News & Reviews:   Nintendo Switch

So some of you might already know, but there was a new Pokemon announcement that a new game was in development. Pokefans were hoping for a Diamond/Pearl remake but turned out it was Pokemon United, a MOBA version for the Nintendo Switch, iOS and Android. Yes, it is cross-platform and yes, nobody was asking for it, but it makes sense from a business point of view.

In the land of the rising sun, there is a well-known Japanese game peripheral brand called HORI and they have just recently come up with 12 different Pikachu-themed gaming peripherals for the Nintendo Switch.

It's looking like 2020 isn't a good year to pick up a Nintendo Switch, not if you already bought one before prices started spiking. Major supply issues and increase in demand saw prices of the console soar recently and even though Nintendo supposedly raised the production of parts by 20%, it's still not enough. A new report claims that a new round of shorage is very likely to happen.

Although Nintendo Switch has been launched almost three years ago, the console is still a popular choice for gaming while everyone is staying home now. Not to mention with the launch of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Nintendo Switch has reached the peak of selling out the consoles across regions, making the company raise production by 20 percent to counter the shortage. While Nintendo is busy with the production of the Nintendo Switch, there is still rumour coming up for the next generation console saying it will use a processor by Samsung and AMD.

If you want to read manga on your Nintendo Switch, you could do that by downloading the InkyPen app and sign up for a monthly subscription. The library of comics available through the app wasn't a very large one before this, but that's changing now that InkyPen has inked (heh!) a new deal with a manga publisher. Users will now be able to read manga licensed by Kodansha on their Nintendo Switch.

Earlier this year, rumours of a new model of the Nintendo Switch surfaced. This rumoured Pro variant of the console was supposed to support 4K resolution, but Nintendo was quick to deny this a few days later. However, there's a new rumour that suggests a new Switch is still possible, just not the 4K Pro model from the previous rumour.

Are you running out of space in your Nintendo Switch? Fret not, there is a new software update rolling out globally. Dubbed as Version 10.0.0, this update has finally fixed the issue of not allowing gamers to move their games from the internal storage to the SD card. This includes all downloadable software, updates, and even DLC.

If you recall, there was news yesterday of how Nintendo is facing a shortage for Switch consoles globally. While unconfirmed, there may be some good news for those who are looking to buy one.
