Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 1 Comment
Cat Quest recently landed on Switch as an eShop download. It’s also available on a few other platforms as well.
At least on Switch, Cat Quest is doing very well. The Gentlebros CEO Desmond Wong says that the first two weeks of sales on the console have “definitely outpaced” both Steam and mobile.
Desmond also confirmed that Cat Quest is selling equally well in North America, Europe, and Japan on the eShop. It may be doing just a bit better in Japan, where it was the third best-selling Switch game on the eShop at one point.

Concept for Europe’s original Senran Kagura Burst boxart shown
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 5 Comments
Senran Kagura Burst could have ended up with a very different boxart for Europe. Originally, PQube was toying around with an idea that “would have featured Hikage, and would have had a plastic sleeve around the box that would slide off. Hikage’s out clothing would have been on the sleeve only, so that peeling off the sleeve would mimic Senran Kagura‘s well-known clothing destruction feature.”
The image below is what PQube went with for the final product. While the initial idea was abandoned, head of marketing Geraint Evans says it could be revisited at some point.
