Square Enix is preparing an in-game manual for Seiken Densetsu Collection
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 13 Comments
Seiken Densetsu Collection lacks any sort of instructions. For new players, that might be frustrating. Not all games necessarily need manuals, but there’s a reason why Seiken 3 had one (and it was 48 pages) back during the Famicom era – it can be complicated.
Square Enix is looking to fix the situation by addressing player requests. For now, the manuals for the games included in Seiken Densetsu Collection can be viewed here. Producer Masaru Oyamada also apologized for any trouble the lack of in-game explanations caused and acknowledged that players felt it was difficult to figure out how to play. Square Enix is preparing an in-game manual as well, but it will take some time.

Posted on 7 years ago by Matt(@OnePunchMaz) in 3DS, News, Switch | 1 Comment
Another week, another new round of Dragon Quest XI details from Weekly Jump magazine. This time, we learn more about Silvia, what he can do in battle and the Samadhi Kingdom. Full credit to Gematsu for the translation.
Silvia is a traveling entertainer who lives a freewheeling life and has the wonderful dream of “making people around the world smile through his own performance.” He is always cheerful and positive, and is the top mood maker among the party. He has magnificent poses and seems to get instinctively entranced. He can participate in battle through attacks, support, and recovery, and can equip one-handed swords, whips, and daggers.
Spells he can use include:
- “Oomph” – Raises an ally’s attack power. A spell useful in boss battles and such.
His special skills include:
- “Hustle Dance” – An lively dance that restores HP to all members of the party.
- “Miracle Sword” – A one-handed sword skill that can recover HP while dealing damage.
- “Whip of Love” – A whip skill that deals great damage to multiple enemies.
- “Viper Fang” – A dagger skill that targets a single enemy and occasionally induces poison.
The Samadhi Kingdom is a country of knights surrounded by a desert. It is a historic kingdom that reigns over the desert and values its chivalry. It is rumored that the young prince is himself an outstanding knight. Horse races are also carried out there.

Final Fantasy XIV still a possibility for Switch, discussions with Nintendo may take awhile
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 18 Comments
Square Enix has mentioned on a couple of occasions that Final Fantasy XIV is a possibility for Switch. This is something that director Naoki Yoshida reiterated once again while speaking with finder.com.au.
According to Yoshida, discussions with Nintendo are ongoing. However, when putting Final Fantasy XIV on a new platform, supporting the community is a shared responsibility between Square Enix and Nintendo. The two sides are talking about this (and likely more), but Yoshida said that “these conversations will take a long time.”
Yoshida’s full words:
“We want as many players joining Final Fantasy XIV as possible. …We need to make sure Nintendo and Microsoft understand what we do and have them know about our online and QA regulations. We believe these conversations will take a long time.”
