Another new character will be revealed for the arcade version of Pokken Tournament on November 1. On the official Japanese website, Bandai Namco teased the upcoming news. The announcement will take place during a Niconico stream per usual.

News will drop at roughly the following times:

– 4 AM PT
– 7 AM ET
– 12 PM in the UK
– 1 PM in Europe

Thus far, Darkrai and Scizor have been added to Pokken Tournament in arcades. Both were spotted in update files from the Wii U version several months ago along with Empoleon. Because of that, it’s likely then that Empoleon will be the newest character for Pokken Tournament.

With Halloween taking place in just a few days, Starfall Studios has prepared a new Sneaky Ninja video showing off the Graveyard Gauntlet area. View it below.

Sneaky Ninja is currently targeted for Q1 2017, mid-January on PC and soon after for Wii U. Starfall Studios is aware that this puts the game close to Switch’s launch, but there’s not much that can be done. That being said, we were told the team has no “concrete plans to port to the Switch yet, but we’d love to do that once we get more info”.

Update: The big question is solved: Dungeon Hearts DX is slated for November 10. Not too far away indeed!

Original: We don’t know when Dungeon Hearts DX is coming, but it should be very soon. That’s because the game’s file size is actually floating around, and it should be roughly 900 MB. Dungeon Hearts DX fell off the map a bit after it was last targeted for February, but it’s fortunately isn’t too far away now.

13AM Games has been keeping Runbow updated over the past year with new content, but now the studio has confirmed that DLC is coming to an end. Shantae is the latest addition to the game, and now they’re just about ready to move on.

Now the question is: what’s Runbow’s future? It’s been a success for 13AM Games, so that’s something the team is trying to figure out currently.

In an interview with Hardcore Gamer, the developer mentioned:

“We are still figuring out where we are going to take this IP next. There’s a lot that can be done and we love all different types of games. We’ve had fans requests RPGs and Fighting Games in the Runbow family, but the flip side is that it might be nice to work on something else for a bit. I know it’s not much of a concrete answer, but the truth is we are still figuring it out!”

Whatever 13AM Games ends up doing with Runbow, it’ll likely be a hit. Runbow was one of the more successful indie games on Wii U.

The Switch’s main portable unit contains a port towards the bottom center of the device. Wondering what that’s for? According to a source speaking with Let’s Play Video Games as well as someone “close to the production of the reveal trailer”, that’s a USB-C port used to charge the handheld while away from the Switch Dock. However, due to its position, it won’t be possible to charge Switch when the kickstand is in use.

Early reports about Switch indicate that it doesn’t have the best battery life out there. By going from a proprietary charger standard to a high-capacity, non-proprietary cable Nintendo may be looking to improve things for gamers. This would allow for Switch to be quickly charged using a portable battery pack or a USB port.
