This is how Xenoblade Chronicles X connects to the numbered trilogy
Posted on 6 hours ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
A few months ago (and before the release of the Definitive Edition), we made a few guesses on how Xenoblade Chronicles X could connect to the numbered Xenoblade Chronicles games. Of course, every single one of our theories was dead wrong – the actual answer is far, far more complicated than that.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is an extremely long game, and it’ll probably take you at least 80 hours to see its new ending. If you don’t have that kind of time to commit but still want to know how Xenoblade X relates to the overall series, we’ve written a plot summary of the major new chapter for the Nintendo Switch version. We feel that now’s a good time for this as we’re a few months removed from launch. It’s full of spoilers, of course, so you might want to bookmark this post and come back later if you’re trying to avoid them for now. We’ll be covering this game as well as the entire numbered trilogy, so keep that in mind before you continue. It’s virtually impossible to sum up the entirety of Xenoblade X’s new chapter in just a few paragraphs, but this is for true fans of the series.

Thousands of games are currently available on Switch, and there are a ton of demos out there for many of them. Not just Nintendo, but also third-parties are offering demos. We’ve now put together a comprehensive list of what’s out there.
Since our reader base is English-speaking, that’s what we’re focusing on here. In other words, we’re highlighting Switch demos that you can find in North America and Europe. Japan has a few extra demos on its end, but a majority of them are for titles that are not currently being sold in the west and are only playable in Japanese.
Nintendo files two lawsuits against individuals connected to Switch piracy

July 1, 2024: Nintendo recently filed a pair of lawsuits against individuals who the company believes facilitated piracy on Switch. Torrent Freak reported on the findings.
In the first lawsuit, Modded Hardware is accused of violating the DMCA by selling mod chips and MIG devices. Modded consoles with pirated games were apparently shipped as well. While Nintendo originally reached out to owner Ryan Daly with a lawsuit threat and it was agreed that unlawful activity would cease, Modded Hardware continued on. Daly eventually said he was looking for a new lawyer, but Nintendo wouldn’t wait any further and filed a proper lawsuit.
