Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
One of the key elements of Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is the Blades system. By opening different types of crystals (like Core Crystals), players can add new Blades to their party, including Rare Blades.
As their name implies, obtaining Rare Blades isn’t easy. Unlocking these unique characters have a low percentage. Monolith Soft hasn’t detailed the drop rates, but fans have now datamined this information.

Nintendo.com now letting players publish reviews of Switch games
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS eShop, News, Switch eShop, Wii U eShop | 0 comments
Nintendo.com has updated, and is now allowing players to review Switch titles. Individual game pages should eventually show ratings out of five stars, and possibly the specific reviews as well. We’re not sure if every page has the functionality currently, but many do.
Take Zelda: Breath of the Wild, for instance. Scroll all the way down and you’ll see a section for the user reviews. If you’ve purchased the game under your Nintendo Account and have played at least two hours, you should be able to review it.

[Review] Dragon Quest Builders
Posted on 6 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: February 9, 2018
Developer: Square Enix
Publisher: Nintendo
Dragon Quest has always been one of those series that’s remained niche for some reason, despite having a long and seminal history within video games. Throughout its many installments, we’ve seen Dragon Quest branch out and explore genres outside of its familiar RPG style. Dragon Quest, unlike some other properties that have a myriad of spinoffs, has actually adapted into these other genres rather fluidly, and the addition of Dragon Quest Builders adds to the list of awesome titles that hold their own outside of the main series, bringing a Minecraft aesthetic to the universe. While it may look like Minecraft at a glance, at the end of the day this really is just another Dragon Quest RPG, only with an emphasis for building and crafting. It’s an amazing mechanic that works to its favor, and with a storyline and vibrant worlds to keep you busy from chapter to chapter, Dragon Quest Builders is a game that’s very difficult to put down whether you’re familiar with the series, genre or not.

Super Mario Odyssey version 1.2.0 makes it easier to keep track of solved Hint Art
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Super Mario Odyssey has a few Power Moons dedicated to Hint Art. Pictures found in the various kingdoms give you vague hints as to where these Power Moons are located.
In Super Mario Odyssey’s latest update, version 1.2.0, it’s now much easier to keep track of which Hint Art have been solved. Green ticks will appear on the pictures for Power Moons that have been obtained. This wasn’t mentioned in Nintendo’s patch notes, but is worth mentioning since it’s a very helpful addition.
