Nintendo has shared a few photos of the activity from the Nintendo Gaming Lounge at San Diego Comic-Con 2018. Check out the photos below, along with their descriptions.
As we know, Octopath Traveler is supply-constrained in Japan after selling out. Square Enix issued an apology last weekend, and advised Switch owners to consider the game’s digital version on the eShop for the time being.
Given Octopath Traveler’s scarcity, it’s unsurprising to see that almost all of the first round of copies have been sold. Dengeki reports that the title sold through 90% of its initial shipment.
During a three-day period, Octopath Traveler sold 110,000 units. With digital copies, perhaps that number could be closer to 150,000.
Video games don’t often make the best film adaptations. Jordan Vogt-Roberts is looking to break that feeling, as he’s directing the upcoming Metal Gear Solid film.
At Comic-Con this week, IGN asked Vogt-Roberts how he’d approach making a movie based on The Legend of Zelda. Here’s what he mentioned:
2064: Read Only Memories Integral’s journey to Switch hasn’t exactly been smooth. Following a delay from April 5, we haven’t heard much from the developer.
We last thought that we’d finally be seeing 2064: Read Only Memories Integral next week. The game had finally received an eShop listing with a July 26 release date, and that date was also shown in a new trailer.
Take-Two has put out a few different Switch games through its subsidiaries. Back in November, Rockstar’s L.A. Noire hit the console. 2K Sports has also issued NBA 2K18 (2K19 is due out in September) and WWE 2K18.
It’s unclear just how much these titles have sold on Switch. However, Take-Two CEO Straus Zelnick has offered up an encouraging statement.
The latest Splatfest in Splatoon 2 was held this weekend, and it was a big one. Nintendo had the Squid and Octopus teams battling it out.
After a day of battles, the Splatfest has concluded. Nintendo just shared the results as well.
Located in Tokyo’s nerd Mecca, Akihabara, the Square Enix Café features a rotating menu and a variety of changing themes. This time around, from June 30 to August 10, the Switch exclusive Octopath Traveler is heavily featured with all sorts of limited edition merchandise, food and drinks inspired by the game, decorations and art. I visited the café in order to get first-hand impressions to share with our readers.
Fire Emblem Heroes has kicked off its latest Bound Hero Battle. Leo: Sorcerers Prince and Elise: Budding Flower from Fire Emblem Fates are in Special Maps. By beating Hard through Infernal modes, you can earn more Orbs.
Also remember that Fire Emblem Heroes received its latest update to Blessed Gardens yesterday. Fountain of Fire has been added as the new map.
WarioWare Gold is launching in North America on August 3. Ahead of its release, Nintendo has made the pre-load option available on the 3DS eShop.
WarioWare Gold takes up 9,836 blocks of space. That amounts to 1.2GB.
Don’t forget: a demo for WarioWare Gold is available on the 3DS eShop right now.
