Has Nintendo delivered a new level of splendor with the new Switch 2 or should you keep your expectations docked?
Marvelous has announced that digital pre-orders are now open for Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma, for Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, and PC.
WTMG's Oliver Shellding: "That, perhaps, is the greatest takeaway from the entire ordeal: the love. However much you may roll your eyes at the classic trope of a boy coming to the rescue of a girl, there’s such genuine emotion in the notes that Nous has left for Bios. There’s some brilliant voice acting done by Nous, which must fill the silence that Bios creates as he refrains from making a single noise throughout the journey. But she longs for him, she holds his heart dear, and his determination and steadfast movement through hostile, unknown dangers to find her again speak volumes without a word. It’s not a perfect title, but it’s wonderfully memorable, and I highly encourage anyone and everyone to take a chance on Star Overdrive. The beauty is simple, in the end: Bios and Nous are one, and that drives their entire future to the stars and beyond."
Consumers in Japan prefer the cheaper Japanese language-only Nintendo Switch 2, resulting in a higher lottery success for the global model.
But of course, it's around 30% cheaper when compared to the global model. That kind of price difference really makes it hard to ignore. Even I would be interested in getting one, and I barely speak Japanese.
I hope I can secure one on launch!
