Since the announcement of Travis Strikes Again: No More Heroes, fans have requested ports of the original No More Heroes games on Switch. Creator Suda51 has expressed interest in the idea in the past, and again has indicated that he’d like to make it happen.

When asked by ntower about porting games like No More Heroes or Killer7 to Switch, Suda51 said:

Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime has returned with another round of comments about Switch and more. The latest statements come as part of an interview with IGN.

First up, on the topic of games, Reggie highlighted that Super Mario Odyssey, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe have an incredible attach rate of 50%. He said:

Every now and again a game comes along that feels leagues apart from everything else we see in the industry. Whether through its story, art style, gameplay, or even a combination of all those elements, those titles are the ones that will most likely leave a lasting impression on us for years. Even though those games are few and far between, when they do show up it feels like a breath of fresh air in a space that can feel stale and stifling every so often. Gris, published by Devolver Digital and developed by Nomada Studio, is one of those special releases.

Earlier this week, we heard from Nintendo of America president Reggie Fils-Aime in which he tried to explain why Red Dead Redemption isn’t on Switch. In an interview with IGN, he commented further on third-party support for the console.

On some third-party gaps, Reggie reiterated:

Nintendo Switch

YouTuber Doctre81 has spotted a couple of interesting profile listings from Blind Squirrel Games that point to a possible new collection for Switch. The developer appears to be working for an unspecified company on some sort of collection.

One staffer mentions that he’s remastering/porting a trio of fighting titles from the 90’s, planned for Switch and other platforms. The staffer is making “UIUX designs for all screens with newly designed features”.

Nintendo Switch Online

Nintendo of America recently filed a lawsuit against a man selling NES Classic Edition and Switch consoles with pirated games. Essentially, the illegitimate NES Classic had 800 ROMs for $15 above the retail price while the fake Switch hardware used Team Xecuter’s SX dongle and pirated games. Nintendo is going after this person on nine separate infringements. It’s interesting and we expect Nintendo to prevail here, but there’s something else from the situation which might be even more noteworthy.

Included in the lawsuit document is a tidbit about the Switch eShop. It calls out the “Nintendo Switch Online shop” that was “formerly Nintendo eShop”.

What could this mean? Will the Switch eShop be getting a simple name change? Is Nintendo planning a more in-depth makeover? Only time will tell.
