No More Heroes 1.5

It took over a decade, but No More Heroes 1.5 has finally received an English dub.

No More Heroes 1.5, a motion comic, was included with the Hopper’s Edition of No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle in Japan. It was intended to bridge the gap between the series’ first two entries. Suda51 wrote the story, and apparently kept it secret from most Grasshopper Manufacture staffers while it was being created.

bayonetta 3 exclusivity exclusive

PlatinumGames’ Hideki Kamiya has commented on the Switch exclusivity surrounding Bayonetta 3.

Bayonetta 2 is only available on Switch (and previously Wii U). Similarly, Bayonetta 3 will only be playable on the console. Both of these titles are published by Nintendo.

In traditional Kamiya fashion, he toys with fan expectations and responds sardonically. He starts off almost encouraging the idea of Bayonetta 2 and 3 on other platforms, only to quickly dash those hopes with logic and a sarcastic “good luck”. It’s safe to say that chances of these games appearing on PlayStation or Xbox consoles are slim to nil right now.

shin megami tensei v bicorn

Another demon trailer for Shin Megami Tensei V has now arrived, which gives fans a good look at the creature known as Bicorn. Its origins go back to Shin Megami Tensei II on the Super Famicom.

Super Robot Wars 30

Super Robot Wars 30 was announced in a Japanese Nintendo Direct earlier this year. Very soon after the reveal, Bandai Namco followed up by confirming plans to release the game in Asia. It’s especially noteworthy since that region will have English support.

Play-Asia has now opened pre-orders for the Asian version of Super Robot Wars 30. You can reserve it here.

Since Switch is region free, you can play through the game without any issues. Bandai Namco hasn’t any plans to bring Super Robot Wars 30 to the west on Switch, so the Asian version will probably be your only way to play in English on the system.

Amazon UK is taking pre-orders for the Metroid Dread bundle here. The game launches on October 8.

WarioWare games are a collection of simple “microgames” that are fast and often frantic.

In our latest entry, our cast is back again, this time on Switch with more microgame mayhem and yet another twist on gameplay.
