RPG Maker MV

It’ll be a few more days until RPG Maker MV arrives on Switch in the west, but we have footage of the English build now. Check out the gameplay below.

RPG Maker MV is due out for Switch on September 8.

Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition

Square Enix has shared a message from Araki Ryoma, the director of Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles Remastered Edition.

The game experienced significant online play issues at launch, which apparently happened due to servers exceeding their capacity. Maintenance on August 29 “has led to comparatively stable running thereafter.”

Ryoma has also shared details on update plans. A couple of issues will be addressed soon and the host for online sessions will be able to skip boss introduction cut scenes and myrrh drop scenes.

Here’s the full message from Ryoma:

Super Mario 3D All-Stars

Walmart will be providing a special gift when consumers purchase Super Mario 3D All-Stars. You’ll be given an exclusive sticker set, which we have pictured above. While other retailers in North America haven’t shown any bonuses, we’ll keep an eye out for additional goodies.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars launches for Switch on September 18. Pre-order the game on Walmart here.

9 Monkeys of Shaolin

9 Monkeys of Shaolin won’t be arriving until October, but there’s an opportunity to try out the game early. A demo has started to appear on the Switch eShop.

We’ve only been able to locate it in PAL regions thus far, though it should be offered in other regions soon, including North America. In the meantime, if you create a Nintendo Account in a region like the UK, you should be able to download the demo without any issues. Switch being region free certainly comes in handy.

Pokemon Masters

Sensor Tower is reporting that Pokemon Masters EX managed to bring in $75 million from player spending in its first year. With that amount, it’s the second highest grossing Pokemon title on mobile – only behind Pokemon GO.

Here’s a further breakdown on the game’s first year:

Mana Spark - Forgotten Crypts

Starting today, Mana Spark players on Switch can get their hands on new Forgotten Crypts DLC. The action RPG has added a new character, new scenario and enemies, and more.

Here’s a rundown of the DLC:

Minecraft

Minecraft has been patched on Switch again and is now at version 1.16.40. With the latest update, a couple of issues have been addressed.

Below are the official patch notes:

Kamen Rider: Memory of Heroez

Bandai Namco has issued a second character gameplay video for Kamen Rider: Memory of Heroez, this time featuring Kamen Rider OOO. Check it out below.

Kamen Rider: Memory of Heroez launches for Switch on October 29 in Japan and Southeast Asia. We have the previous gameplay video featuring Kamen Rider Zero-One here.

After Pikmin 3 Deluxe was announced for Switch, the original Pikmin 3 was removed from the Wii U eShop. There’s good news though: the game has returned. You can purchase a digital Wii U copy directly from the Wii U eShop or through Nintendo’s website. It’s also still at the Nintendo Selects price of $19.99.

It’s unclear what exactly is happening with these Wii U removals. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze for instance, is currently unavailable (at least at this exact moment) following its Switch release. Super Mario 3D World is still up on the Wii U store despite its Switch announcement yesterday.

Today’s development did at least bring about good news for Pikmin 3. Here’s hoping it remains on the Wii U eShop.

Thanks to Jake and DAMMITLOUIE for the tip.
