If you’re not Rank S+10, you will be able to climb to Rank X by going up a rank from Rank S+9. Also, every month, the SplatNet 2 app will display the Top 500 Rank X players for each one of the 4 Rules (Splat Zones, Tower Control, Rainmaker, Clam Blitz). The app will also show the Rank X players that uses a specific weapon a lot, so that players can see who are the best Rank X players using the same weapons as themselves. But that’s not all. Currently, more than 20 stages can appear in one of the 4 Ranked Battle Rules. While this allows for lots of variety in the stage rotation, it also makes it hard for a specific combination of stages and rules to go live at the same time. That’s why from Ver. 3.0.0 onwards, the stages for each rule will be selected from a pool of only 8 stages, making it much more likely for a given stage to appear in a given Rule. The pool of stages for each rule will be changed once a month, at the same time as the Rank X reset. That Pinball FX3 Switch Patch Is Coming After All - Nintendo Life — The community has spoken, and as we pride ourselves in doing at Zen Studios, we are listening. Zen is happy to confirm that we will in fact release a patch to bring all Pinball FX3 content to 60 FPS in handheld mode on Nintendo Switch this summer. The time between now and then will be spent achieving 60 FPS in handheld mode and 1080p Full HD in docked mode for all 30+ tables in the library, plus testing and then publishing submissions to Nintendo. In the meantime, we still proudly stand by the current Switch iteration of Pinball FX3, which currently boasts a very respectable 83 Metacritic rating, and we will continue to release exceptional content in the months to come. As longtime followers of Zen well know, we have been one of the most community-friendly game developers for over a decade. We have focused on long-term relationshi

Tune in live at https://www.twitch.tv/runjumpstompEmail from iReallyShouldBeWorking! — Hey, RJS. Longtime Lurker, first time writing in. Love the show. Thank you for all you do. I love the Switch. I think the portability factor is perfect for indies, but many indies today are often $20 to $30 each. Here's an idea for your viewers with access to an Xbox One. Microsoft offers a 14 day free trial to Game Pass, and it offers access to many games, including several indies new to the Switch. I was able to join Game Pass on a free trial, and try out The Final Station and Rime, both games I'm interested in for Switch but was weary of paying $20 or $30 upfront without being sure I'd enjoy them. If you have an Xbox One, it's s a great opportunity to try before you buy. Thanks so much, iReallyShouldBeWorking!Nintendo Direct Tonight 5pm US Eastern — My guesses.

Tune in live at https://www.twitch.tv/runjumpstompEmail from Rock Roberge — Hey RJS, Just a quick note to anyone playing Rocket League on Switch. Version 1.04 was released today, and it does NOT fix the notorious crash issue introduced by 1.03 on Switch. I've spent hours working with Psyonix support to test, capture, and help to identify the issue, so it was pretty disappointing to find no relief with today's update. Anyway, please encourage your listeners to open a ticket with Psyonix if Rocket League is crashing on their switch (link below). This is related to loot crate items (Victory crates) introduced about a month ago... the more of these you have in your inventory, the higher the crash frequency (especially if you have any of these items equipped in your presets). https://oauth.rocketleague.com/?brand_id=1679428&locale_id=1&return_to=https%3A%2F%2Fsupport.rocketleague.com%2Fhc%2Fen-us%2Fsignin&timestamp=1520285910 Thanks much, and all the best!My Nintendo — You can now use My Nintendo Gold Points when purchasing Nintendo Switch digital games.The Studio That Ported Skyrim To Switch Wants To Tackle Monster Hunter World Next - Nintendo Life — Dear @monsterhunter team at Capcom - we understand that porting the game to Nintendo Switch is challenging (https://kotaku.com/bringing-monster-hunter-world-to-nintendo-switch-is-d-1822988009 …) but this is exactly what @IToTheG does.
