We heard earlier this year that Nefarious could move from Wii U to Switch. The Wii U version still appears to be happening, based on comments from creator Josh Hano.
Hano confirmed to 4colorrebellion that the team hasn’t ceased its work on Nintendo’s older console. Right now, the team is trying to solve some “technical hurdles,” but it is running “on a basic level” at least.
Hano said:
“We haven’t stopped working on it! We are experiencing some technical hurdles, but we did manage to get it playing on a basic level. We still have a lot of things we need to do to make it work, but our initial once-over was very promising.”
Capcom and Nintendo have one more video ready designed for players to get the most out of Ultra Street Fighter II: The Final Challengers. View it below to learn about some useful tactics that’ll give you the edge in battle.
Disgaea 5 was originally developed for the PlayStation 4. Now that it’s made the jump to Switch in the form of Disgaea 5 Complete, the game’s trophies remain in place.
Above is a screenshot of one trophy you can earn in Disgaea 5 Complete. It pretty much nails the same notification that comes up on PS4 when you earn any trophy on the console. Since Switch lacks system-wide trophies, the ones in Disgaea 5 Complete has one NPC keeping track of them all.

Mr. Shifty publisher tinyBuild has some sort of Switch announcement in store. On Twitter, the company teased “exciting” news that will be shared “very soon”.
The tweet in question is below:

It’s unclear what exactly tinyBuild is teasing, but we’re hoping for a new Switch game announcement of some sort.
THQ Nordic is publishing Battle Chasers: Nightwar and Sine Mora EX on Switch. Now the company may have another title planned for the platform as well.
This Is the Police is being listed by two retailers in Germany. GameStop and Saturn both have listings up for the adventure strategy title.
THQ Nordic hasn’t officially announced This Is the Police for Switch, but that could change in the near future. We’ve included a video and information about the game below.
Sonic Mania appears to have a final release date. The game now has an official page on Steam, which shows a release date of August 15. SEGA has not yet officially announced this date so the news may very well have been uncovered early.
Sonic Mania was originally planned for release in Spring 2017. SEGA ended up delaying the game to an unspecified period during the summer. With E3 right around the corner, we should be hearing about the new August 15 date soon.
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.
