Today, Autumn Pioneer announced that Shashingo: Learn Japanese with Photography will be released on Switch. A release window has yet to be confirmed.

For more on Shashingo: Learn Japanese with Photography, read the following overview:

Explore a bright, fictional Japanese city street filled with details and interesting objects to capture with your camera. Each photograph you take will translate the name of the content into Japanese and English so you can learn with your surroundings.

Key Features:

A stylised, approachable 3D environment
In-game photography system
Japanese voice acting
Photo album to store flash cards
A game mode that tests your memory

Create Stunning Photography Based Flashcards
Every photo flash-card you take will be unique to you. The idea behind this is to strengthen the relationship between a word and how you see it’s physical appearance. In the real world, you can then see such objects and make connections to the Japanese words you’ve already learned while playing Shashingo.

Track Your Progress In The Photo Album
Your photo album is where you keep your collection of captured flash-cards. If you remember them well in Recall Mode, they’ll be separated into the ‘mastered’ tab and shown with a gold star sticker. However, if you’re struggling to remember a word in Recall Mode, they’ll be marked with a purple exclamation mark sticker, so you know which words you need to practice more.You can also mark your favourite words & images with a cute little heart sticker to add them to your favourites page.

At the back of your in-game photo album, there are numerous pages of Japanese lessons designed for beginners that will teach you how to speak Japanese and use the vocabulary that you learn in Shashingo. Also included are some key words and important phrases that can help you in your future conversations.
