Switch is already home to a few different shoot ’em ups. However, Brazilian studio Loomiarts hopes to stand out with Squadron 51, which offers a very unique visual style.
In Squadron 51, you’ll take on extraterrestrial enemies in aircraft battles with an aesthetic inspired by sci-fi movies from the ’50s. The game will feature six levels with a variety of environments, four aircrafts, and local two-player multiplayer. You’ll find that the story unfolds through cut-scenes and dialogue between pilots during gameplay.
Squadron 51 is planned for the end of 2018. We’ve posted a gameplay video below.

“Currently no plans” for Netflix on Switch
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch eShop | 47 Comments
Multimedia and streaming apps have been on the top of many people’s Switch wishlists. Last year, NicoNico was made available on the Switch in Japan, followed by Hulu in North America. Netflix seems like an obvious candidate for the system – after all, it even hit the Wii U. However, it seems like that won’t be happening any time soon. Responding to a request for a Switch version on Twitter, the Netflix customer service account stated that there are “currently no plans for Netflix on Nintendo Switch”.
Of course, this doesn’t mean that the streaming service will never be on the system – but it does seem like it’ll be a while until it happens.

Is Freedom Planet coming to Switch? Quite possibly. The image above was posted to the official Facebook yesterday, along with the text: “Are we doing it right?”
Developers often announce their games for Switch by showing them running on the console. GalaxyTrail seems to be doing it in a very similar way, though what’s shown on top of the system here is the soundtrack from the physical PC version.
Freedom Planet made it to Wii U back in 2015. GalaxyTrail is also working on a sequel, which should eventually come to Switch after the initial PC debut.
