Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope team’s experience with Switch and Snowdrop engine allowed for bigger scope
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
We recently chatted with Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope producer Xavier Manzanares, and one of the things we asked about is whether the team has been able to do more with the game from a graphical standpoint. After all, Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle came out in 2017, so Ubisoft Milan and Ubisoft Paris have been working with Switch for quite some time now.
Manzanares mentioned that the experience gained with both Switch and the Snowdrop engine has allowed for an increase hope. There are some aspects that may not have been possible a few years ago.
[Review] Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes
Posted on 2 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release Date: June 24, 2022
Developer: Koei Tecmo / Omega Force
Publisher: Nintendo
Warriors games have done exceptionally well at providing a strategic hack-and-slash experience, and Koei Tecmo has done a wonderful job at adapting many different properties into that format. In the case of Fire Emblem, it’s primarily been under the umbrella of strategy RPGs since its inception, but throughout the years we’ve seen it grow and become something more, turning into quite a deep experience. With so much to take into account when expanding on the Fire Emblem universe and given that Warriors games typically provide a straightforward experience, it’s incredible to see Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes essentially become a semi-sequel to Three Houses, as this is not just Fire Emblem Warriors 2, but genuinely feels like a brand-new Fire Emblem game where the battles are essentially replaced with Omega Force’s prowess in action-focused combat. Fire Emblem and Warriors titles both have a long history and have seen some fan favorites, yet marrying them together once more has created arguably one of the best games for both properties.

Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Ubisoft has worked with Mario on two games now as part of its Mario + Rabbids series, but we’ve been wondering if the team would have interest in playing around with another Nintendo franchise. This is something that we posed to producer Xavier Manzanares in a recent interview.
Manzanares said the studio has “tons of dreams”, and thought about “a lot of other characters” when it was initially moving towards working with Nintendo in 2014. On the topic of wishes being fulfilled, he said having Bowser playable in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is “already a dream come true for us”.

The Pokemon series is no stranger to pre-release information leaks, and something similar may now be happening with Pokemon Scarlet and Pokemon Violet. Although the titles are still a few months out, unconfirmed details have been popping up over the past few days.
The source seems to have originated from a Chinese leaker, and Twitter outlets like CentroLeaks and Pkmnleak have been rounding up the information. Tidbits cover new Pokemon, which creatures are / aren’t returning, the Pokedex, a new gimmick, and more.

Nearly thirty years after its original launch, Live A Live is finally seeing a global worldwide release and will be localized into English for the first time. As it turns out, there were originally plans to bring the title outside of Japan.
Takashi Tokita, the director of Live A Live, told One More Game that Square Enix was originally considering localization. But since “sales prospects in Japan did not seem particularly promising”, it was never released in other regions.

June 2022 NPD: Switch leads all consoles in unit sales
Posted on 2 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
According to the latest NPD report, Switch was the best-selling console in the United States for the month of June in terms of unit sales. The same also applies for 2022 thus far as a whole.
Switch did lose out to the PlayStation 5 in both categories when it comes to dollar sales. However, one factor to keep in mind is that Sony’s console is more expensive – the cheapest version is $400 while the other model is $500. The Switch Lite costs $200 and other models are priced at $350.
This month’s NPD report also includes the latest on software sales. In June, Mario Strikers: Battle League debuted at #3 on the chart. Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes came in at #16. You can see the full results here.
