Katamari Damacy Reroll is exclusive to GameStop in the US
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Katamari Damacy Reroll will be sold physically when it launches next month. The only downside is that it will be retailer-exclusive in the United States. GameStop’s latest ad shows that Katamari Damacy Reroll will only be available at its stores.
It’s likely that the same also applies to Canada. If we had to guess, Katamari Damacy Reroll is probably exclusive to EB Games in that region.
WILL: A Wonderful World rated for possible physical release
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
WILL: A Wonderful World made it to Switch last month. As of now, it can only be found on the eShop. But could we be seeing a physical version as well?
This week, WILL: A Wonderful World received a new rating from the ESRB. It’s noteworthy due to the publisher listed: PM Studios. PM Studios has worked with Circle Entertainment and Flyhigh Works to bring a number of Switch games to retail, including Voez, Deemo, Mercenaries Saga Chronicles, and the recently-announced Opus Collection. WILL: A Wonderful World could be next.
It’s worth noting that news about Opus Collection’s physical version originally leaked from the ESRB as well. We could be seeing a similar situation here with WILL: A Wonderful World.

Nippon Ichi “incredibly grateful to Nintendo” and says Switch is an “ideal piece of hardware”
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News, Switch | 0 comments
Nippon Ichi has made it known a few times in the past just how well Disgaea 5 Complete did on Switch. Earlier this year, it was revealed that the game was sitting at 200,000 copies sold in the west alone.
In last month’s issue of EDGE, Nippon Ichi president Sohei Niikawa reiterated Disgaea 5 Complete’s success on Switch, stating that “it sold incredibly well both in Japan and abroad.” Niikawa also spoke about Nintendo’s strong support of the company having visited their offices to teach the developers about Switch. Right now he believes it’s an “ideal piece of hardware” since the dual console and portable nature makes it appealing to both the west and Japan.
