I wouldn't be surprised if there ends up being a Switch port, would probably be not much effort vs revenue potential.
Game could perform well on Switch since it's a good game.
It might also not perform well though, especially since it will be seen by many MH fans as a slap in the face, unless some sort of classical MH is announced at the same time for the Switch.
If somehow miraculously the (hypothetical) Switch port performs really well, there will be a future for the series.
Otherwise it's dead Jim.
What's the game in the circles on the right? Looks puzzley.
Not seen that before, then. Not as puzzley as I was hoping, but looks interesting with the mix of territory control and combat - sort of like a 2D Splatoon? Ish?
You can definitely do better. Like mention a Switch version or something.

Anyway, looking forward to this week's number, though it's still another couple of weeks until things get really interesting again.
Sorry for double-post, but actual piece of news. Shantae: Half-Genie Hero finally headed to Japan on May 31st. Switch and PS4. 5800 Yen + taxes at retail (taxes included for digital).
I don't think so, isn't the anime still ongoing?
Won't be surprised if it becomes a mobile gacha game though.
That was going to be my follow up question. Is the anime going?
I was one of the people who thought a switch port was a sure thing forever ago so I dunno now
Yes, the Monster Hunter Stories anime is still going (+70 episodes), but its timeslot is to be taken by the Layton anime in April, so it's most likely ending then.
And I don't think Capcom is going to do anything with the "series" moving forward. Game was already released on mobile (though as premium game), and is getting a content update next month. They did a weird promo match-3 game on mobile (Otomon Drop) too, but that's it.

That was a nostalgia comeback in term of traditionnal videogames.
The same could be said about many others (older) IP that are still relevant in pachinko because they catter to an older audience (>30/40 years old), but clearly HnK was one of, if not the, biggest possible contender.
I have seen it all. If you want me to keep quiet and not reveal your darkest secrets to the world, please send 50 BitCoins to the following address: l0lb1tc01nl0lz05rz.

WorldNeverland on Switch out on March 15th. Worlwide release. But 3 700 Yen? Ouch.
$29.99/€29.99 here. Double price of Stardew Valley. It's free to play on Smartphone, isn't it?
It can still described as a bomb if it sells much less than expected. I think they print copies depending on how many copies the stores are ordering and such. No idea what they expected in the first place though, rhytm games arent exactly mega sellers, but probably more than a ~2k opening. Hopefully this project will sell ok in the end, so it was worth it. (Very late reply, sorry, i forgot to reply earlier).
Yup, but with the usual microtransactions. Not sure Stardew Valley is an appropriate comparison, but I can see most people doing it.
I was gonna say that they're probably moving the MHS team to a proper MonHun for Switch but then I found out that it's apparently made by Marvelous?

Looks like the hint did indicate Switch > PS4. Quite expected for this week, though, along with the natural decline path of PS4 past MHW release.
Bayonetta 2 sales for week 2 at 5400 unit seem really good, expected a stronger decline with no Climax editions available.

seriously they should reprint the game as a new sku with a Bayo1 download code inside
Pachinko fans is not gaming fans. That is totally different market.
