All network services on Nintendo Switch are currently down; Nintendo are investigating
Posted on 4 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
If you try to access pretty much any online service on your Nintendo Switch right, such as accessing the eShop, you’ll notice that, well, you can’t. Nintendo just sent out a notice that all network services on the Switch are currently unavailable. This has been going on since 17:56 JST, so for a bit over an hour. Nintendo are looking into the problem.
Gear.Club – Tracks Edition listed by a French retailer
Posted on 4 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Rumors, Switch | 0 comments
There are currently two Gear.Club games on Nintendo Switch – Gear.Club Unlimited and Gear.Club Unlimited 2. However, it seems like a third one might be on its way. French retailer Cultura has a listing for “Gear.Club – Tracks Edition”. The game is listed for a release on June 11, 2020, with a price of 49,99 €. However, all the media on the page and the game’s description are just for the first Gear.Club Unlimited. This might imply that this supposed game is a sort of “complete edition” with all DLC included – or it might just be a mistake on the retailer’s part. As such, take this listing with a grain of salt at the moment. Hopefully we’ll hear something official soon.
PEGI ratings for Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune spotted
Posted on 4 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Back in 2018, video game adaptations of popular game shows Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune were released on Nintendo Switch in the US. The games are available both individually and as a retail double-pack called “America’s Greatest Game Shows: Wheel of Fortune & Jeopardy!”. So far, neither game has been available outside the US, but that could now change. PEGI, the age rating agency for many European countries, has now rated both Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune, suggesting that a release of both games in Europe soon is fairly likely.

Genshin Impact details character Xiangling
Posted on 4 years ago by Elias in Switch | 0 comments
Developer miHoyo has posted new details about for Liyue Harbor character Xiangling. Check out the introduction below:
Xiangling (voiced by Ari Ozawa)
“Sit anywhere you like. I can make whatever you want, even if it’s not on the menu!”
The Head Chef at the Wanmin Restaurant and also a waitress there, Xiangling is extremely passionate about cooking and excels at her signature hot and spicy dishes.
Though still young, Xiangling is a true master of the culinary arts with all the skills of a kitchen veteran. She enjoys a good reputation among the hearty eaters at Chihu Rock.
There’s absolutely no need to be nervous if she wants you to sample her latest creation. It will not disappoint. Promise.
Liyue is home to two rival culinary traditions, conveniently named the “Li” and “Yue” styles. Foodies in Liyue are staunch supporters of one style or the other, and have long been embroiled in a bitter battle to prove the superiority of their style.
In this war waged by culinary snobs, ostentation is everything, flavor gets forgotten, and nothing is a simple matter of taste. Much to the consternation of Liyue’s chefs, the Li vs. Yue debate eats up all of the region’s rare cooking ingredients in the pursuit of ever-more-pretentious dishes.
Born into a restaurateur family, Xiangling inherited her fair share of this consternation. But she also chose to inherit the Wanmin Restaurant and become one of the few to push back against the status quo.
“Good food is good food, period!” Xiangling’s mantra is an antidote to snobbery as she sets about creating her imaginative and unconventional dishes.
From a pinch of Mist Flower and a drop of Slime Condensate to a handful of unidentified flying insects and even hilichurls’ wooden clubs, Xiangling is known to be somewhat adventurous with her choice of cooking ingredients.
Naturally, her unique approach leads to the occasional disastrous dish. But Xiangling never gives up, because of what her father has always said to her: “There are many secrets to cooking; the most important of which is passion.”
