Cosmic Star Heroine creator “optimistic” about a Switch port
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 4 Comments
Zeboyd Games has unfortunately struggled with getting Cosmic Star Heroine on Switch. Despite reaching out to Nintendo numerous times, creator Robert Boyd hasn’t been able to make a port happen.
Fortunately, the game could finally appear on Switch via a third-party. Boyd told USgamer that a contractor has reached out to Zeboyd about a port, “and their terms were quite favorable.” While nothing has been signed just yet, Boyd is “optimistic.”
Cosmic Star Heroine originally debuted last year to a generally favorable reception. Here’s some information about the game, along with a trailer:

Darkest Dungeon Switch patch incoming, will fix unbeatable DLC
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
Darkest Dungeon arrived on Switch last week. Before you dive into the Crimson Court DLC, you should be aware that it can’t be completed as things stand now.
The bug here is that The Courtyard dungeon starts over from the beginning when players leave and later return. Because of its difficulty and the fact that this particular dungeon was designed for players to make multiple trips, it’s essentially impossible to finish. That’s on top of a gameplay element involving a disease that spreads among your party if they don’t defeat bosses in the Courtyard.
Fortunately, Red Hook Studios is on the case, and a patch has already been submitted to Nintendo. The company has confirmed that the update will also address a problem relating to the controls.
ATTN Switch Owners: We are currently internally testing a FIX for both the Controller Button Input issue and the Baron Quest Saving issue. Will be submitting to Nintendo as soon as resolved fixed.
