Shovel Knight to support video capture on Switch with future update
Posted 6 years ago by Brian in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
Only a handful of Switch games support video capture at the moment. And for older titles, they need to be updated so that players can record footage.
Shovel Knight is one Switch game that will be receiving support for video capture in the future. Yacht Club told one fan on Twitter that it will be added in the next update. We’ll likely be seeing it when King of Cards launches in 2018.
Yacht Club’s tweet is as follows:
Video recording on Switch will be supported in SK's next update, most likely with King of Cards next year.

Posted 6 years ago by Brian in 3DS eShop, News, Switch eShop | 14 Comments
Box Hedge Games created a Kickstarter for the Mega Man-inspired Super Mighty Power Man earlier this month. However, the campaign has been cancelled.
Rather than pulling the plug on the Kickstarter due to concerns about funding, Box Hedge Games said in an update that the team has received interest from “several publishers.” The developer is now “currently discussing with them alternatives on how to secure the development and the release of Super Mighty Power Man.” The game should be funded and released at some point.
Here’s the full update from Box Hedge:
Final Fantasy XIV director still interested in a Switch version, “positive discussions” taking place
Posted 6 years ago by Brian in News, Switch | 63 Comments
The possibility of Final Fantasy XIV on Switch is something we’ve heard about for awhile now. Director Naoki Yoshida first mentioned the interest there back in 2015 when Nintendo’s console was still known as NX. He’s reiterated that interest a few different times throughout 2017.
Fortunately, nothing has changed. Yoshida still wants to make Final Fantasy XIV happen on Switch since they want to reach as many people as possible, and apparently “positive discussions” are taking place. The only requirement he has is for everyone to play in the same world.

Splatoon 2 version 2.0.0 accidentally removes the Great Zapfish, will be fixed
Posted 6 years ago by Brian in News, Switch | 6 Comments
Nintendo began distribution the new, major update for Splatoon 2 last night. Version 2.0.0 added a ton of content, including stages, gear, and so much more.
One unintended side effect of the update relates to the Great Zapfish. Strangely, after applying the patch, it is removed entirely. Nintendo did at least say on the Japanese Twitter page for Splatoon 2 that this will be addressed with a future update.
Players can see the Great Zapfish after finishing Splatoon 2’s Hero Mode. You can spot it flying in the Inkopolis Square, though it’s not entirely clear what prompts the appearance.
