Another Splatfest for Splatoon 2 is in the books. The latest North American competition, which had baseball and soccer going head to head, has concluded. We now have the results.

Team Soccer had a slight edge in popularity. Yet Team Baseball managed to secure 1% victories with both solo and team battles. That was enough to send them to victory, with a final score of 2-1 in favor of Team Baseball.

SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy

In this month’s issue of MCV, NIS America president Takuro Yamashita reveals some very interesting information about Switch. Yamashita revealed a deal is in place with Nintendo on SNK, spoke about how the company’s Switch games are outselling their PS4 counterparts, and gave an update on the performance of Disgaea 5 Complete.

Yamashita first discussed SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy, and revealed some details about working with Nintendo that hadn’t been known previously. Nintendo actually wanted to work with SNK on an exclusive basis, which eventually resulted in a deal. Only the Switch version will be sold physically in the west, and Nintendo will be a distributor that includes buying many units.

Dragon Quest XI might be one of the biggest Switch mysteries at the moment. Even though it was one of the first games we knew about the system, Square Enix has yet to show it any capacity – not even a single screenshot.

It was finally announced at the end of last month that Dragon Quest XI is coming west in September. Unfortunately though, the Switch version still isn’t ready. Square Enix has finally explained why.
