Netflix’s official comment is the following: “We are still exploring the opportunity with Nintendo, but don’t have definitive plans to share at this time.” We’re also hearing that Netflix will send an update with a similar message on @Netflixhelps.
You’d have to think that, in due time, Netflix will land on Switch. It’s just a matter when.

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 67 Comments
SNK Heroines: Tag Team Frenzy was unveiled for Switch this week. It was one of a few announcements made during the new Nintendo Direct Mini.
In both North America and Europe, NIS America will be in charge of publishing. The company published a message on Twitter stating that the game won’t have anything removed or replaced in the west, perhaps to ease concerns about possible censorship.
The tweet is as follows:
The content released globally will contain the same costumes and content. Nothing will be removed or replaced in the Western release. As for controls, it is more accessible for all players, and not just the hardcore fighting gamers 🙂 You will use your entire controller.
