Square Enix on why the Secret of Mana remake isn’t planned for Switch
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 101 Comments
Square Enix’s new Secret of Mana remake isn’t currently planned for Switch. That’s somewhat surprising given the company’s support of the console thus far. We also can’t forget that Seiken Densetsu Collection also came out in Japan earlier this year.
Redbull recently spoke with producer Masaru Oyamada, and managed to ask why the remake isn’t in the works for Switch. His answer was fairly sound, in which it was explained that development started before Switch was announced. Though Square Enix can’t immediately say that the game will be on Switch, the company would like “to continue listening to the various requests from our fans.”

The Japanese Twitter account has posted the download cards for Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon. The images reveal how big of a download the two games will be.
Pokemon Ultra Sun and Pokemon Ultra Moon both require 3.6GB of space. It’s not an exact amount, but that should amount to roughly 30,000 blocks.

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 5 Comments
Nic Makin worked on a number of games at Rare. Kameo: Elements of Power and Perfect Dark Zero are just a couple of projects he helped develop in the past.
Makin opened his own studio MakinGames back in 2014. He’ll soon be coming out with the 2D scrolling brawler Raging Justice, which we now know is planned for Switch.
The Switch port of Raging Justice hasn’t started just yet. He’ll first need to get access to development hardware. But regardless, bringing Raging Justice to Switch is a “priority.”
We have more information about Raging Justice below, along with a trailer.

Fire Emblem Heroes: most popular support pairings revealed
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in Mobile, News | 6 Comments
The support system, a staple of the Fire Emblem series, was recently added to Fire Emblem Heroes. Given the game’s nature, there are no actual support conversations between the characters; instead, the system’s purpose is to increase the stats of the characters. Today, the official Fire Emblem Heroes Twitter account revealed the 20 most popular support pairings that players were using as of September 29th.
Given the nature of the system, most of the characters on the list are those that are currently dominating the game’s meta and those that synergize well. However, some players clearly opted for more “canonical” support pairings such as Ephraim & Eirika, Ike & Soren and the #1 most popular pairing, Alphonse & Sharena.
