Splatoon 2 had two content updates tonight, adding in the brand new Goby Arena stage and Dark Tetra Dualies weapon. Footage of each can be found below.
It’s officially the start of March. In just a couple of days, the Switch will be celebrating its first anniversary.
This has important implications for My Nintendo. If you picked up a physical copy of a game during Switch’s launch like Zelda: Breath of the Wild, don’t forget to register it on the website. Per Nintendo’s guideline, Gold Points need to be claimed within one year of the game’s original release date. If you attempt to register Breath of the Wild on March 4 – a day after the initial launch – you’ll be out of luck.
Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Super Bomberman R, Skylanders: Imaginators, 1-2 Switch, and Just Dance 2017 were Switch’s launch games. We’re pointing out the obvious, but the one-year rule also applies to every Switch title going forward.
Miitomo has been updated with more content. Users will find a new stage, along with some brand new items.
“The blessings of nature! Flowering Fashion #1” is the new stage. It includes the following:
– Feel-good flower sunglasses
– Embroidered anemone jacket
– Giant floral bow
– Violet and gerbera dress
And as far as the new items go, you can nab the following:
– Fleece-lined parka
– Acid wash jeans
– Leather waist bag
Bandai Namco has gone live with the first trailer for Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm Trilogy on Switch. We have the video below.
Nintendo issued the latest update for Splatoon 2 last night, implementing a ton of different changes. You can read the full patch notes here.
Following up on that, another patch has been issued. Version 2.3.1 is out now. This update is much smaller in scope, as it addresses one particular issue. In Clam Blitz, bullets and clams will no longer pass through the covers at the top of the goals.
Kaet Must Die! is making its initial debut on Steam in April. After that, developer Strength in Numbers Studios will be turning its attention to consoles, including a Switch version.
Players can expect a very challenging horror game from Kaet Must Die!, as you’ll die plenty of times. The end goal is to explore hostile environments with enemies who can kill you in a single blow, solve puzzles, and more.
Here’s some additional information and a trailer for Kaet Must Die!:
Pixel Noir is coming to Switch, BadLand Games and have announced. The port is expected out at the same time as other versions of the game in 2018.
Pixel Noir is described as “a JRPG-inspired detective game set against a film noir backdrop.” While solving mysteries, you’ll use an investigation feature, partake in turn-based combat, and more.
We have more information and a trailer for Pixel Noir below.
Today, FDG Entertainment issued a new update for Oceanhorn. Version 1.0.1 is now available.
The primary – and perhaps only – addition in Oceanhorn is video capture support. Players can now record gameplay videos up to 30 seconds in length. If we hear about any other changes, we’ll let you know.
Thanks to K Morrison for the tip.
Blizzard tweeted out a brief video yesterday that is now beginning to make the rounds online. The clip is only six seconds long, showing a nightlight “switching” on and off.
Here’s the tweet in question:
Several months ago, Wargroove developer Chucklefish announced a new project called Spellbound. Although the team is focusing on PC currently, it sounds like Switch could be a very realistic target platform. “We’re all massive fans of the Switch at Chucklefish, and would ideally see all of our major projects hitting the platform in the future,” studio founder Finn Brice told Redbull.
Spellbound is a “wizard-school sim” RPG inspired by the likes of Harry Potter, Harvest Moon, Stardew Valley, and even Zelda for its combat. Brice says the game “revolves around your path through school, the relationships you build, and your mastery of the several schools of magic at your disposal.” You’ll build up your magical proficiency by taking on school projects like growing magical crops and creatures in herbology, meeting and befriending different characters, taking on quests, participating in dating and side activities, and more.
