Namco Museum Archives

As previously announced, Namcot Collection is releasing for Switch in Japan this month. Although there hasn’t been any news for the west, it appears that we should be getting an official update very soon.

Two listings on the Microsoft Store have popped up for Namco Museum Archives Vol. 1 and 2. Information included on the pages sounds pretty much in line with what we’ve heard about Namcot Collection.

Namcot Collection

Bandai Namco has come up with a unique incentive to pick up all ten launch titles for Namcot Collection. As a special bonus, players will receive a retro demake of 2007’s Pac-Man Championship Edition.

Masahiro Sakurai

There’s nothing quite like Super Smash Bros. speculation. Given the series’ popularity and mystery surrounding unannounced characters, fans can’t help but wonder about who could end up in the game. However, because of this curiosity, director Masahiro Sakurai has to be careful as to what he shares.

Writing in his latest Famitsu column this week, Sakurai mentioned that he tends to “play a ton of games”. But since fans may begin to speculate and there could be misunderstandings, he generally doesn’t reveal what he’s been playing.

Here’s our translation of the excerpt:
