It's weird Team Ninja ported the Soft Engine to Switch just for one JP only spinoff game. It's probably too late for a DOA5LR release though.
They could just call it Dead or Alive Switch and use the Dead or Alive 5 assets. Additionally they could also downscale the costumes from Dead or Alive 6.
But they need much content in the base game. This is what the masses want as Smash Ultimate shows.

Dead or Alive Dimensions was likely the best 3DS fighting game. Much better than Tekken and even better than Street Fighter.

Oh, I guess Fatal Frame 5 and Musou Stars also used Soft Engine? Maybe those will get ports too then.

Koei is well positioned in terms of Switch support, but they seem a little bit too slow in announcing projects Iike Fatal Frame or Dead or Alive, that were present even on 3DS/Wii U and that would obviously work on Switch too (fatal frame is strongly tied to Nintendo, with them also partially funding and publishing the latest episodes).

With Warriors Orochi 4 they at least arrived to simultaneous "Mosou" releases, with Fire Emblem and Marvelous as ice on the cake, being "apparently good) exclusives

Yup. It disappeared for a couple of weeks, but it came back the week friggin' Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn was released. Talk about a funny coincidence (as I doubt the release of that game had any sort of impact on anything).

Curious to see how high it will go before the inevitable new Kirby game is announced for Switch. Possibly even this year (for a 2020 release).

Uh, I think people missed this surprise appearance in MC:

44./00. [NSW] Puyo Puyo Tetris <PZL> (Sega) {2017.03.03} (¥4.990)

WOAH, it's been absent for almost a year back in Week 19, 2018!

Nintendo is smart and is advertising fire emblem to the female and rpg lite audience, hardcores that only care about mechanics and strategy aren't a good fit to adds in general.

I can't imagine a more riveting commercial for Fire Emblem.

Seems they're going for ads that show how the Switch fits certain lifestyles, rather than showcasing games heavily.

That ad is about how the Switch suits a busy person on the move, just as this third one shows how it can fit into the life of a parent:



The Switch comes off like an old pal, a comfort place you can return to when life affords you the time. I think it's a good complement to ads focussing on games specifically.

For those of you wondering what Atelier Lulua looks like on Switch (since I remember someone wondering about that), Nintendo has plenty of screenshots over there: https://topics.nintendo.co.jp/c/article/88cdb465-43d8-11e9-b104-0a6d14145cb1.html

And just realised this is the first Gust game not be delayed in quite a while (unless my memory fails me).

Pio Fore no Banshou -ricordo- (Idea Factory again) announced for Switch, out later this year. Was previously released on PSV.

KH3 Superior Tracker Road to 800k: 794k

Not surprising that MC decided to hide their numbers shortly after Famitsu became the Superior Tracker of the KH series with Dengeki becoming the Better Tracker. Being in last place will do that to you. Hopefully MC's tracker reaches 800k before that happens.

Can't wait to see the Taki effect on KH3 and most importantly Judge Eyes in a few.

Don't think there will be a "Taki effect" for KHIII. I mean yes he was Olaf but they will just patch his voice out. They aren't stopping sales of the game.

It's going to make the cost of me completing my Denki Groove collection a lot more though.

Its pretty unlikely they slow down for the final weeks of the quarter, Nintendo also seems to be doing a push across the World atm to finish up this FY strongly.
