Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
Development is currently underway for Shin Megami Tensei V on Switch, though it’ll likely be some time until its release. Shin Megami Tensei IV, meanwhile, has been out for a while now – in two versions no less, SMT IV and SMT IV: Apocalypse (subtitled “Final” in Japan). If you own a Japanese 3DS and have been meaning to catch up on SMT IV, Atlus has got you covered: on April 19, the Shin Megami Tensei IV Double Hero Pack will be released in Japan, which will contain both the standard game and SMT IV: Final. It will cost 4,980 Yen.
No word yet on whether or not this will be released in the West, though it seems somewhat unlikely.

Wall Street Journal report: Nintendo prioritizing peripherals over hardware revisions with the Switch
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The Wall Street Journal’s Takashi Mochizuki has published another report on the Switch. Mochizuki has a pretty good track records when it comes to information regarding Nintendo, but still: keep in mind that the following is not 100% confirmed.
According to his sources, Nintendo is looking to boost Switch sales in the near future using peripherals rather than hardware revisions. Nintendo’s handhelds saw numerous and constant revisions and re-releases over the years, but apparently they are holding off on those for the Switch, at least for now. Instead, Nintendo will focus on better manufacturing and shipping of the current and only model. Also, the Switch’s USB-C port will supposedly be used for additonal network-related features and peripherals.
Nintendo president Tatsumi Kimishima recently talked about extending the Switch’s life cycle beyond the usual five or six years. According to “one person familiar with development plans”, holding off on hardware revisions for now will be one of the ways Nintendo hopes to accomplish that.
