Maria The Witch coming to Switch soon, pre-load available in North America
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 3 Comments
The eShop has updated with a new game for Switch. As shown in a new listing on the store, Maria The Witch is coming soon. It should be available on November 9 for $4.99, assuming nothing changes.
In the game, you play as… Maria, who is a witch. You’ll need to navigate through a variety of stages and worlds. Different features are included such as a magnet that attracts items that are far away. We have more details and a trailer below.
What’s really interesting here is that Maria The Witch can be pre-loaded in North America. Pre-loading with third-party, indie releases isn’t something we’ve seen on Nintendo platforms a whole lot, especially on Switch. Hopefully it’s a sign of things to come.

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 4 Comments
When Rayman Legends Definitive Edition came to Switch, its performance wasn’t in the best shape. Fortunately, Ubisoft has been working on the game since and has released a patch. A new update just went live this week.
The new Rayman Legends Definitive Edition specifically addresses the game’s performance. According to Ubisoft, it “reduces loading times between levels and fixes frame rate-related issues as well.”
Thanks to Stevie M for the tip.
