Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime, which was only just made known through last week’s Japanese Nintendo Direct, already has a release date. Developer Asteroid Base announced today that the launch will be taking place on October 3. Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime will cost $14.99.

The way in which NES Golf on Switch can be unlocked came to light yesterday. Even so, it almost seemed too crazy to be true. Additional videos and images have surfaced over the past several hours, and with all of the evidence out there, it’s looking more and more like the discovery is real.

One such video is below. You’ll notice that it even includes audio from late Nintendo president Satoru Iwata saying “chokusetsu” (“direct”). With the unlock date being July 11 – the date of his passing – it seems like whoever came up with this went all out in honoring him.

Early accounts from this week’s Famitsu suggested that Steins;Gate Elite is bound for Switch. Based on the latest information from the magazine, it’s now absolutely official. Steins;Gate Elite is hitting Switch in Spring 2018 in Japan.

The new version of Steins;Gate is a “full animation adventure game”. It’s totally different from the series’ traditional style. Famitsu also says that every second of the anime has been captured for the game, and new routes not present in the show are in the works. WhiteFox, the same animation studio that produced the anime, is in charge of production.
