Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana review for Nintendo Switch
Posted on 3 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: January 7, 2024
Developer: Falcom
Publisher: Marvelous
Despite arguably being dethroned as Falcom’s flagship series over the years by the Trails series, Ys has nonetheless seen a rising amount of success since the release of Lacrimosa of Dana. The standalone nature of the games make it an easy series to jump onto at any point, and although it’s a difficult series to access in its entirety outside of PC ports thanks to several of the games being decades old and trapped on outdated platforms, it’s gradually making its way onto modern consoles through remakes and remasters. Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana is the latest chapter in Adol’s expansive adventures to come to Nintendo Switch, and is another strong instalment despite its age and notably different gameplay style from its successors.

Rumor: Metroid Prime dev Retro Studios was once working on a music RPG
Posted on 3 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
At one point in time, Retro Studios apparently had a project in development as a music RPG.
The company shipped Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze on Wii U in 2014. After that, there was essentially a decade-long gap without a new game from Retro Studios. Tropical Freeze was ported to Nintendo Switch a few years ago and Metroid Prime Remastered dropped in 2023, but outside of that, nothing made it to market.
