Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 3 Comments
Splatoon 2’s launch is less than two weeks away. In Japan, Nintendo is gearing up for the big day with new ads that are appearing in various places.
Splatoon managed to do extremely well in Japan even though Wii U wasn’t the hottest console around at the time. With Splatoon 2, its release is definitely going to be massive. The only unfortunate part of it all is that Nintendo won’t have nearly enough Switch supply to cover the demand.

Despite what we heard last year, Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night may not opt for a staggered content model. If this is something the team decides to pursue, some features and content may come after the game’s launch.
That seemed like the plan back in 2016. However, creator Koji Igarashi has now said that a definitive decision has not been made. It’s something that’s being considered, and though the approach has certain benefits, “it’s something we’ll have to discuss later.”
Igarashi told Apptrigger:
