DigitalFoundry is back with its latest analysis focusing on Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers. The full rundown is in the video below.
Key highlights are that the game runs in native 1080p while the Way of the Hado mode has some dips below 60 frames per second. Compared to last-gen’s Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix, character portraits, the versus screen, and character select screen have been reworked to more closely match the original game, but Ultra Street Fighter II oddly has static backgrounds with the new style.
Update (5/26): Warner Bros. pulled the original trailer after it aired earlier this week for whatever reason. It’s now live again and is officially released, so we’ve added it in below.
Original (5/23): Warner Bros. has released the full announcement trailer for LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2, which is is lined up for Switch. View it below.
Nintendo games haven’t been sold in Brazil since January 2015. However, the company now appears to be returning.
These titles are going through the classification process for release in Brazil:
1-2 Switch (Switch)
Mario Party: Star Rush (3DS)
Pokemon Super Mystery Dungeon (3DS)
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (Switch)
Mario & Luigi: Paper Jam (3DS)
Fire Emblem Fates: Birthright (3DS)
Kirby: Planet Robot (3DS)
Unfortunately, Prices are expected to be on the rise. While they were previously at R$330 to R$400, which would be the equivalent of US$90+ to US$120. NC Games, a local importer for games in Brazil, will be handling the distribution of Nintendo’s various titles.
Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers is out today on Switch, and to celebrate the occasion, Capcom has released a launch trailer for the game. Give it a watch:
In the recently released trailer for Splatoon 2’s singleplayer mode, the grind rails were one of the most striking new features. They might seem similar to the ink rails from the first game, but you can actually shoot your weapon while you’re on a grind rail. The official Splatoon Twitter account published a couple more screenshots of the grind rails in action today. Check them out:
The account also published the following gif of the new rolling mats. Inking them unfurls them, albeit only temporarily, which allows them to be used in a variety of ways:
この仕掛けは「ピロピロ」。
丸まった状態で置かれていて、インクを浴びせると転がりながら広がる。
広がった上をヒトやイカで移動でき、広がる勢いで敵を倒すこともできるぞ。
広げてから時間が経ったり、タコのインクを浴びたりすると、また丸まってしまう。
それにしても「ピロピロ」って……。 pic.twitter.com/GcpRjN9aHA— Splatoon(スプラトゥーン) (@SplatoonJP) May 26, 2017
