NieR Automata frame rate resolution Switch

Square Enix has provided a couple of technical tidbits about the new Switch version of NieR: Automata, revealing the final frame rate and resolution.

The game is confirmed to run at 30 FPS, though no one can say for certain if there will be dips. While NieR: Automata is often at 60 FPS on other consoles, it’s known that this mark isn’t always hit.

Okami sequel

In a new interview, Okami director Hideki Kamiya has spoken in-depth about wanting to make a sequel to the cult classic.

Kamiya is with PlatinumGames these days as one of the company’s founders. But even though he left Capcom, there’s strong interest in his part when it comes to working with Okami again.

In a piece published by YouTube channel Cutscenes, Kamiya stated:

bayonetta 3 exclusivity exclusive

PlatinumGames’ Hideki Kamiya has commented on the Switch exclusivity surrounding Bayonetta 3.

Bayonetta 2 is only available on Switch (and previously Wii U). Similarly, Bayonetta 3 will only be playable on the console. Both of these titles are published by Nintendo.

In traditional Kamiya fashion, he toys with fan expectations and responds sardonically. He starts off almost encouraging the idea of Bayonetta 2 and 3 on other platforms, only to quickly dash those hopes with logic and a sarcastic “good luck”. It’s safe to say that chances of these games appearing on PlayStation or Xbox consoles are slim to nil right now.

Bayonetta 3

Nintendo and PlatinumGames have readied a new batch of screenshots for Bayonetta 3, which was properly shown during today’s Nintendo Direct.
