The Sexy Brutale will be patched on Switch to improve performance and resolution, address tech issues
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 3 Comments
Tequila Works brought The Sexy Brutale to Switch last week. Although the game itself is generally considered to be quite good, unfortunately, the Switch port has not gone over well. We’ve been starting to hear that it’s plagued by technical issues.
Tequila Works is at least on the case. In a tweet sent out on the official Twitter account today, the studio promised that a patch is in the works to improve performance and resolution, and to address other problems.
Sexy Brutale fans,
We wanted to let you know that we are working on a patch for the Switch version. The patch is to improve performance and resolution on handheld and TV mode, to solve some freezing issues, and to fix some text strings. We hope it can be ready next week!— TheSexyBrutale (@SexyBrutale) December 13, 2017
Inversus Deluxe has already sold more copies on Switch than Steam, catching up to PS4
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 1 Comment
Inversus Deluxe is doing very well on Switch. Hypersect told its fans on Twitter that the Switch version has already sold more copies than the Steam version. Thing is, the Switch edition has been around for ten weeks, while the Steam release popped up over a year ago.
Here’s the tweet in question:
After being out for 10 weeks on #NintendoSwitch, INVERSUS has sold more copies than it has in over a year on Steam! (and it has been through multiple large winter/summer/etc sales on Steam)
— INVERSUS (@InversusGame) December 12, 2017
Hypersect also indicated that the Switch version of Inversus Deluxe is quickly catching up to the PlayStation 4 version, which is also more than a year old:
PS4 has also been out for a year and did far better than PC. Switch is on trajectory to overtake but not there yet. Xbox is least populated atm.

Of Mice and Sand: Revised coming to Switch next week
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments
Earlier this year, Of Mice and Sand landed on 3DS. That same game is now coming to Switch with some extras as Of Mice and Sand: Revised.
The premise of the game involves handling a desert craft and its rodent crew on a ship. You can build facilities and make food for breeding the mice with different items. As the ship develops, more mice will join in, allowing for more jobs to be taken on. It seems that the Switch version will have new events, maps, and enemies.
We have a bunch of additional details about Of Mice and Sand: Revised below, along with a trailer.
