Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Ori and the Blind Forest: Definitive Edition is largely the same game on Switch as it has been on other platforms. However, developer Moon Studios did make one noteworthy improvement.
When the game originally released, Ori’s sprites were animated at 30 frames per second. But now on Switch, they’ve been updated to 60 FPS. This was achieved thanks to continued improvements with Moon Studios’ engine, director Thomas Mahler says.

According to a GamesIndustry report, the Switch Lite sold roughly 13,500 units during its first week in the UK.
While that may seem like a low number, debut sales were not expected to be high. The device should pick up steam closer to Christmas, as was the case for the 2DS. That portable system sold 200,000 units in about two months, though sales primarily increased after the October half-term holiday.
As for Switch in general, it’s sitting at a total of around 1.9 million units sold since launch. It’s slightly better than the 3DS, which reached 1.9 million sales by the end of November 2013.
