Zerodiv bringing Zero Gunner 2 to Switch soon, other arcade games to follow
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 5 Comments
Zerodiv brought Strikers 1945 and Gunbarich to Switch last month. The company outlined other arcade ports heading to the console in a blog post today.
The next game we can expect on Switch is the 3D shooter Zero Gunner 2, which will be out sooner rather than later. An entry in the Sengoku series will follow next, then a game from the Gunbird and Strikers 1945 franchises this year as well.
We should also note that Zerodiv has plans that go beyond ports. It sounds like the developer is cooking up something original as well.

SteamWorld Dig 2 sales off to a very strong start on Switch
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 6 Comments
SteamWorld Dig 2 has only been out for a few days, so it’s tough to make too much out of the game’s sales thus far. But with that said, it seems Image & Form is very happy with its performance thus far.
When one fan asked about SteamWorld Dig 2’s sales on Twitter, the developer responded:
I can't (or won't, doesn't matter) divulge actual figures, but #SWD2 has started way, way better than both the original Dig and SW Heist. ->

-> We have seen only the first-day sales on Switch… when we first saw the figures, we were sure we were reading them incorrectly. But…!!

This is definitely encouraging to hear. Hopefully SteamWorld Dig 2 continues to sell in the weeks and months to come.

Is Dispatch Games teasing localizing of Penguin Wars for Switch?
Posted on 8 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 3 Comments
City Connection brought a new Penguin Wars game to Switch this week in Japan. It’s a remake of the original title of the 1985 NES game, with overhauled visuals, online play, and more.
Although no announcements have been made regarding an English release, that could be changing at some point. Messages from Dispatch Games on Twitter suggest that something could be on the horizon.

Random fact – Most penguins live in the Southern Hemisphere.

This could just be Dispatch Games having a bit of fun and showing enthusiasm for Penguin Wars. Then again, Dispatch Games does have a connection with City Connection. The two sides worked together to localize Soldam: Drop, Connect, Erase for the west, including a physical version. If something is planned, perhaps an announcement will be made in the near future.
Thanks to James McKee for the tip.
