Amazon is running its latest sale on Sandisk microSD cards. The big discount is for the 400GB which version, which started out very expensive, and will still cost you a pretty penny. However, while it started out at $250, you can pick up this microSD card for $190, making it $60 (24% off).
You can place an order here if interested. Just note that with the 400GB card, it could take a couple of weeks to ship.
Thanks to Jake for the tip.
The card game Poisoft Thud Card will be available on the Switch eShop as of tomorrow. Get a look at some footage below.
A few days ago, Ryouna was added to Shinobi Refle: Senran Kagura as a new DLC character. You can see see some footage in the video below.
Nintendo posted a new behind the scenes video for Super Mario Odyssey today showing the recording of Jump Up, Super Star! – or more specifically, the instrumental music behind it. You can view this below.
Nintendo says that it considered a variety of music genres for the song, but went with a jazzy style in the end that matched the game. 17 people were brought in to record.
シリーズ初のボーカル曲「Jump Up, Super Star!」。
制作時には様々なジャンルを検討したのですが…ゲームに合わせて明るいジャズ風の曲調にしました！演奏者だけで17人という、迫力あるビッグバンド編成で収録したんです。 pic.twitter.com/qkfWyA94jy— スーパーマリオ オデッセイ (@mario_odysseyJP) February 28, 2018
Payday 2 finally landed on Switch this week (late last week for folks in Europe). Digital Foundry is back again to look at how the game is from a technical perspective, and unfortunately, the optimization here is lacking compared to its console counterparts.
Digital Foundry first tackles resolution. When docked, Payday 2 runs at 1600×900 and 720p in portable mode.
Thomas Brush started a Kickstarter campaign in hopes of funding his new project Once Upon a Coma. In just one day, the target goal was reached. Once Upon a Coma has also now hit a $60,000 Switch stretch goal, meaning it will be developed for Nintendo’s console.
The game begins as main character Pete wakes from a strange coma, only to find that things aren’t as he remembers. You’ll be exploring a strange and terrifying land, fighting against some scary enemies with your trusty barber’s blade, and more.
Nintendo has put out a new video highlighting some of the games that were added to the Switch eShop in January. Get a look at it below.
