Payday 2 for Switch based on an older version of the game, but future content updates promised
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Just ahead of its launch later this week, there’s been some confusion as to which version of Payday 2 is ending up on Switch. Polygon has now received clarification straight from publisher Starbreeze.
Starbreeze says that Payday 2 will have content up through the “Most Wanted” update – so around mid-2017. That means Switch is one update behind other consoles, which are in turn slightly behind the primary PC edition. This was done in order to have Payday 2 ready for Switch in early 2018, though more content updates are promised for the future.

Even before we truly knew what Switch was, rumors have persisted about Smash Bros. appearing on the new platform by featuring content from the games on Wii U and 3DS. Speculation has now picked up once again.
Emily Rogers, who has been both spot on and occasionally off the mark with Nintendo rumors, claims that a Smash Bros. games will be announced and released for Switch later this year. Rogers further says that it will include new content as well as re-worked content from the Wii U and 3DS games.
Rogers isn’t sure as to how Nintendo will brand the game. It’s possible that it could be a deluxe edition, some sort of sequel, or a full sequel.

The exceptions with video capture for Bayonetta 1 and 2 on Switch, practice mode tip
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Bayonetta 1 and 2 are the latest big games for Switch with video capture enabled on day one. Thanks to the feature, you can record 30-second gameplay clips.
There are just a couple of exceptions. When the songs “Fly Me to the Moon” and “Moon River” are playing, video capture is disabled. However, if you turn off the background music during these segments, the functionality can be used. There’s likely an issue with copyrights pertaining to these two songs.
By the way, in both Bayonetta 1 and 2, you can practice combos when the game is loading. By pressing the minus button once loading is finished, you can keep going in practice mode.
