The HD-2D remake of Live A Live on Switch has reached its first sales milestone, with the game having topped 500,000 copies in terms of combined shipments and digital downloads. That figure goes for the title’s performance across all regions.
News about Live A Live’s sales was shared during an official live stream earlier today. Director Takashi Tokita delivered the news directly.
The Salmon Run mode in Splatoon 3 will be available at all days and all times, Nintendo has confirmed.
This is noteworthy as things were handled differently in Splatoon 2. With that game, Salmon Run was restricted since it couldn’t always be played online. In fact, it wasn’t actually playable every day. Nintendo confirming that Salmon Run will always be open in Splatoon 3 is therefore a pretty big deal.
Original (9/1): PQube has already been under fire after A Space for the Unbound publisher Toge Productions and developer Mojiken accused the company of “predatory practices”. Corecell Technology, the studio behind the AeternoBlade series, has now joined the fray as well.
In a statement, Corecell said PQube hasn’t provided full payment that was owed relating to a minimum guarantee and never paid for remaining milestones. Although the two sides terminated a publishing agreement, “PQube has refused to return the publishing control on the console platforms back to us and continues to sell and take all revenues from AeternoBlade II.” Nintendo has taken the game off of the Switch eShop in Europe, though Corecell hasn’t received any revenue from that region.
The full statement from Corecell reads as follows:
Will Winn Games today announced a final release date for Plunder Panic, its 6v6 pirate-themed multiplayer arcade game. On Switch, it’ll be ready to go on September 16, 2022.

Nintendo has shared details about the next Mario Kart Tour update, which will include the addition of battles.
Battles will be supported in both single-player and multiplayer. It’ll work just like other entries in the series where the goal is to pop your opponents’ balloons.
We also know that the Spotlight Shop is planned where you can exchange rubies for drivers, karts, and gliders. In related news, pipes you can fire by using rubies will be removed.
To celebrate the Pokemon Masters Tournament in the anime, Ash’s current team is being distributed via event code for Pokemon Sword and Shield. Despite it being targeted in Japan, it seems players worldwide can take advantage.

The creature comes in at level 80 and has the moves Shadow Ball, Sludge Bomb, Dazzling Gleam, and Will-o-wisp. It has the ability Cursed Body and is capable of Gigantamaxing.
