Steep was one of the first games confirmed for Switch. Way back in January, Ubisoft announced plans to bring it over to the console along with a slate of additional titles. But we really haven’t heard much since then, aside from speculation here and there regarding its status.

Despite the silence, Steep is apparently still happening on Switch. Ubisoft is said to be working on the game’s frame rate, and it’s in the optimization phase. We just have to hope that it won’t be terribly long until Steep is ready to appear on Switch.

Thanks to Juan MV for the tip.

Capcom brought the original Mega Man Legacy Collection to 3DS. But as things stand now, the sequel won’t be on any platform – be it 3DS or Switch.

Fans have at least been hoping that Capcom would port Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 to Switch. However, in an interview with TechnoBuffalo, producer Kazuhiro Tsuchiya directly stated that there are currently no plans.

The only sort of small hint we’ve seen about Mega Man Legacy Collection 2 on a Nintendo platform came about earlier this month. It was discovered that the game’s code contained several references to 3DS. It’s possible that Capcom is thinking about bringing the compilation to Nintendo’s portable, or was considering it at one point before scrapping those plans.

Thanks to Anthony for the tip.

Yesterday, Nintendo revealed the most-used characters in ARMS starting with version 2.1. A brief follow-up report was shared since then regarding fighters with the highest winning percentages.

In first place is Twintelle. Ribbon Girl is in second, followed by Min Min in third. Indeed: all three are female fighters.

Nintendo also hinted that Max Brass was in last place. As the game’s newest playable character, maybe that isn’t entirely surprising.
