That goal was reached within one week after its launch on July 14. Story of Seasons on 3DS was the previous record holder.

PES 2021

FIFA has appeared on Switch dating back to the console’s launch year, but in contrast, Pro Evolution Soccer hasn’t had a release on the system yet. However, that could change in the future.

Latin America brand manager Robbye Ron expressed optimism about bringing PES to Switch in an interview with RPP. A good portion of that positivity stems from the fact that Konami is now moving over to Unreal Engine – technology that works well with the platform.

Ron shared the following regarding PES on Switch (translated by Google):

Paper Mario: The Origami King

Paper Mario: The Origami King players have encountered a significant glitch in the game. Unfortunately, it blocks any sort of progression if encountered, and your save file will essentially be rendered useless.

It’s possible to encounter the glitch at Shangri-Spa, which is accessed after battling the first four streamers. You’ll be given a VIP ticket to access the Spring of Rainbows. At the entrance, a character will permit entry, but takes the ticket and it’s removed from your inventory. That means if you happen to leave the area, you can’t return. There’s no way to get the card back, and it seems as though the only option you have currently is to delete your save file.

Here’s a closer look from Nintendo Unity:
