GameStop Retailer will Close Down 200 Stores Soon

GameStop Retailer will Close Down 200 Stores Soon

It seems that GameStop will soon go the way of Blockbuster: no one needs physical copies of their entertainment anymore. Digital purchases and downloads are simply more convenient and more efficient. GameStop has a slight advantage in the fact that they sell things you do need physical copies of, like controllers and consoles themselves. But there’s no denying that video games were the main source of income for GameStop, and they just aren’t making that money like they used to.

Final Fantasy 7 Remake will have a Classic Mode

The Final Fantasy 7 Remake is not far off now, and lots of fans are excited for it. We already knew that the remake would make a lot of changes to the game mechanics to go along with that visual and audio overhaul, such as a big change to the battle system. Some fans might have been a little miffed about the impact on the game’s nostalgia value without a turn-based combat system, but it turns out they had nothing to fear. During a gameplay demo at Tokyo Game Show 2019, it was revealed that there will be a ‘Classic Mode’, which will revert the combat back to the old school 1997 turn-based menu system.

Assassin's Creed Switch

Two More Assassin’s Creed Games may be Coming to the Switch

While it still feels a little odd for a Nintendo gaming platform to have some not very kid-friendly titles made available for it, it’s pretty clear at this point that we can expect it to become the norm. After all, now that Bulletstorm of all games is getting a Switch release, is there anything too uncouth for the Nintendo Switch? Either way, there was a brief listing on The Console Club recently, which offered a preorder for an Assassin’s Creed 4: Black Flag, and Assassin’s Creed: Rogue Bundle. The bundle was listed for the rough equivalent of about $42.00, but it has been removed since then.

EA Access and Origins Access are the subscription based online game services offered by Electronic Arts, for consoles and PC. They generally have a wide range of EA published games available for subscribers to play, but they don’t have literally all EA games, which means there’s always more that can be added. This month, both Origin and EA Access are getting some major additions, those being FIFA 20 and Anthem. Origin Access is actually getting a few more games than its console equivalent, such as the platformer Yooka-Laylee, but the two big titles will be available on all platforms.

Version 9.0 of Nintendo Switch firmware is now out, as of September 9th. With it comes many tweaks, bug fixes, and changes, as well as a few minor features.

The update also includes the ability to stop the Switch from recognizing inputs from the console buttons, with the exception of the Home and Capture buttons.
