If that Monster Hunter western-localization news is getting announced today, Nintendo must really have something bigger cooking at E3 besides full details on the new Smash.

That MH news could've been part of an E3 announcement in the Nintendo Direct and/or the Capcom press conference, but it was released today.

A big Splatoon announcement is coming soon. Nintendo will have news that will “shock the world” on June 9, the latest issue of Weekly Jump teases.

That’s the only information the magazine has, unfortunately. We’ll be sure to share that news – whatever it may be.

 
Played Splatoon and that jawn was pretty fun. Def need better weapons and skills in order to get better.
 
I think we all did. Halo went to trash and bungie was our safe spot. After farming the hive for 5 hours I finally asked myself what the **** am I doing this for? You get the exotic weapons to farm for more exotic weapons
Playing gears 4 mp is worse
Nothing to really play for
Except coins to buy skins :smh:

GameStop’s system lists 16 new SKUs for Switch
Posted on May 10, 2018 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch




GameStop’s internal database has updated with over a dozen new Switch SKUs. The system has populated with 16 titles, all of which have the name “Available SKU” at present.

Here’s a look:




We’re a month out from E3, so these listings could be placeholders for potential Switch games. Though not every single entry may be new (GameStop’s site doesn’t currently have a listing for something like Metroid Prime 4 as one example), they should be for upcoming pre-orders.

This actually isn’t the first time we’ve seen something like this. Similar situations with GameStop’s mystery SKUs took place before Nintendo Directs in January and March.

Rumor: Xenoblade Chronicles 2 datamine reveals story DLC details, big news about new Blades
Posted on May 10, 2018 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Rumors, Switch




Datamining has often led to new information about games being uncovered early. For example, a bunch of costumes were found in update files for Super Mario Odyssey ahead of time, which Nintendo has slowly started adding in over the past couple of months.

Another datamine appears to have taken place for another Switch game, and it’s pretty huge. Details about Xenoblade Chronicles 2’s story DLC have apparently been uncovered, as well as information about new Blades.

We have a roundup of information below – proceed at your own risk.


– Takes place in the Aegis War
– The Driver-Blade mechanic is gone
– Instead you control characters like Addam, Mythra, Brighid, Minoth, Lora, etc. directly
– They all have 7 Arts
– Characters like Addam for example can’t upgrade their weapons with core chips
– Blade data for Jin, Haze and seemingly Malos exists, so they could be potential rewards
– Datamine confirms that The Conduit is the Zohar (might just be a reference to its shape though)

“Proverbs 1:7
timor Domini principium scientiae sapientiam atque doctrinam stulti despiciunt
(The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. The foolish despise wisdom as well as doctrine.)

Proverbs 1:8-9
audi fili mi disciplinam patris tui et ne dimittas legem matris tuae
(Listen, my son, to the discipline of your father, and forsake not the law of your mother,)

ut addatur gratia capiti tuo et torques collo tuo
(so that grace may be added to your head and a collar to your neck.)”





As far as new Blades go, players will supposedly be able to use Shulk and Fiora in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 – both from the original Xenoblade Chronicles. Shulk has the Monado of course, and one of his taunts is apparently “I’m really feeling it”.

As always with these types of situations, we do have to warn that this information is technically not confirmed. However, datamining has proven to be accurate in the past.
