Should you happen upon some of these resplendent blossoms, you can release one of your stored Great Wirebugs to activate the launch pad. Jewel Lilies can be shortcuts to higher ground, paths to new and exciting areas, or a slingshot straight towards useful loot. Most of the time when you come across a patch of Jewel Lilies, it’s worth deploying a Great Wirebug when you’ve got one - there are plenty available to occupy all of the flower beds through the game’s five locales....

The upcoming Mortal Kombat movie apparently goes “right to the limit” of what it can get away with in terms of violence. That’s according to director Simon McQuoid, who told SFX Magazine – as reported by GamesRadar – that it takes its R rating seriously. Apparently, there’s stuff like someone ripping a foe’s heart out. You know, normal, cool stuff. “We wanted to push the [blood, gore and fatalities] right to the limit,” McQuoid said....

Because of this, much of the previously released DLC only available through BioWare Points can now be acquired free of charge (via reddit.) This means that if you own Dragon Age: Origins, Dragon Age 2, Mass Effect 2, or Mass Effect 3 on Origin, you get the DLC for no charge (thanks, GamesRadar). The only items not available for free are the multiplayer packs for Mass Effect 3. If you have some spare BioWare Points, you can use these to purchase the packs until October 11....

Square Enix officially announced that the cult classic Nintendo DS game will get a sequel, some 14 years after the original title arrived on Western shores.

Given that this showcase is indie focused, we’re probably not going to hear about anything from Nintendo itself unless it’s a collaboration with a third-party indie developer. Instead, expect to hear about the freshest upcoming indie games partnering with Nintendo to release on the Switch. And if the previous Indie World from last April is any indication, we’ll get some new information about some real gems, like when the latest TMNT game was revealed....

As a result, many players decided to temporarily pick servers in regions outside their own simply because they had shorter wait times, with the understanding that they will be able to move back to their own regions once the feature arrives. “So the ‘transfer to any server’ statement issues earlier was not true?” a question reads. “Unfortunately the original information provided was incorrect.” The post further explains that each region has its own separate database, which is why “it is not possible to re-assign as character to a different region....

According to a Nikkei report, Nintendo is no longer shipping Switch systems in Japan as it is unable to keep up with demand. Part of the reason can be blamed on supply chain disruptions caused by the coronavirus, according to a person familiar with Nintendo speaking with the outlet.

In a new interview with Polygon, Bowser stated that “we believe we’re just at the midpoint of this life cycle on [the Nintendo Switch] platform,” when asked about the likelihood of an upgraded Switch model coming to retail.

The Nintendo Switch Pro Controller barely receives any sort of discount. A $20 off deal might not seem like much, but it’s one of the largest price cuts you can expect during the year. As per Nintendo’s official post, the deal is only valid on Cyber Monday. Expect tomorrow’s price to either rise to the less impressive $59.99 discount or full price altogether. Act now while the controller is at its lowest price–you might not see this high of a discount again until 2022....

While some baddies are bigger reskins of earlier enemies, many have unique attack patterns, or at least combine moves you’ve seen before in hilariously punishing new ways. Below is our ongoing list of Nioh 2 boss guides, collecting advice and strategies on how to beat most of the toughest bosses throughout the game. We’ve stuck mostly to the bosses you’ll find in Nioh 2’s main missions, but there was one side mission fight I felt needed a page since it threw two tough enemies your way at once....
