D3 Publisher and Red Entertainment are bringing the otome visual novel Nightshade to Nintendo Switch. The game will launch in Japan on December 20th. Although a localization and a release in other regions has not yet been confirmed, the game is listed as having English language support. The Steam version of the game is also already available in English, so a Western release of the Switch version seems pretty likely, all things considered.
The previously detailed first round of the Heroic Feats event has started in Fire Emblem Heroes. Collectively, all players have until October 12th to send a Hero with the Fury skill until battle a total of 10 million times. If they achieve this, every player gets a 4-star Hinata: Wild Fury.
Also, a new round of the Three Heroes quests are now live. This time, the Heroes in question are Tiki: Naga’s Voice, Odin: Potent Force and Clarine: Refined Noble. Defeat enemies to get 3-star versions of them, then use these Heroes to defeat more enemies to earn orbs.
Nintendo has posted another update to the Smash Bros. Blog for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time around, we have an introduction to Wii Fit Trainer.
Here’s the overview:
It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is again the most wanted Nintendo title.

Thief’s Roulette is the latest Kickstarter success story. Having reached its $10,000 goal, the project will be moving forward and is seeing a release on Switch.
Thief’s Roulette takes inspiration from Zero Escape and Danganronpa as as first-person puzzle / visual novel hybrid. You’ll take on the role of one of fifteen thieves “that are captured and forced to compete in a deadly game of deception and trust.” The game will feature “a complex cast of characters, branching storylines, and engaging first person puzzles”.
Fire Emblem Heroes has confirmed the details of its next summoning event. Mia, Kagero, Niles, and Myrrh will be featured in The Land’s Bounty.

HORI has thus far created Mario and Zelda designs for its Switch d-pad controller. In November, a new version will be added to the mix.
A listing on Amazon shows that the d-pad controller is getting a Pikachu design. The device is the same as the Mario and Zelda versions, meaning you’ll be getting a controller that’s sort of like the left Joy-Con, but one that works in handheld mode only.
The Pikachu Switch d-pad controller launches November 16. Pre-orders are open here.
Touch Detective: Funghi’s Big Breed is coming to Switch, a listing from retailer 7net reveals. It will be released in Japan on December 20.

Now grab that whip, back dash to your seat, don’t drink the holy water; we’re about to find out why Chasm is deep and meaningful.
