Best Buy Canada shows placeholders for three Switch games supposedly being revealed at E3
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 43 Comments
If Best Buy Canada’s E3 page is anything to go by, at least three new Switch games could be announced next week.
The retailer currently has placeholders images up on its main page. Each one says “To be revealed at E3”.
Now, we do know that one of them isn’t Super Mario Odyssey as it already has a listing. Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle could be a candidate for sure.
The one thing to be slightly concerned about is that Pokken Tournament DX and Fire Emblem Warriors don’t have their own listings on Best Buy Canada right now. But surely they aren’t considered to be new reveals, right? In any case, it’s always a good idea to maintain some skepticism when dealing with retailers. We’ll know what the future holds very soon.

Square Enix is preparing an in-game manual for Seiken Densetsu Collection
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 13 Comments
Seiken Densetsu Collection lacks any sort of instructions. For new players, that might be frustrating. Not all games necessarily need manuals, but there’s a reason why Seiken 3 had one (and it was 48 pages) back during the Famicom era – it can be complicated.
Square Enix is looking to fix the situation by addressing player requests. For now, the manuals for the games included in Seiken Densetsu Collection can be viewed here. Producer Masaru Oyamada also apologized for any trouble the lack of in-game explanations caused and acknowledged that players felt it was difficult to figure out how to play. Square Enix is preparing an in-game manual as well, but it will take some time.

More Splatoon 2 weapon news: Splatterscope returns, changes to weapons from Testfire
Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Screenshots, Switch | 4 Comments
The Splatoon Twitter account has been releasing tons of weapon info this week, and today is no exception.
First up, we have confirmation that the Splatterscope will return in Splatoon 2. Just like in the first game, it has the Splash Bomb sub weapon, in addition to having the new Sting Ray special. What’s interesting to note is that unlike the Splat Charger, you won’t be able to keep your charge.
Next up, we have some info on the weapons that were available in the Global Testfire as they have seen some changes since then. The Splattershot now has the Splashdown special, instead of the Tenta Missiles. It still has the Burst Bomb sub.
The Splat Roller keeps its Splashdown special, but now has the Curling Bomb sub weapon.
The Splat Charger still has the Splat Bomb sub and Sting Ray special, but you can now move a little faster while aiming with it.
The Splat Dualies now have the Burst Bomb sub weapon instead of the Curling Bombs and the Tenta Missiles special instead of the Ink Jet.
