Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has posted another update to the Smash Bros. Blog for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time around, we have an introduction to the Alucard Assist Trophy.
Here’s the overview:
Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp – future updates include inventory increase and helper log
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt O'Keefe(@matt_okeefe) in Mobile, News | 0 comments
A sneak peak of features the Pocket Camp developers are working on revealed we should expect two quality of life improvements in the near future. Those are:
Inventory Increase: the maximum capacity for furniture and clothing items will each be increased from 1,500 to 2,000.
Quarry Helper Log: You will be able to check a list of players who helped you get into Shovelstrike Quarry.
No release schedule was mentioned but given the frequency of Pocket Camp updates it probably won’t be too long before these changes roll out.
Super Mario Party will reportedly only support Joy-Cons
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt O'Keefe(@matt_okeefe) in News, Switch | 0 comments
According to an article from nextn.es, Super Mario Party will only be playable with Joy-Cons, leaving out Pro Controllers and third-party accessories. This shouldn’t come as a giant surprise, given many of the minigames in the title will likely revolve around the Joy-Con’s unique features, but it’s sure to be disappointing for many who prefer traditional controls.

What’s the best rogue-like that snuck onto the Switch?
Posted on 6 years ago by Eric Zauch in Features, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Do my eyes deceive me or has the Switch become the new perma-home for perma-death games? For me, there is no doubt that since the Switch launched, I have developed an obsession with playing my go to rogue-like for a few minutes before bed. Those few minutes quickly turn into hours if I’m not careful, which is why these games really should come with a ‘bed time’ warning. During my insomnia I made the decision to write a list of some of my favorite rogue-like games to sneak their way onto the Switch. I’d love for you all to join the conversation and tell us about your favorite rogue-like games in the comments!
