Posted on 3 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments | 0 Likes
Sky Skipper is an arcade game from Nintendo that some may be unaware of. The title did come out in Japan a few decades ago, but after performing poorly, never made it to North America in its original form.
Thanks to Hamster’s partnership with Nintendo, the game is finally returning and getting a proper release in the west. Announced during the Treehouse Live stream today, Sky Skipper is coming to Switch. It will be released under the Arcade Archives banner.
Arcade Archives Sky Skipper launches for Switch in July.

Dragon Quest X is still a possibility for the west
Posted on 3 days ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News, Switch, Wii, Wii U | 0 comments | 0 Likes
Dragon Quest X is one of the few recent entries in the series that has not left Japan. The MMORPG first appeared on Wii in 2012, and has since landed on Wii U, 3DS, and Switch.
Many fans have given up on the possibility of a localization at this point, but Square Enix isn’t ruling out the idea entirely. Actually, Dragon Quest XI producer Yuu Miyake told Game Informer that the team wants to bring it stateside, though the five-year plan of service would need to be rearranged.
