Pokemon Scarlet Violet frame rate resolution

A new video from Digital Foundry has explored the technical side of Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet, including frame rate and resolution.

Unfortunately, the games just aren’t up to snuff in this department. That doesn’t mean the actual gameplay is bad. Across the board though, the titles are by all accounts disappointing – frame rate, resolution, glitches, and more don’t meet standards that many had hoped for.

Tin Hearts has been delayed, with the game moving to a new 2023 release window. 

The immersive puzzle adventure was announced in March 2021. As part of the reveal, the title was initially targeted for a winter release.

Original (8/31): The Outbound Ghost will be sold physically on Switch, it’s been confirmed. Merge Games will be responsible for distributing the game at retail. Pricing is set at $34.99 / £29.99 / €34.99.

Interestingly, it appears we have a release date – at least for the physical release. The Outbound Ghost will be out in stores on November 25, 2022. Digerati says that the digital launch is still planned for this year on Switch, but didn’t specify an exact date.

Kid Icarus Uprising home console port Masahiro Sakurai

Masahiro Sakurai has given a small glimmer of hope that Kid Icarus: Uprising could one day appear on a home console.

Players can choose the “Intensity” before starting a stage. It’s a risk and reward system since a higher Intensity means the game will be more difficult, but you’ll earn better rewards.

Fire Emblem Engage Emblem Rings

Original (11/22): Nintendo and Intelligent Systems just revealed another trailer for Fire Emblem Engage that highlights the power of Emblem Rings.

As previously announced, heroes from previous games can be summoned. The lineup includes Sigurd, Celica, Lyn, Byleth, Corrin, and Marth. Emblem Rings lets players merge appearances as well as inherit weapons, skills, and more.
