Steins;Gate Elite seems to be on track for Switch. Earlier today, Famitsu posted a small image of an article included in its new issue due out tomorrow. Only PlayStation platforms had been previously been confirmed, but it looks like Switch will be included as well.

Famitsu’s preview only offers a very small look at the opening two-page spread of the article. However, we’re able to see that a red label is included, which is generally reserved for Switch games. Unless Famitsu is messing with us, Steins;Gate Elite will be coming to Switch.

It’s worth noting that SEGA lists Steins;Gate Elite for Switch on its official Tokyo Game Show website. The consensus, however, was that this was a mistake. Famitsu’s latest issue apparently proves that the listing was originally spot on.

Some interesting news came about earlier in the summer when it was discovered that Switch systems come with a built-in emulator. Things became even more interesting when fans learned that the NES version of Golf is hidden away within the system’s firmware. An unlock method has allegedly been discovered, but unfortunately, it sounds like most users are going to be left out until 2018.

Above all else, Switch’s cached network time needs to be set to July 11, the day that late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata passed away. This means if you’ve connected your Switch to the internet at all, you’re out of luck since there is no way to revert back to July 11. The date variable for NES Golf only references Switch’s internal, user-specified date if the system has not been connected to the internet.

The artwork has been removed via a patch.

Note that the update process is somewhat different here. To get the latest version, visit “Your Downloads” on the eShop.
