SwitchArcade Roundup: ‘Scott Whiskers’, ‘Bad Chicken’ and more today’s new releases and sales
Hello, dear readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade roundup going down on March 21, 2024. Today is Thursday, and which means there are lots of new games available on the eShop. That being said, the concentration of Bin Bunch games is high nowadays, and the decent titles don’t make up for it as much as I’d like. Well, I suppose some weeks are like that. Tomorrow shall be higher, but first we have now to cope with today. Once we have rounded up every thing price recapping, we move on to the new and expiring sales of the day. At least some more motion. Let’s get to the matches!
New releases
Scott Whiskers in: Searching for Mr. Fumbleclaw ($14.99)
Some extent-and-click adventure game through which you’re searching for a cat to participate in a cat beauty contest. It has an interesting look on account of its use of 3D characters on hand-drawn backgrounds, and its suggested twelve-hour running time makes it quite a considerable adventure all things considered. With a majority of these games, it’s nice to spend time on the Switch in handheld mode, and I stay up for devoting my time to it again every time the chance arises.
Bad Chicken ($19.99)
A side-scrolling shooter with a chicken who likes to inform silly jokes and references. It accommodates eight levels, tons of weapons and vehicles, and some extremely resistant enemies. I feel like attempting to lighten the mood is sort of as exhausting as a shooter where even popcorn enemies can miss multiple shots, but I’m sure a few of you’ll love this game. The vibrant visuals are actually pleasing to the attention, and the gameplay seems quite responsive.
Attack of the Karen ($4.99)
I’m not a fan of meme games, but individuals who like them may be keen on this new shooter. You pilot the X-15 Manager and go into battle with the evil cyborg Karens to avoid wasting your city from… sigh, “entitlement.” I do not know. It’s certainly one of those where you’ve to die 1,000,000 times to slowly improve yours to the purpose where you really have an honest likelihood of winning by chomping down morsel after morsel of currency. I’m sure there’s nothing unsuitable with that should you’re keen on this topic.
Fierce Sushi Battle ($19.99)
Somehow we have now two sushi-themed games today. However, they’re quite different from one another. It’s a team game for as much as 4 players in local multiplayer where you control strange little creatures and attempt to throw trash at one another. The last one standing wins, but even those that are knocked out can still argue with the opposite players. There is a single-player mode where you fight waves of zombie creatures, but it surely is primarily a multiplayer game. It looks like decent, chaotic fun, but I imagine most of us have already got loads of games to suit these needs.
Sushi Shot Online ($1.80)
I feel like I’ve seen this before, but whatever. It’s principally this, but with sushi as an alternative of fruit and the playing field reversed. The “Online” a part of the title refers to a game that has online leaderboards and online multiplayer for as much as 4 players. I suppose should you like matching fruit, you’d probably get not less than two dollars price of sushi matching fun? Your decision.
Arcade Archives Sneak Attack ($7.99)
Did you already know that Konami created a mode game in 1990? Certainly not. This is certainly one of the best things about Arcade Archives. Many of those games have had home ports, but some have remained in arcades and have been largely forgotten. I do not know if it’s great or what, but it surely sure looks nice and I at all times wish to play something like that. Maybe you’re too. If so, join me within the old rankings and we’ll see what we will do.
Crimson ($9.99)
A precise platformer with rhythmic elements and graphics and sound inspired by wild heavy metal. It looks hard on my eyes, but perhaps you will do higher. Plus, it stands out from the remainder when it comes to presentation. It’s also a difficult game, so your fingers shall be exercised just as intensely as your senses. Not for me, but I do know it is going to be useful to someone.
Stunt Paradise ($7.99)
Again, the good thing about the doubt for the new publisher. It looks like a reasonably straightforward tackle the Trials concept, except as an alternative of motorcycles you’ve twenty different cars to drive. There are fifty levels in total to play. Fantasy is kept to a minimum.
Sector 98 ($0.99)
An extremely accessible platformer through which you play as a little bit robot who must destroy several evil robots. There are twenty-five levels in total, which works out to 4 cents per level. If all you’ve is money, I can imagine worse gaming fates than this.
Bunch of Bins
April Diary ($14.99)
Death Combat: Deadly Vengeance ($9.99)
Pull The Pin: Ball Physics Puzzle ($4.99)
Special Forces Strike: Swat Tactical Shooter ($4.99)
Western Frontier ($2.23)
I see! Let’s hunt for photos! ($3.99)
Paper Dash – City Hustle ($9.99)
Air Traffic Simulator: Airport Dispatcher Simulator ($4.99)
Hentai Girl Panic ($5.99)
Turnover
I do not have anything particular to spotlight based on new sales, but there are some decent titles on the market should you’re searching for them. The outbox is largely the identical. None of those lists are ridiculously small or large, and none of them feature any mega-deals. Still, you may find something to search out should you scan. Go together with your heart.

