Malzeno, Felyne Malzeno Palico, and Canyne Malzeno Palamute GameStop

Original (9/6): Monster Hunter fans and amiibo collectors have been wondering when we’d be seeing the Malzeno, Felyne Malzeno Palico, and Canyne Malzeno Palamute figures in the United States. Thankfully, the wait is almost over. All of these products will be available tomorrow, September 7.

The Malzeno figure has technically been available since the rise of Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak. This was included in the game’s collector’s edition. However, there’s been no way to get it individually, and the Felyne Malzeno Palico and Canyne Malzeno amiibo have thus far not been available in the United States.

Splatoon 3 world map

Nintendo has shared an official image that provides a look at the Splatoon world map, which shows just how far away Splatsville in Splatoon 3 is compared to the settings of the previous two titles.

The image was posted today as part of an interview with the game’s developers. Series producer Hisashi Nogami, director / art director Seita Inoue, director Shintaro Sato, and head of sound Toru Minegishi participated in the discussion.

Inoue noted that “Inkopolis Plaza in the first title and Inkopolis Square in the second title are both located in the heart of the city, and they are only about as far apart as Shibuya Station and Harajuku Station on the train in Tokyo.” Splatsville, which is where Splatoon 3 takes place, is set further away to allow for some distance “with a completely different climate.”

Splatoon 3 reviews

With Splatoon 3 set for release in just a few days, reviews for the Switch exclusive are starting to come online. Nintendo lifted the embargo just a few moments ago.

Splatoon 3 builds on the shooting gameplay of its predecessors. This time around, the sun-scorched desert of Splatlands is featured. There are new moves available to dodge attacks and cover more ground, plus a new bow-shaped weapon to sling ink and new special weapons, such as the scuttling Crab Tank. Turf War, Salmon Run, and the Story Mode featuring the “Return of the Mammalians” campaign are the main modes. Splatfests are back, but now feature Tricolor Turf War – a mode where three teams compete at the same time and the first-place team must defend themselves in a unique 4-v-2-v-2 battle.

Here’s the roundup of reviews for Splatoon 3:

The King of Fighters XIV and King of Fighters XV have yet to appear on Switch, but SNK would have interest in releasing ports.

However, technical limitations seem to be preventing ports from happening. Oda mentioned that SNK “would love” to put both The King of Fighters XIV and The King of Fighters XV on Switch and “are always thinking about it, but at the moment there are no plans.”
