The air hangs thick with mist, the shrouded school halls hard to navigate in the ever-present haze. You don’t remember anything. Not your name, your grade, or anything about what caused this to happen. You descend the stairs to clean air and students like yourself attempting to remain calm. Panic does no one any good, after all. The Shin Mikado Academy is enshrouded in a mysterious barrier, and its going to take a lot of work to get to the bottom of this ordeal in Monark.

Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack was updated to version 2.0.0 today. Although it added Zelda: Majora’s Mask as a brand new game, fixes for prior titles are also included.

One of the aspects widely discussed for Zelda: Ocarina of Time on Nintendo Switch Online was the Water Temple – particularly the implementation of fog in the room with Dark Link. According to Twitter user OatmealDome, it has now been fully restored and essentially looks like how it should, meaning it closely resembles the original release. We have a look at the updated Water Temple room and the use of fog above.

Nintendo has just announced their acquisition of SRD Co., Ltd. It will now be made into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Nintendo, with the acquisition being expected to close on April 1, 2022. This doesn’t come as hugely surprising news, as SRD had been working alongside Nintendo for roughly fourty years even positioning their Kyoto office in the Nintendo Development Center. They’ve helped in the development of a significant amount of Nintendo’s games since, including more recent titles such as Game Builder Garage and Animal Crossing: New Horizons.

Here is the full statement from Nintendo regarding the acquisition:

Around four years ago to the date, Dynasty Warriors 9 released globally and introduced a new perspective for the franchise with an open world format, though the feature seemed partially unnecessary. It was a neat idea that was unfortunately poorly implemented and left a bad taste in a lot of players’ mouths. Could an Empires edition – which many thought would be skipped – be able to unlock the original game’s potential? I truly believe that was the plan, and though this is a version that’s packed with all the content and changes Dynasty Warriors 9 spent years building post-launch, Empires is just a stripped down reminder that the title had a lot of its issues deep-rooted in its foundation that simply can’t be changed by adding more stuff as a distraction, and to make matters worse, the Switch version is borderline unplayable with how it runs.

Nightdive Studios has been behind some top-tier ports and remasters over the years. Most recently, the company was behind PowerSlave Exhumed on Switch. Nightdive also brought a number of other games to the platform, including  Quake, Turok 1 and 2, Shadowman Remastered, and more.

Nightdive hasn’t had the chance to remaster any games from Nintendo itself, but that hasn’t stopped the company from trying. CEO Stephen Kick actually revealed on Twitter a few days ago that it has talked with the Big N about the possibility. However, Nintendo “always get gun shy working with third-party developers even after Nightdive Studios
released the first N64 games on their platform.”
