We have news about the Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne HD Remaster figma for Demi-fiend – specifically a release date, new photos, and pre-orders. This comes as production gets into the preparation stage for later this year.

Long ago, a heroic man had a great battle with the tyrannical dragon king – but rather than slay his foe, the hero found a way to sever the demonic energy corrupting the king, allowing him to live on.

Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Pokemon Shining Pearl have both given a new update, and the two Switch RPGs are now at version 1.3.0.

Discolored Episode 2 is another first-person puzzle adventure title. Godbey says it’ll bring back “surreal and mind-bending puzzles”, but this time around “it will also cover new territory with intense gameplay moments and the introduction of a couple of characters that help expand upon the story.”
Nintendo has updated the Japanese release schedule on its platforms for the week of March 24, 2022. Here’s a look at the upcoming digital download schedule:
Mario Strikers fans might be surprised to hear that the game came close to being more of a platformer.
That news comes from Mike Inglehart, who was a director on the GameCube title as well as its Wii sequel Mario Strikers Charged.
