Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 23 Comments
Around the launch of Super Mario Odyssey, Japanese website 4Gamer conducted an interview with producer Yoshiaki Koizumi. It was a pretty big discussion, with Koziumi touching on all sorts of points. He talked about how Nintendo went about developing the game, the “Jump Up, Super Star” theme song, Pauline’s inclusion (an interesting note on Nintendo’s original plans for her), the higher age rating compared to past titles, and more.
Towards the start of the interview, when asked about the theme of Super Mario Odyssey being “journey”, Koizumi first described that their initial concept was to make “a new Mario that continues to stick in people’s minds” and they thought of new ideas that couldn’t be put into past Mario games. Among them, the one that can be put in rather well was the term “journey”.

Final Fantasy XIV director still interested in a Switch version, “positive discussions” taking place
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 63 Comments
The possibility of Final Fantasy XIV on Switch is something we’ve heard about for awhile now. Director Naoki Yoshida first mentioned the interest there back in 2015 when Nintendo’s console was still known as NX. He’s reiterated that interest a few different times throughout 2017.
Fortunately, nothing has changed. Yoshida still wants to make Final Fantasy XIV happen on Switch since they want to reach as many people as possible, and apparently “positive discussions” are taking place. The only requirement he has is for everyone to play in the same world.
Splatoon 2 version 2.0.0 accidentally removes the Great Zapfish, will be fixed
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 6 Comments
Nintendo began distribution the new, major update for Splatoon 2 last night. Version 2.0.0 added a ton of content, including stages, gear, and so much more.
One unintended side effect of the update relates to the Great Zapfish. Strangely, after applying the patch, it is removed entirely. Nintendo did at least say on the Japanese Twitter page for Splatoon 2 that this will be addressed with a future update.
Players can see the Great Zapfish after finishing Splatoon 2’s Hero Mode. You can spot it flying in the Inkopolis Square, though it’s not entirely clear what prompts the appearance.
