Posted on 3 years ago by Bryce(@brodee922) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town has reached an impressive sales milestone in its first month of release. Marvelous has announced that the game has sold over 700,000 worldwide units (counting both digital and physical sales) with a short time on the market.
The western version of Story of Seasons: Pioneers of Olive Town has only been out for three days (launching March 23), while the Japanese version has been out since February 25, 2021. This is quite the sales accomplishment given this small time of being released and the fact the game is only on the Switch.
Hopefully, the sales will continue to climb and Marvelous will give more updates on the sales numbers soon.

Balan Wonderworld final boss fight has possibility of causing seizures
Posted on 3 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Update: Square Enix has issued a statement, which says that the day-one patch takes care of the issue. Read the full statement here.
Original: Ahead of Balan Wonderworld’s release tomorrow, players should be aware that the final boss fight is physically dangerous. Unfortunately, due to the graphics and effects that appear on-screen, it may cause seizures. We’re also hearing that even those that aren’t photo-sensitive epileptics may find the fight troublesome to watch.
As mentioned by Game Informer, what’s shown “is not just using flashing effects,” but “it rapid-fires a series of white on background flashes.” We’ve included a video of the action below, but we’d advise watching it at this point.
