Ripstone pushed out a patch for Chess Ultra this week. After it’s downloaded, dual Joy-Con support is enabled when the console is docked. That means you can experience multiplayer with a friend without having to remove the controllers.
With the insane amount of online maintenance scheduled for the coming week, something even more has just been added to the pile: Wii U and 3DS Image Share. The full schedule is below.
Wii U and 3DS Image Share
– 6:00 PM PT (December 21) – 9:00 PM PT (December 21)
– 9:00 PM ET (December 21) – 12:00 AM ET (December 22)
– 2:00 AM in the UK (December 22) – 5:00 AM in the UK (December 22)
– 3:00 AM in Europe (December 22) – 6:00 AM in Europe (December 22)
People have been saying that all this coming maintenance may be a precursor to new online methods from Nintendo.
Tomorrow, The Coma: Recut will be available on the Switch eShop. You can take a look at the game in the video below.
Bloody Zombies, an award-winning zombie hack’n’slash game, seems to be headed to the Switch dangerously soon. Following yesterday’s news, a Switch trailer seems to have surfaced for the zombie smasher. Watch below!
Do you remember that reggae Slowpoke song the Pokemon Company released awhile back? How about the Magikarp song, sung by a child? There’s a Mimikyu song, too.
The Pokemon Company of Japan has just added to that by releasing a new song about Gengar. As the token ghost-type Pokemon, the lyrics to this song are a little bit more ghastly than others! In the video below, you can conveniently turn on English subtitles.
If this song is to follow suit with the others, it should have an English dubbed version eventually for those interested.
Today’s item distribution is themed after Kass. The director of the game, Hidemaro Fujibayashi, opens with a special tip about Kass’s songs: “[After talking to him once during the Champions’ Ballad DLC pack 2,] I advise you to take a moment and talk to Kass a second time for a special performance.” Apparently, if you leave the area without talking to him a second time, you lose out on the ability to hear this special performance.
The item distribution, in honor of Kass, is as follows: Roasted Bird Drumstick (x2), Raw Bird Drumstick (x2). Yes, Mr. Fujibayashi is implying that Kass is probably delicious. All you need to do to get them is view the news report on your Switch and press the button at the bottom of the post!
Eating bird drumsticks to honor a bird…? In the closing words of the director, “hopefully Kass won’t mind too much!”
A number of quests have become available for the unit Sharena in Fire Emblem Heroes to earn a number of rewards including orbs. You will be able to do these quests until January 2nd.
