Aokana: Four Rhythm Across the Blue to receive English release on Switch
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Over a year ago, the visual novel Aokana: Four Rhythm Across the Blue arrived on Switch in Japan. An English version is now in the cards following the latest Kickstarter success story.
NekoNyan, a company dedicated to visual novel localizations, recently opened a Kickstarter for a physical version of Aokana on PC. The campaign quickly raced past its €10,000 funding goal, and has done so well that the Switch version will be translated into English. The Switch release will be digital-only (at least as things stand now), but new features will be added: a music mode, sprite viewer, and voiceline bookmarker. No word on launch timing just yet.
You can keep track of Aokana: Four Rhythm Across the Blue on Kickstarter here.

Junichi Masuda discusses how most people think Pokemon is made by Nintendo rather than Game Freak
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Pokemon is understandably associated with Nintendo. The series’ games have appeared on the Big N’s platforms going all the way back to the Game Boy, and it’s always touted as one of the company’s top properties. However, those who closely follow gaming news understand that Game Freak has been developing the core titles since Pokemon started.
Of course, not everyone knows that. Game Freak’s Junichi Masuda recently said that he asked 200 people who they thought made Pokemon. The result? Close to 100 said Nintendo. Masuda said that some people even think that he’s a a Nintendo employee, when he works at Game Freak instead.
When Masuda returns to his hometown, he’ll overhear people express disbelief to each other that he is actually Junichi Masuda. They say things like, “Someone from Nintendo would never come to a place like this.”
