Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
SEGA has shown quite a bit of Valkyria Chronicles 4 since its original announcement, but we’ve yet to really see the game in action. That changes next week.
The first live gameplay from Valkyria Chronicles 4 will debut on December 27 at 8 PM Japan time during a new broadcast. YouTube, LINE Live, and Periscope will be hosting the stream. Valkyria Chronicles fan Hashiyan Kousaka will act as the MC, and special guests Naomi Ohzora (Nikola Graf voice actress) and Yukiyo Fujii (Chiara Rocino voice actress) will be appearing.
We’ll post the gameplay here as soon as it airs.

Zelda: Breath of the Wild Switch item distribution (12/20/17)
Posted on 7 years ago by Joshua in News, Switch | 4 Comments
Today’s item distribution is themed after Kass. The director of the game, Hidemaro Fujibayashi, opens with a special tip about Kass’s songs: “[After talking to him once during the Champions’ Ballad DLC pack 2,] I advise you to take a moment and talk to Kass a second time for a special performance.” Apparently, if you leave the area without talking to him a second time, you lose out on the ability to hear this special performance.
The item distribution, in honor of Kass, is as follows: Roasted Bird Drumstick (x2), Raw Bird Drumstick (x2). Yes, Mr. Fujibayashi is implying that Kass is probably delicious. All you need to do to get them is view the news report on your Switch and press the button at the bottom of the post!
Eating bird drumsticks to honor a bird…? In the closing words of the director, “hopefully Kass won’t mind too much!”
