Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Oninaki will be a digital-only game in North America and Europe. In Japan, however, it’s a different story.
Square Enix will in fact be offering a physical version for Japanese fans. Thankfully, we now have confirmation that English will be supported. Fans can import a Japanese copy and play through the RPG much like they would with the digital version.
Play-Asia is currently taking pre-orders for the physical version of Oninaki. If interested, you can secure a copy here. Also, if you’re a fan of the game’s music, you can pick up the soundtrack here.

Square Enix looking to offer its complete library digitally, code for older games possibly lost
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Square Enix continues to re-releases its older games through remasters and ports. That doesn’t mean you can play everything, however. As one example, there’s currently no way to experience Chrono Trigger on Switch. Square Enix also has a bunch of older titles that have yet to make their way to newer systems.
Interestingly, Square Enix president and CEO Yosuke Matsuda told Game Informer that hes’ aware of the demand to have the company’s library to be available completely digitally. Matsuda said that a “variety” of plans are in the works on that front, with Square Enix “working hard” to offer “classic titles that you might have played on NES”. In fact, a dedicated project is now in place to port those kinds of titles.
