Destructoid recently caught up with Guilty Gear director and designer Daisuke Ishiwatari. Ishiwatari spoke about the future of the franchise, and was asked about Switch.

Regarding Guilty Gear possibly appearing on Nintendo’s console, Ishiwatari explained that it might not be a “good match” due to the need for “high quality graphics.” However, he did also say that Arc System Works hasn’t made a final decision and is “still working on that.”

Does the name Virtuos ring a bell? If you paid attention to last year’s release of L.A. Noire on Switch, it may sound familiar. Rockstar worked with Virtuos to bring that title to Nintendo’s console.

The same company looks to be behind the release of another notable Switch re-release. Dark Souls: Remastered has been rated in Australia, showing that Virtuos is working on FromSoftware’s classic for Nintendo’s console. Polish studio QLOC has been rumored to be handling the title for other platforms.

Ratings for Mega Man Legacy X Collection and Mega Man Legacy X Collection 2 popped up in Australia yesterday. It’s a clear sign that when Capcom brings the Mega Man X games to Switch, there will be two separate collections.

We also can’t forget that the mainline Mega Man titles are heading to Switch. For the original Mega Man Legacy Collections, it seems that this will be a single release.
