The opening timing for Super Nintendo World will be announced around the fall, Universal Studios has confirmed.

Fairy Tail Switch performance detailed
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
With Fairy Tail just a couple of weeks away until launch, we’ve learned more about how the Switch version is shaping up. Developer Gust informed Nintendo Everything that the game runs at 30 frames per second. You’ll get a 1080p resolution when docked and 720p portable mode. Gust didn’t indicate that there will be any fluctuations, but we’ll undoubtedly have the final verdict upon release.
Outside of discussing performance, we were told that the team “optimized interactions for the background and effects for the Switch version”. However, since the game was always planned as a multiplatform title, Gust “worked hard to ensure that the quality was uniform across all platforms.”
We’ll have more from our interview with Gust regarding Fairy Tail soon.

Wales Interactive and FMV Future announced Gamer Girl this week. But after it received a significant amount of backlash on social media, the announcement was pulled, and Wales Interactive has now shared a statement.
Those who have criticized Gamer Girl feel that it perpetuates some of the issues that female streamers are forced to tackle like sexual harassment. The multi-branching FMV title has players taking on the role of a moderator for a streamer, “who’s back online after the mysterious disappearance of her friend Becky.” Wales Interactive’s announcement mentioned that you “control the stream, level up mod powers, guide Abi’s choices and uncover the threat she faces by an anonymous predator who hides in the stream’s chat.”
