According to developer Gamuzumi, Nintendo has changed its approach to content it allows on its platforms, and no longer permits uncensored breasts to be shown in games approved for systems like Switch.
The studio was hoping to bring Hot Tentacles Shooter to the eShop in the near future. But earlier this month, Gamuzumi said “Nintendo is increasing their restriction about what can be published or not on their consoles” and after sending the title for review, the team was told that it might not fit console policies.

Nintendo officially forms Nintendo Pictures, shares website and details
Posted on 3 years ago by Nicolas in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
A few months ago, Nintendo announced the planned acquisition of visual content company Dynamo Pictures, with the intent to integrate it into Nintendo under the name “Nintendo Pictures”. That acquisition has just closed today, with Nintendo revealing a new logo, opening an official Japanese website, and releasing some information on the new division.
For the most part, they’ve reiterated what was said in the original acquisition statement; the plan is to have Nintendo Pictures produce visual content based on Nintendo IP, although what kind still hasn’t been specified. The website does also state that they’ll provide motion capture recording services, which was a field Dynamo Pictures worked in, but is otherwise mostly barren.

New details uncovered for rejected Retro Studios Zelda spin-off, Heroes of Hyrule
Posted on 3 years ago by Nicolas in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
Several weeks ago, Did You Know Gaming? released a video providing details on a couple of cancelled spin-off games that Retro Studios (of Metroid Prime fame) had pitched to Nintendo for The Legend of Zelda series. Since then, they’ve managed to acquire new information on one of these two projects via an official 22-page document, a strategy game planned for the Nintendo DS titled Heroes of Hyrule.
The game would have featured a plot mostly exempt of Link, in which a young boy named Kori finds a book that, unbeknownst to him, was used to seal away Ganon 100 years ago. He would have gathered pages of the book unaware of its true purpose in order to learn more about the stories held within, which detail the adventures of a Goron, Rito, and Zora hero who venture to Ganon’s Castle in a effort to free Link from his evil clutches.

[Review] Sword Art Online: Alicization Lycoris
Posted on 3 years ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 30, 2022
Developer: Aquria
Publisher: Bandai Namco
If you were into anime in the 2010s (and probably even if you weren’t), it’s likely that you’ve heard of Sword Art Online. An immensely popular series of light novels by Reki Kawahara, it has since spawned several shows, movies, and, of course, video games. The world of Sword Art Online seems to lend itself perfectly to a video game format, and the series has capitalized on its MMO premise to release several titles across various platforms over the years. Alicization Lycoris is the most recent game of the franchise, releasing in 2020 on other platforms, and has now finally made its way to the Switch two years later following Hollow Realization and Fatal Bullet. But if you pick it up, will you want to log out?
