s launch in 2017. Hyrule Warriors, another Zelda-themed title, was added to the system’s library earlier this year. This streak may continue in the future, as Eurogamer claims that “Nintendo is keen to have a Zelda game launch on Switch every year.”
The company has many possibilities at its disposal going forward. Last weekend, Zelda producer Eiji Aonuma seemingly teased Skyward Sword for Switch. Nintendo could also bring over the Wii U versions of Twilight Princess and Wind Waker. There also hasn’t been a new 2D Zelda in awhile, and we’re bound to get another 3D entry at some point – just not next year.
Meanwhile, a lot has been made about a recent comment from Game Informer editor Imran Khan who said on a podcast that “the next Zelda will probably be sooner than we think.”
Thanks to Jake for the tip.

Nintendo says you’ll see a few cutscenes in Smash Bros. Ultimate: World of Light, but more about loot grind and getting Spirits

When Super Smash Bros. Ultimate director Masahiro Sakurai announced the World of Light mode for the game, he made it clear that it’s not quite like Subspace Emissary from Brawl. But after showing the intro, some fans might have unrealistic expectations as to how many cutscenes will be present. Nintendo Treehouse’s JC Rodrigo recently clarified to Game Informer that there will be a few cutscenes, “but it’s really more on focusing on the loot grind, and that flow of getting Spirits.”
Rodrigo stated the following about World of Light:
