We haven’t heard much about Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn in recent months, but the game may finally be coming soon. It was rated not too long ago by the USK, and a listing has now popped up on Amazon UK. Yes, this is apparently getting a physical release on Switch.
It could be a tentative date, but Amazon UK believes Shaq Fu: A Legend Reborn will be launching on April 3 – at least physically. The retailer also provides the following details:
At the Taipei Game Show 2018 this weekend, Neko Works revealed that Nekopara is coming to Switch. A release is planned for Q3 2018.

Nekopara takes place in a world where humans and catgirls live alongside each other, and people can keep them as pets. We’ve included more information and a trailer below.

In Japan, Nintendo sent out a special Xenoblade Chronicles 2 message. Director Tetsuya Takahashi wrote up a few words for those who are playing the RPG. It may not have anything earth-shattering, but Takahashi goes over how there’s more to Xenoblade Chronicles 2 other than just pursuing the main story, and mentions how he hopes that players will continue to be engaged with content from the Expansion Pass.
Here’s our translation in full:
Eiji Aonuma has been involved with the Zelda series for many, many years. Yet out of all of the games he’s contributed to, Breath of the Wild may have been the most enjoyable one to work on.
Aonuma spoke extensively about the process of making Breath of the Wild in the latest issue of Game Informer. The reason why development was so enjoyable was due to the staff working on the game. Aonuma said that the team “took so much initiative, and were always looking at everything in the game with this eye to improve.” Even though Aonuma was worried about how Breath of the Wild would turn out, that feeling started to fade as he saw the staff put Breath of the Wild together.
Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle is off to a strong start in Japan. During the week of January 15, it was the market’s top-seller. Media Create reports first week sales of 67,000 units.
Media Create further states that Mario + Rabbids Kingdom Battle sold through 78.26% of its initial shipment. The Rabbids series isn’t really a big deal in Japan, and pre-orders were a bit on the slow side. However, reservations picked up quite a bit to about 30,000 units. Media Create also says that commercials have made a big impact and have appealed to the family demographic.
