May 2: A remake of Chrono Trigger is apparently in the works. That information comes from Dragon Quest creator Yuji Horii, who allegedly shared the information at Comicon in Naples, Italy.
We do have confirmation that Horii was present for the event and was on hand delivering some sort of talk, based on various attendee reports. Regarding Chrono Trigger, he apparently let that information slip during an interview. After the host whispered something in his ear, Horii covered his mouth – indicating that he said something he wasn’t supposed to.

Rumor: Arc System Works leak confirms Nintendo Switch 2 cartridge theory

We’ve been hearing that unlike Switch 1, there aren’t many options when it comes to sizes. Nintendo Switch 1 offered developers and publishers various options including 8GB and 16GB. However, at least currently, it’s claimed that 64GB is pretty much the only option on Nintendo Switch 2.
It’s now looking like this may very well be true. Arc System Works appears to have been hit with an internal hack in which someone was able to steal tons of data. We don’t want to get into that too much, but the end result is that it’s brought along some Nintendo Switch 2 news.
