Monolith Soft reveals more on Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna – The Golden Country and how it came to be
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Last week, Torna – The Golden Country was announced as the big story expansion for Xenoblade Chronicles 2. Monolith Soft executive director Tetsuya Takahashi has since shared more on the new content and how it came to be.
Takahashi reveals that Torna – The Golden Country was included with the team’s original prototype for the main game – or “one of the potential story candidates”. However, it was determined that the Torna content “would divert a major portion of the budget and development time we had allotted for Xenoblade Chronicles 2.” The concept was abandoned, but Takahashi still had it on his PC, and it was brought back in the form of the expansion / DLC.

May 2018 NPD: Neon Switch the best-selling hardware SKU, 90% software sales growth
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
More data is in from this month’s NPD report.
On the Switch hardware front, the Neon Switch was the month’s best-selling hardware SKU. That applies to both both unit and dollar sales.
That’s not the only good news for Nintendo. Switch software sales in May generated growth of 90% when compared to a year ago, which is the highest software revenues for any Nintendo platform in May since the Wii in May 2011. This is without digital sales since NPD does not track digital sales on Nintendo platforms.
