I think there are rules for calling out users instead of reporting them to the mods though, which is why "not harassing or flaming others" are among the community rules:

"If you disagree with anything you've read on our site, whether staff or user-submitted, please be respectful in your response. Repeatedly hounding the same user/author will be considered harassment and will not be tolerated."

"Blatantly argumentative posts directed at others will not be tolerated. While we do allow members to have respectful debate and voice their own opinions, there will be a limit to how far a heated debate can go. Be civil, show respect and do not persistently argue other users."

@Maxenmus "I think there are rules for calling out users instead of reporting them to the mods though, which is why "not harassing or flaming others" are among the community rules:" Precisely. Please contact us directly if you have any issues within the community, this isn't the place to discuss them. Thanks

@DreamlandGem Right, got it. lol My bad.

Thanks for clearing things up.

@Maxenmus No problem! Sorry, I forgot to @JaxonH in the previous comment too. We also have the ignore feature to use if you feel it's needed. Thanks for your understanding

This is why I stay in the middle. I like to hear what everyone says.

Now, I saw an early preview for Disney Dreamlight Vally and it looks kinda good. I might check it out if the early access hits Switch.

Somebody want to tell Nihon Falcom that the Switch needs Ys 1 and 2?

Thanks

Doesn't Switch have Ys 1 and 2 with Ys Origin?

@JaxonH Nope. Ys 1 & 2 ]haven't seen Switch ports, unfortunately.

There's a whole mess of old Ys games that'd be perfect for the platform.

I'd highly recommend Rayman Redemption in that case. It's a fan remake (well remake is an odd term since it looks and sounds the same as the original) that basically takes the original Rayman and fixes the problems it has and adds things to it and it was so good.

It's crazy seeing Monster Hunter Rise at over 11 million units, and the Sunbreak expansion at over 4 million units. And without releasing on PS/Xbox. That's incredible. Better yet, it's not done. It's still going as the expansion just dropped 2 months ago, and massive free title updates are scheduled all the way into next year.

My guess is, when the dust settles, MH Rise base game will crack 13 million sold, and Sunbreak will crack 5.5 million sold. It was never going to outperform World, but that's still about as good as one could have reasonably hoped for.

Definitely enough to ensure Switch 2 gets a brand new entry built ground up, with an even larger AAA budget next time. And at the end of the day, that's all that matters.

I haven't fired up the Japanese eshop in a minute, but I'm guessing Trinity Trigger doesn't support English? It's due for release on September 15th and even Nintendo Japan's release schedule doesn't have a page for the game. It's a tad worrying. Is this a game being sent out to die?

@Magician I wouldn’t say sent out to die. It just is Japan only. There may or may not be a western release date later. Granted if I am not mistaken they have a number of Japan only games on switch (going off of memory as my switch is not nearby) so it may not. But I suspect a delayed localization. Next year perhaps.

@Ryu_Niiyama Sure, I get that. But for a game that is getting a retail physical release and is less than a month away I'm surprised there has been little to no advertising for it, from either Nintendo or FuRyu. Nothing other than that beta feedback video from a couple weeks ago. I'm just curious regarding the game's lack of coverage on Nintendo's website.

As for English support, I assume either NIS America or Marvel will opt to release this in the west.

Sonic Frontiers official cover.

Also...

Another Sumikko Gurashi games by Nippon Columbia on Nintendo Switch ! 😆

@Magician I suppose I don’t understand what you mean. Are you living in Japan? There could be other avenues of marketing that (I am assuming) you aren’t considering. I don’t think the game is being sent out to die.

@Ryu_Niiyama No, I don't live in Japan. Although if I weren't a lazy person, I suppose you could say one of my dreams would be to learn to read, write, and speak Japanese and reside there as well. Sadly, I'm content with watching Japan Explorer videos and simply pretending I'm there. As for Trinity Trigger, I just feel that the marketing for the game has been lackluster, nothing more.
