Umihara Kawase Fresh! will have an interconnected Metroidvania-style map
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
A year after it was originally teased, Umihara Kawase Fresh! was announced for Switch this week. Success has been sharing a few tidbits on Twitter.
Studio Saizensen will still be leading the way on development and Toshinobu Kondo is back as character designer. Also, the “rubber engine” from the previous titles will still be used in order to maintain the fundamental feel.
In past entries, Umihara Kawase games had a traditional stage structure. But for Umihara Kawase Fresh!, there will be an interconnected Metroidvania-style map with a quest system. Less skilled players will be able to take the prescribed routes while hardcore players can take shortcuts and speedrun.
Nintendo’s site says Splatoon 2, Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu / Eevee, others don’t support cloud saves
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Update 2: Same notices are also on the game pages for NBA 2K19, FIFA 19, Dead Cells, and Dark Souls: Remastered.
Update: The game pages for Pokemon: Let’s Go, Pikachu / Eevee also have the same notice. Both may not support cloud saves as well.
Original: Nintendo Switch Online launches on Switch towards the end of this month. When it does, subscribers will be able to take advantage of new cloud saves, though not every game will be eligible for the feature. Splatoon 2 may fall into that category.
On Nintendo’s North American website, the Splatoon 2: Starter Pack page states: “This game does not support Save Data Cloud backup.” Unless this is an error or a misunderstanding, cloud saves won’t be supported here. We’ll know for sure once the service officially starts this month.
