Konami announces Suikoden I&II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars, coming to Switch
Posted on 1 year ago by Nicolas in News, Switch | 0 comments
Konami have just announced surprise remasters for the first two titles in the Suikoden series in the form of Suikoden I&II HD Remaster: Gate Rune and Dunan Unification Wars. The title is set to come to Switch in 2023 and will mark the first time a mainline Suikoden title appears on a Nintendo platform.
The game is a remaster of Suikoden and Suikoden II, originally released on Playstation in 1995 and 1998, though this title also seems to be drawing inspiration from Genso Suikoden I & II, a re-release of those first two games released on PSP in 2006. This new collection promises a number of new additions, including HD visuals, an improved area map, a conversation log, auto-saves and more.
Here is a full overview for the title via Steam:

Splatoon 3 update out now (version 1.1.1), patch notes
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
A new Splatoon 3 update just dropped, with Nintendo issuing version 1.1.1.
This is a notable patch as there are changes and fixes to various aspects of the game. Splatfests, player controls, multiplayer, Salmon Run, and single-player have all been touched up in one way or another.
One aspect worth pointing to specifically is that Nintendo adjusted the rate of Tricolor Battle occurrence and from the defending team’s perspective, they will trigger somewhat less frequently than before. However, Nintendo says the change is “temporary”.
The full patch notes for the Splatoon 3 version 1.1.1 update are as follows:

Yakuza boss hesitant to put the series on Switch, feels they’re a mismatch
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Despite some fans hoping it would happen, the Yakuza series has stayed off Switch. That doesn’t seem to be changing anytime soon, with executive producer and Ryu Ga Gotoku studio head Masayoshi Yokoyama now weighing in.
Yokoyama spoke with GameSpot about the situation, explaining that the two are a mismatch. He feels Switch is considered to be more family-friendly in contrast to the underground attitude of the Yakuza series.
