Series composer wants to make a new Rhythm Heaven for Switch, wants fans to be more vocal to Nintendo
Posted on 4 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The Rhythm Heaven series has been dormant for a few years now. But if Rhythm Heaven series composer Tsunku has his way, he’d eventually get a new entry on Switch.
Tsunku said that he wants a new game on the console. Additionally, he’d like for fans to be more vocal to Nintendo about making it happen. He feels Rhythm Heaven and Switch are a good match since you can play it both alone or together with family and friends.
The last Rhythm Heaven game was Rhythm Heaven Megamix. That game came out in Japan in 2015, followed by the west in 2016.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons NPC dialogue has players wondering if an art wing is coming to the museum

Just like previous Animal Crossing games, New Horizons has its own museum. Players can collect bugs, fish, and fossils and have them displayed. Once one of these items is donated to Blathers, they’ll show up in the museum.
Could that museum be expanded in the future? Some dialogue from Fang, one of the game’s NPCs, has players speculating about the possibility.
The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt sold around 700,000 copies on Switch in 2019

Despite coming out many years later on Switch, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt has still managed to sell a significant amount of copies on the platform. In 2019, the open world RPG shifted around 700,000 copies on Nintendo’s console.
That tidbit comes from CD Projekt Red’s new management board report. A chart included in the document shows that 11 percent of The Witcher 3’s overall sales were on Switch last year. Remember that the title debuted in mid-October on the system, so it was on the market for less than three months in 2019.
Here’s a look at the chart:
