Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Paladins initially came to Switch back in June. But when that happened, system owners could only obtain the game by purchasing the Founder’s Pack.
Those who have been waiting to jump in on Paladins might be interested to hear that the fantasy team-based shooter has become free-to-play on Switch, similar to other platforms. You no longer need to fork over $29.99 in order to experience the title. Players who previously bought the Founder’s Pack were able to immediately unlock all Champions and their voice packs now and forever, and were provided with exclusive cosmetics.
If you plan on downloading Paladins on Switch, you’ll need 6.1GB of free space.

In this event you’ll be at the helm of race cars sporting over 1,000 horsepower and are specially designed for this discipline. In Hillclimb events you’ll also be steering through tracks running along cliff faces, which are as dangerous as the scenery is amazing.
And a trailer:
Finally, a recap of other disciplines available in V-Rally 4:
Extreme-Khana: here you must master drifting as you combine speed and precision in trap-packed courses.
V-Rally Cross: confront seven opponents who are hell-bent on making you bite the dust on dirt/asphalt tracks.
Buggy: your all-terrain vehicle promises to be a unique experience on these particularly rugged tracks.Each discipline offers a unique different driving experience that will put racing fans’ skills to the test and force them to learn new techniques. This versatility will be of great use in V-Rally 4’s Career Mode, which lies at the heart of the game’s experience and takes drivers on an action-packed trip around the world.

Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
A couple of weeks ago, Bossa Studios put out a video that seemed to hint at a Switch version of Surgeon Simulator. The studio made it official today, and announced that Surgeon Simulator CPR (Co-op Play Ready) is coming to Nintendo’s console.
In Surgeon Simulator CPR, you’ll play as Nigel Burke – a would-be surgeon with a less-than-conventional toolkit – in which you perform terrifying transplants in theatre, high-pressure procedures in an ambulance, and anti-gravitational operations in space. The notoriously difficult controls are still present here, but making the experience special are some new Switch features.
