@Magician Get Oneshot: World Machine Edition when it's on sale. It typically goes on sale for $10

I watched a demo for The Hundred Line: Last Defense Academy. As a Danganronpa fan, I like Rui Komatsuzaki's art. His characters are off-the-wall and cool. But another tactical rpg?

I have a substantial backlog of those as is.

Here I thought Perky Little Things was the most lewd game on Switch. However, now I think Shuttlecock-H is the closest thing to an h-game on Switch. Makes me wonder if it was the main cause for Nintendo to revise their game submission guidelines? I've never seen something so cultured on a Nintendo platform.

And, unlike PLT (a boring match-the-piece-with-the-scene puzzle game), Shuttlecock-H is a halfway decent dodge'em up game.

@Magician For awhile I thought Nintendo was cracking down because it seemed like only one company was making H M-for-mature games (as opposed to the T for teens ones) but then I noticed last week a different company had a pervy minesweeper game. I have zero clues what Nintendo's criteria are, but I hope they at least have saner organization in the Switch 2 eShop to filter things.

Whatever PLT is, it apparently never came to the North America eShop.

@Magician Never enough tactical RPGs ❤️

@Ralizah

Yeah, I caved and ordered a copy.

Especially after reading the Kazutaka Kodaka quote, "we're prepared to go bankrupt and retire if this fails".

We're well into the Spring season.

Why hasn't there been a massive Spring sale?

Gold coins to burn, chop chop.

Use the 3rd party app from Google Play Store called SwitchBuddy. It's so much better for transferring screenshots to your phone.

@JaxonH Late reply, but I'll give it a shot, I have it downloaded on my phone. Thank you for telling me about it!

I got a pro controller today, a new one. Not sure how much power is in it, but doing first charge they recommend you do. Roughly how long will it take to charge if its at like 50%, which batteries are at on a new device? I know from empty its six hours.

Playing through Final Fantasy IX for the first time. I appreciate the added cheat functions. 9999 damage from a Vivi melee attack? Nice.

I'm up to where Odin just destroyed Cleyra.

I can see how folks would be excited abut a FFIX remake. Some interesting characters here.

I like 9 the most. Haven't played every FF game, but it's my favorite story for sure.

Nice day for fishing is coming to switch.

Curious to see if Nintendo has any more 1st party Switch 1 titles for this year or if there really is a 6+ month drought (albeit a totally understandable one for obvious reasons) until Metroid and Pokémon.

Although those are two major games, the fact that we don't know what month Z-A is coming and don't even know what season Prime 4 is coming makes me feel like a combined Switch 1 and 2 direct, perhaps in June or July, is pretty much guaranteed. I assume that will include a couple smaller Switch 1 games and perhaps something Mario-40th-anniversary-related which includes Switch 1.

I'd wager we'll get at least one more port/remaster this year for Switch 1. Maybe Star Fox 64 HD (based on the 3DS version) lol. Other than that? I kinda see a download only Dr. Mario title happening.

Since Wind Waker and F-Zero are coming to NSO I suppose that rules out their remasters showing up as a la carte Switch releases.

There's eshop maintenance for a few hours on April 23rd (22nd for some regions) which makes me think that may be when the Virtual Game Card system update goes live. The March Direct said the update was going live in late April.

Is there still mission and rewards silver points on NSO

@Ninfan There is right now. I think they will have to continue because the website continues to add random merch you can get for points. Personally instead of the icons, I'm hoping for Switch 2 they will have backgrounds you can get.
