News by Matt S. Visual novel specialist, Otomate, has announced a simply staggering amount of support for the Nintendo Switch. One of the last bastions of PlayStation Vita development, this wholesale shift is perhaps the final nail on the coffin for Sony’s underappreciated console. Otomate had already announced Hakuoki Shinkai:…

Before the Nintendo Switch was even released Nintendo was promising customers that at some point down the track its online services would transition to become a monthly subscription service, much as Sony and Microsoft have done.
