Switch

The company Arc System Works has just announced that Kunio-kun: The World Classics Collection will be launching on the Switch in Japan next year.

Below is the information for Kunio-kun: The World Classics Collection translated, courtesy of Gematsu.

When the New 3DS was announced, Nintendo had some commercials in Japan featuring Japanese singer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu to show off the new product.

Well it seems the outfit that Mario wore in one of advertisements for the New 3DS has found its way in Super Mario Odyssey as an outfit that Mario can wear. The outfit now known as the “Fashionable Outfit” was shown in one of the gameplay footage video we posted up earlier, which you can check out here.

Thanks to @everse_yoon for the tip.

Early accounts from this week’s Famitsu suggested that Steins;Gate Elite is bound for Switch. Based on the latest information from the magazine, it’s now absolutely official. Steins;Gate Elite is hitting Switch in Spring 2018 in Japan.

The new version of Steins;Gate is a “full animation adventure game”. It’s totally different from the series’ traditional style. Famitsu also says that every second of the anime has been captured for the game, and new routes not present in the show are in the works. WhiteFox, the same animation studio that produced the anime, is in charge of production.

A number of announcements were made during last week’s Nintendo Direct. Among these was a Switch port of Dragon Quest Builders, slated for Spring 2018.

We won’t need to wait much longer for additional news. During the Tokyo Game Show later this week, Square Enix will have additional information to share.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 is also coming to Switch. Square Enix announced the sequel a few weeks ago, though it’s without a final release window. It may debut towards the latter end of 2018.

The latest episode of Nintendo’s Japanese show Nyannyan Neko Mario Time has now gone live. We’ve included it below.

The Japanese-exclusive Dragon Quest X: All-In One Package will be a hefty download on Switch. An updated eShop listing for the game reveals the file size requirement.

As far as the base download goes, Dragon Quest X takes up 9.4GB. However, an extra 24GB of free space in order to play. Nintendo also warns that the required free space could increase in the future.

Steins;Gate Elite seems to be on track for Switch. Earlier today, Famitsu posted a small image of an article included in its new issue due out tomorrow. Only PlayStation platforms had been previously been confirmed, but it looks like Switch will be included as well.

Famitsu’s preview only offers a very small look at the opening two-page spread of the article. However, we’re able to see that a red label is included, which is generally reserved for Switch games. Unless Famitsu is messing with us, Steins;Gate Elite will be coming to Switch.

It’s worth noting that SEGA lists Steins;Gate Elite for Switch on its official Tokyo Game Show website. The consensus, however, was that this was a mistake. Famitsu’s latest issue apparently proves that the listing was originally spot on.

Some interesting news came about earlier in the summer when it was discovered that Switch systems come with a built-in emulator. Things became even more interesting when fans learned that the NES version of Golf is hidden away within the system’s firmware. An unlock method has allegedly been discovered, but unfortunately, it sounds like most users are going to be left out until 2018.

Above all else, Switch’s cached network time needs to be set to July 11, the day that late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata passed away. This means if you’ve connected your Switch to the internet at all, you’re out of luck since there is no way to revert back to July 11. The date variable for NES Golf only references Switch’s internal, user-specified date if the system has not been connected to the internet.
