Nintendo highlights strong digital sales, Switch eShop navigation to be improved
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments

Nintendo also said that eShop navigation will be improved on Switch for “better discoverability”. With more and more games coming to Switch each week, it’s difficult for titles to stand out and for consumers to find them. It sounds like Nintendo will be looking to improve the situation in the future.

It’s been announced that Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes will feature Hyper Light Drifter gear that you can wear. Further specifics haven’t been provided, so it’s currently unclear if this is just a cosmetic bonus.
