Fire Emblem Heroes: datamine hints at an upcoming support system
Posted on 8 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in Mobile, News | 8 Comments
A support system has been a staple feature of Fire Emblem games for a long while now. However, it has been absent from the series’ recent mobile release, Fire Emblem Heroes. It seems like that might be changing soon though. The game’s latest update has been datamined, and among other things, such as the stats of the Choose Your Legends heroes, the update also contains the following line:
MID_TIPS_0018: Strengthen your allies through\nAlly Support! Allies who are\npartnered up will gain a stat\nboost when they fight near\neach other.\n\nYou can find Ally Support\nunder Advanced Growth in the\nAllies menu.
So far, this is just a tip that can appear on a loading screen and apparently nothing else about this supposed support system has been found in the game’s files, so don’t count on it being actually available in the game soon. Still, it’ll be interesting to see how Intelligent Systems will actually implement it in a game with so many characters.

[Review] Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle
Posted on 8 years ago by Philip(@P_Trah) in Reviews, Switch | 24 Comments
System: Switch
Release date: August 29, 2017
Developer: Ubisoft
Publisher: Ubisoft
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a bigger turnabout regarding the reception of a game than I have with Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle. When the first major leak regarding Ubisoft’s newest Nintendo crossover game happened, the general reaction was one of confusion and general displeasure. That was the case up until Ubisoft’s E3 2017 press conference in June, where Mario + Rabbids was finally unveiled in full with the help of Mario creator Shigeru Miyamoto himself. That, compounded with a truly heartwarming moment from the game’s creative director Davide Soliani and the overall presentation of the game, quickly garnered new feelings of excitement and hope that Mario + Rabbids was something to look forward to. So, after months of anticipation, is Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle able to keep that feeling of hope and excitement alive, or does it leave us wishing the Rabbids would have just stayed home?
Nintendo reveals ARMS fighters with highest win rates from top 3% of super skilled players
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 1 Comment
Nintendo has been on a roll with ARMS rankings as of late. Within the past week, we’ve heard about fighters who have been used the most and characters who have the highest win rates.
Nintendo’s latest rankings are based on the top 3 percent of super skilled players. Determined by win rate, first place is awarded to Max Brass, the (current) newest character on the ARMS roster. Helix is second, and Byte & Barq followed in third place.
It’s interesting to see the fighters advanced players use. It sounds like if you want to be at the top, Max Brass might be your best bet.
続いて、上位３％の超上級者のみで集計した…『天界の勝率１位』を発表します！
第１位は…マックスブラス！やりました、全体ではビ(自粛)だった会長、天界では僅差の１位！次いで２位にDNAマン、３位にバイト＆バーク！
全体ランキングとの画面の差…！目がぁ…！ pic.twitter.com/mylAqfvDg1— ARMS（アームズ） (@ARMS_Cobutter) August 29, 2017

Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 10 Comments
Soldam: Drop, Connect, Erase is currently on track to launch in North America in September. While Dispatch Games hasn’t made it known officially, we’d be stunned if that window wasn’t met.
First, Soldam: Drop, Connect, Erase is listed for September 20 on the eShop. Other retailers like Best Buy and GameStop list it for September 26. The same goes for GameFly, which is often spot on with its listings.
