@Kilamanjaro I don't think we've got one, but we could probably come up with a guide or something in time for the launch of Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light. I'll pass it on!

Re: English Version Of Persona 5 Scramble Listed By Multiple Asian Retailers
@shazbot It's not to my knowledge. I think PC got a bit confused.

@AnnoyingFrenzy Yes, it's Fates not Awakening! That figure (2.94 mil) was as of December 2018, it's now around 3 mil.

Re: Sega's Sonic Double Packs Are Out Now On Nintendo Switch
@Multi @Zeeeus The PR we received didn't say if it was cartridge or code. I'm guessing they both include game cards.
Update: "2 games on 1 cart per pack" https://twitter.com/SEGA/status/1321225161773772802
Re: Nintendo Is Releasing Three Switch Bundles In Japan Next Month
@HeadPirate Are you sure about that? This includes the game, a themed pro controller and a one month NSO sub.
I've looked high and low and can only see history of the pro controller being offered as a standalone product.
Re: Nintendo Is Releasing Three Switch Bundles In Japan Next Month
@Slinkoy1 Yep - with green and yellow Joy-Con:

"Take Pikmin 3 Deluxe for an early spin with a free demo on Nintendo Switch today"
And as @ghostrider135 notes, to play Activision's demos in recent times, users have been required to pre-order the game first.
This applied to both Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 and Crash Bandicoot 4.
Re: Skies Of Arcadia Dev Says Remaster Or Sequel Depends On Sega
@AtlanteanMan Sorry if you feel that way, but it's also the 20th anniversary of SoA. That's kind of big!
The developer said he's working on something related to SoA as well - it's just not a game... I wonder what it could be?

Re: Two Members Of "Notorious" Video Game Piracy Group Team Xecuter Arrested
@MasterJay When we've already got an NoA president named Bowser - yeah, a headline like that might confuse some people (in more ways than one).
@Ooyah This is the reason why I didn't fill the story with Bowser jokes.

Re: Video: Digital Foundry's Technical Analysis Of Super Mario 3D All-Stars
@jco83 Direct quote from John via EG. He also mentions this in the video.
"Yes, you get a resolution uptick from 320x240 to 1280x720 - but it's 720p in both docked and handheld modes, which doesn't quite make sense."

Re: Mario Celebrates His 35th Anniversary With Two New Nintendo Switch Controllers
@Kalmaro There's no mention of NFC, gyro or rumble support. To my knowledge - PowerA's wired pads don't include all that.
I've got a PowerA wired controller myself (Legend of Zelda themed) and it's got none of those features.
@Desa It's a wired controlled. The detachable wire/cable is simply for storage purposes:
"A detachable 10ft USB cable with a Velcro-strap is included for reduced clutter and easy storage."
