Last week, the Fire Emblem Cipher Festival event was held in Japan. Those who attended were treated to something special. It’s not online at the moment, but fans were shown a character trailer for Tharja in Fire Emblem Warriors.
Based on reports from those who were present, Tharja is apparently a Robin clone. Also, one of the new History Maps is based on Chapter 9 of Fire Emblem Awakening, where she’s recruited. The video also showed that during her victory movie, she poses like her official figure.
Don’t expect Minecraft: Bedrock Edition on Switch anytime soon
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Usually when a developer announces that something has been submitted to Nintendo, that tends to mean it’s close to release. Unfortunately, that isn’t the case with the Bedrock Edition for Minecraft on Switch.
It was recently mentioned during an official live stream on Twitch that Bedrock Edition had been submitted to Nintendo. But during another stream a few days ago, it was clarified that Bedrock is “not done” on Nintendo’s console and the team has “quite a ways to go”. Bedrock is also not in final certification.
Switch was originally supposed to receive the new features and content from Bedrock Edition last year. It’s intended to unite all versions of Minecraft, including support for cross-platform play.

When Cross Tag Battle was initially announced, RWBY’s inclusion was arguably the most surprising inclusion. Producer Toshimichi Mori explained how the collaboration came to be in an interview with GamerHubTV.

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
SEGA made several announcements during its Sonic panel at SXSW today. To close out the event, the company teased an entirely different project.
Aside from the teaser below, we don’t have anything to go on. But intuition would tell you that it’s some sort of Sonic-related racing game – especially given past rumors over the past couple of months.
No name or anything else for this one. SEGA only said that it isn’t a sequel to any of the Sonic games released thus far. Hopefully we’ll hear more in the near future.
