Fire Emblem: Three Houses introduces Petra
Posted on 5 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in News, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
The next Fire Emblem: Three Houses character to be introduced on the game’s official Twitter account is Petra of the Black Eagles. She’s the granddaughter of the king of the Briggid Archipelago, a group of islands west of the main continent. As the Archipelago is subservient to the Adrestian Empire, they sent Petra to the Officer’s Academy to prove their loyalty and allegiance. She’s unfamiliar with the language spoken in Fódlan, but she has been studying hard. She is voiced by Shizuka Ishigami.
Here’s a brief clip of Petra talking with Byleth, in which you can hear her unusual speech pattern:

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has sold 1.73 million copies worldwide
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has sold 1.73 million copies worldwide through March 2019. That news comes straight from Monolith Soft’s Tetsuya Takahashi, who shared the news in a crossover interview with Bandai Namco’s Katsuhiro Harada. Takahashi indicated that sales are essentially peaking at that number, which makes sense given how the RPG has been out for quite some time.
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 launched in December 2017. It was at 1.42 million copies sold by June 30, 2018. That number moved up to 1.53 million units by September 30 that year.
Thanks to PDApanda for the tip.