Dragon Age: The Veilguard is getting new photo mode options and a slew of bug fixes in the latest update
If you want Back With , there are some nice quality of life changes and bug fixes in the latest update that went survive November 21, 2024. I’ll break them down below to let you already know what you are getting into.
Photo mode updates
Photo mode now has filters! And if you happen to do not know where images go in Photo Mode, wonder no more: the file path is now displayed in-game when taking screenshots, and filenames are simplified (with the date appended). You can now also bind arrow keys to input mappings.
Gameplay changes
Gameplay-wise, you’ll be able to now compare the new rings to the currently equipped rings in the slot, and the description for the Flash option is barely different. Some weapons have new icons to make it easier to tell them apart and make it easier to see where your companion’s spells are.
Extended dodge won’t be weirdly buggy with Mage’s Tower either. Some ability texts have been modified to be clearer (and accurate), and Antaam Champions deal barely more damage (as intended) and cases where enemies and teammates would get stuck in inaccessible places. Speaking of fixes, this brings us to the bugs that Patch 3 goals to eliminate.
Bug fixes
All kinds of bug fixes are included, but not all of them can have obvious or significant effects. The overall focus is on fixing issues encountered during cutscenes, interacting with meshes and polygons, in addition to some extremely minor balance adjustments to get certain elements working as intended.
In more detail, Rook will not suddenly change body shape or make strange facial expressions during or after certain cutscenes. Other cutscene issues have also been fixed, including strange stretchy capes and clothes showing through the character. The patch also addresses situations where music randomly stopped playing or incorrect sound effects or songs were playing.
Camera popup and stutter issues have also been fixed, and preferred HDR settings will now (finally) be saved accurately.
Fixed issues with the Codex, skill trees, quests, merchant inventory, quest objectives and cinematics, exploration, autosave loading, really shiny visuals, stat buffs, and weapon modifiers.
As a little bonus, some of the characters and environment textures have been tweaked to look higher.
There’s plenty to do in Thedas, and with this update landing, your journey should go a little smoother. Go back there, Rook, and test out that photo mode for me.
Full patch notes will be found on the website official blog post. BioWare has confirmed that one other patch may even be coming, with more details to be revealed soon.

The anime Scott Pilgrim on Netflix will not receive a second season
series creator Bryan Lee O’Malley announced that Netflix adaptation of the favored series will not receive a second season, confirming what many fans already assumed.
Released on Netflix in November 2023, it’s an eight-episode animated series based on O’Malley’s best-selling graphic novels. The series does not directly follow the novel’s plot, but reunites the solid of the 2010 live-action adaptation to voice their film characters from the series. Kenneth Shepard called it “a hilarious combination of brilliant wit (franchise) and balanced pop culture references” Unfortunately, the series will not see a second season.
November 20on the one-year anniversary of the premiere, series creator O’Malley tweeted that it was an “honor” to “work with the entire cast and crew around the world” and called the series “a one-of-a-kind miracle.” ” The creator also confirmed that Netflix recently released the second season of the animated adaptation.
“In any case, we recently received information that the series will not return,” he added. O’Malley said. “As you know, we only planned one season and asked a lot of favors to make it happen, so doing more would be almost impossible. But I know some of you had no hope.”
“I’m sorry to all Matthew and Gideon fans, I know you will suffer the most.” O’Malley added later to the tweet confirming the knowledge that there will be no second season.
While some fans were upset concerning the Netflix series and the way far it strayed from the unique graphic novels, many others were joyful to see a recent story featuring these characters. For now, it looks like that is the tip of this chapter of the series, regardless that there was a post-credits scene in the ultimate episode of the series.

The new PS Portal update could be a game changer for Sony mobile devices
The latest update for Sony surprisingly good PlayStation Portal adds a feature that individuals have been expecting since before the hand-held gaming device was released last yr. Starting today, PS Plus subscribers can now stream certain PS5 games via the cloud on their devices PS portal without console.
A yr ago, we got here across the PS portal and while it looked weird, it felt great and was a great device that allowed people to play PS5 games anywhere of their home via Wi-Fi. The $200 device works like a charm and is quietly among the finest things Sony has produced in a while. However, one big drawback to Portal was that for some reason it couldn’t stream games from the cloud. You needed to have a PS5 console, and when using the Portal, the PS5 console would activate and play the game remotely. This meant that PS Portal was more of an add-on than a console. But that is changing today.
On November 19, PlayStation released its latest update for PS Portal, and while it adds some nice quality of life improvements to audio settings, the true news is that starting today, players can play select PS5 games via the cloud and without a console. Theoretically, you’ll be able to now play PS5 games on the go, assuming you’ve gotten a Wi-Fi connection.
Sony says that with today’s update, you may be capable of stream over 120 PS5 games from the PS Plus games catalog on PS Portal. Games include and
How to stream cloud games on PS Portal
To start streaming PS5 games to your computer PS portal without a console, you’ll need an lively PS Plus Premium subscription, then you’ll need to download the update and follow these steps:
- Open the “Quick Menu” and go to “Settings” in your PS Portal.
- Select the “Cloud Streaming (Beta)” button.
- Enable the Cloud Streaming (Beta) switch (it’s going to be disabled by default).
Right now, Sony is looking it a beta test and never all features just like the capture button and group chat will be supported for games streamed on the Portal. Similarly, Sony doesn’t currently support PS2, PS3, PS4 games or games purchased on PSN.
Hopefully, after testing and more updates, Sony will expand support and switch PS Portal into a nice PlayStation streaming box where you’ll be able to play all of the classic games added to the catalog every month, in addition to games you own. This will make me rush out and buy it PS portal.
