Video: Testing temperature readings with Switch games and overheating the system
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 10 Comments
Spawn Wave conducted some tests with Switch to see what the system’s temperature is like while playing multiple games. The results are fairly interesting.
Perhaps as you would expect, Switch runs at a higher temperature when playing docked in comparison to using the battery during portable play. With Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, the temperature reading went from roughly 41 degrees Celsius to about 49.

Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Wii U eShop | 12 Comments
Rayman Raving Rabbids, the game that kicked off the entire Rabbids franchise, is launching on Wii U tomorrow. Ubisoft is publishing it on the North American eShop as a Wii download for $19.99.
Here’s the overview of Rayman Raving Rabbids from Nintendo’s website:
“Hordes of crazed out-of control bunnies have invaded, enslaving Rayman and forcing him to participate in ‘gladiator’ style trials. Help Rayman win his freedom back by entertaining and outwitting these furry foes. Use the most hilarious fighting moves imaginable. Run races on animals, fight in the arena, or mesmerize the bunnies with your dance moves. You can even milk pigs or engage in plunger shooting madness! The possibilities for fun are endless.”
Rayman Raving Rabbids was a launch title for Wii way back in 2006. At the end of August, the Rabbids will be starring in a crossover with Mario on Switch – Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle.

THQ Nordic looking to support Switch “wherever it’s possible”
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 31 Comments
THQ Nordic currently has two games in the pipeline for Switch: Battle Chasers: Nightwar and Sine Mora EX. Speaking with GamesIndustry, business and product development director Reinhard Pollice said that the company is looking to support Switch “wherever it’s possible.” Pollice would have preferred “more beefy hardware but it is what it is, so we just have to work our way around it.”
Pollice’s full words:
“We’ve been in touch with [Nintendo] about Switch for more than a year, so we’ve been looking at it for our current line-up and… we look wherever it’s possible. It’s a bit sad that they haven’t gone out with a more beefy hardware but it is what it is, so we just have to work our way around it.”
Regarding Battle Chasers: Nightwar, Pollice did say that it has been “a challenge to get running smoothly on Switch”. Also, the open-world sci-fi RPG Elex is “just too demanding right now.”
