Attack on Titan 2: details on Dot Pyxis, Keith Sadies, online modes, character customization, more
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 3 Comments
Koei Tecmo has updated the official English website of Attack on Titan 2, elaborating on what was revealed in Famitsu magazine earlier this week. First up are some biographies for the newly revealed playable characters:
Dot Pyxis
The Commander of the Garrison Regiment. Highly trusted by Premier Zachary, he was given full authority in defending humanity’s most vital lands in the southern territories. Although he displays remarkable adaptability and the qualities of a strong leader, his open-ended thinking that at times borders on the extreme earned him a reputation as a “natural eccentric”. This reputation is further complemented by his unrivaled love for a drink. It is well-known that he carries his flask everywhere, even while delivering commands on the front lines.

Japan seems to be suffering from a Switch software shortage
Posted on 6 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch | 10 Comments
Pretty much all throughout 2017, the Switch was very hard to come by due to its popularity. These hardware shortages were especially bad in Japan, although Nintendo’s home country received a fairly major restock in December, causing Switch hardware sales to rise. However, it seems like this seems to have shifted the shortage problem to the other side of the market – it seems that certain Switch games are now hard to come by.
Japanese video game retailer GEO reports that first-party games like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and 1-2-Switch are completely out of stock at all of its distribution centers nationwide and they are currently unable to order any additional units from Nintendo. It’s a similar situation at other retailers like Amazon Japan, where many first-party games are also out of stock.
Naturally, a software shortage is not as bad as a hardware shortage – all games can of course also be purchased digitally, but it would still be in Nintendo’s best interest to fix this shortage as soon as possible.
