Level-5 has been a staunch supporter of Nintendo platforms for many years. This will continue with Switch, as the company is already confirmed to be on board. Just don’t expect any titles immediately.

In an interview with Vandal, CEO Akihiro Hino said Level-5 won’t have any games ready for Switch’s launch. As for why, he explained that they want to “find out the best way to get the most out of the console” and “how to take advantage of it.”

Hino’s full comments:

“We plan to make games for Nintendo Switch, but I think it’s very important to find out the best way to get the most out of the console. For that reason, we won’t have any titles at launch, but we’ll work with it as soon as we figure out how to take advantage of it.”

Level-5 is working on several projects, including Lady Layton, The Snack World, Inazuma Eleven Ares, and Megaton Musashi. Some of these are planned for 3DS, and a couple may end up on Switch as well. Megaton Musashi probably won’t be ready until 2018, so it might make more sense to create it for Switch rather than 3DS.

If the latest rumor is to be believed, Switch will contain 4GB of RAM. That’s according to Emily Rogers, who has been spot-on with most speculation about the system so far.

Why is this noteworthy? Well, Switch would effectively be doubling up on the Wii U in this area. Wii U only offered 2GB of RAM, so 4GB would be a significant jump.

The latest issue of Famitsu has shared a listing of the top 30 best-selling games in Japan for the month of September 2016. You can check out the full results below.

It was over a year ago when we heard about Slain! coming to Wii U. Unfortunately, it now seems that it’s unlikely for the eShop.

When asked about the status of Slain! on Wii U, the game’s developer said:

“No, we can’t confirm Wii U date, or that it is happening just yet. We were hoping it would but sales on that platform are just too weak to justify the port from what we have seen.”

Slain! was originally featured in an announcement from Nintendo last March about games in development for the Wii U eShop. In fact, the game still has a listing on Nintendo’s North American website.
