The Pokemon Company comments on Pokemon Legends: Arceus structure, confirms it’s not open world
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
There’s been a lot of talk surrounding Pokemon Legends: Arceus as of late and whether or not the game will be open world. When it was revealed many months ago, a number of people compared it to Zelda: Breath of the Wild. But more information has been shared in August and September, and after combing through all of the latest content, fans came to the conclusion that an open world probably wouldn’t be in the cards.
Based on new comments from The Pokemon Company, Pokemon Legends: Arceus will be less like Breath of the Wild and more comparable to Monster Hunter with no real open world. That’s because Jubilife Village is your base of operations, and you’ll then go to different open areas in Hisui after taking on tasks.
The full statement from The Pokemon Company reads:

Switch OLED has its own screen protector, Nintendo wants you to leave it alone
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Did you know that the Switch OLED comes with its own screen protector? This is officially referred to as an “anti-scattering adhesive film”. And you’ll want to leave it alone.
Nintendo’s latest Switch system features an OLED display, which is quite different than the plastic LCD panel we’ve seen with the console previously. To protect the screen against scratches and prevent glass from breaking into sharp shards if damage were to occur, the film is used in the new model.
