PuffPals: Island Skies joined Kickstarter not too long ago, and after achieving astronomical success, the game will be appearing on Switch.
PuffPals: Island Skies was only seeking $75,000 as its funding goal. Thanks to the fans, however, the total is around $700,000 and counting. A number of stretch goals have been unlocked, including one for Switch. A fishing mini-game, cooking, arcade, and more will be added as well. There’s even a chance for online multiplayer, though that’ll require the campaign to reach $1 million.
Long have Nintendo handhelds been a bastion for region-free gaming. Nintendo’s Game Boy and DS lines of consoles are celebrated for their ability to accept titles from any country and any language – meaning kids from the ’90s definitely could import a copy of Pokemon Green and play it in its original Japanese language. If you’re from that time you may have had a friend that somehow had gotten their hands on it. While TV consoles for the most part were region-locked, meaning they only accepted cartridges or CDs from their specific manufacturing area, importing handheld games became more commonplace with the rise of digital marketplaces. User-friendly and in your own local language, many online retailers feature the ability to purchase games from overseas; but in an era where new Pokemon games are released globally on the same day, why would you need to import or even download something from another region in the first place?
New Heroes & Ascended Ishtar will be the next summoning event in Fire Emblem Heroes, Nintendo and Intelligent Systems have announced. New Heroes from the Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War will be appearing, including Ishtar: Echoing Thunder.
The New Heroes & Ascended Ishtar summoning event will kick off in Fire Emblem Heroes on April 18. View a trailer for it below.
