Amazon delaying some physical copies of Animal Crossing: New Horizons

If you’ve ordered a physical copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons from Amazon, there’s a chance that it may not arrive on launch day. Customer reports are surfacing on social media regarding delay messages from the retailer. Instead of being delivered tomorrow, affected copies now have a release date of March 24.
In light of the coronavirus, Amazon has started to prioritize medial supplies and household staples, which have taken precedence over other items like video games. One of the retailer’s warehouses in Queens, New York was impacted after an employee tested positive for COVID-19. Amazon ended up closing down that warehouse for a thorough cleaning.

Posted on 5 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 0 comments
There are quite a few otome visual novels on Nintendo Switch already, and another one will soon join their ranks. Gunka o Haita Neko will launch in Japan on June 18; it will cost 7,150 Yen. The game sees Tama, princess of a race of cat people, having to choose between an arranged marriage or finding love with a mysterious human that appeared from the sky. An English localization hasn’t been announced so far, and it’s fairly unlikely that will change. The game has been released on a few other platforms so far and all releases have been Japan-only.
