[Review] Lichtspeer: Double Speer Edition
Posted on 7 years ago by Jakob Vujovic(@jakovujo) in Switch eShop | 1 Comment
System: Switch (eShop)
Release date: September 7, 2017
Developer: Lichthund
Publisher: Crunching Koalas
Lichtspeer hinges on its own awareness of the nonsensical retro-techno Norse premise that it strikes the player with. “Achtung” it explains in a preface, “nothing you are about to see will make any sense.” This ancient Germanic spear-throwing game from a future perpendicular dimension is a load of nonsense – but it was intriguing. Just enough so to uncover a tight and surprisingly demanding score attack game.

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 4 Comments
A new patch has been issued for Namco Museum on Switch. If you’ve downloaded the game, version 1.0.1. is available.
The patch notes are as follows:
– Improvement of input delay on some titles
– Game operation stability improvement
– Revising issue of displaying improper numbers on some ranking scores
* Some way to display ranking is changed
Bandai Namco also says that the input delay fix is just an improvement. The few frames delay is impossible to avoid due to the nature of Switch’s hardware. It’s impossible to be fixed completely.

Pokemon Gold/Silver for the 3DS Virtual Console sold over 50,000 copies at retail in Japan
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News | 1 Comment
Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver hit the 3DS Virtual Console last week. As was the case in Europe, Nintendo offered boxed versions. Media Create doesn’t have any sales data on this front, but Famitsu has thankfully come through with a bit of data.
Famitsu reports that Pokemon Gold and Pokemon Silver sold 56,013 units collectively. The site does not include digital sales in that figure, and the split between the two versions is unclear. Gold/Silver are actually at the top of Famitsu’s chart, slightly edging out Pokken Tournament DX. It’s definitely a solid debut.
