In a wide-ranging discussion on his career with fellow Japanese developer Ikumi Nakamura, the man behind beloved action classics like Devil May Cry and Bayonetta directly addressed his old employer, Capcom, with a request: let him back in the studio to make sequels to two of his games.
Hideki Kamiya - the director behind Resident Evil 2, Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, and the Wonderful 101 - has his eyes set on one day making sequels to Okami and Viewtiful Joe.
The Nintendo Switch seems to be leaving quite a bit of performance on the table at its vanilla clock speeds, judging from a new overclocking test video shared online.
Nintendo turned things around with the Switch. Before its launch, the Wii U was languishing well in third place in the console wars and, after considerable pressure, the company was making its first tentative steps into mobile gaming with Miitomo and Super Mario Run. Fast-forward to today and Nintendo continues to sell millions of Switch units each year, even with the console being nearly eight years old. This is likely due in part to the Switch’s unique hybrid format and an ever-growing game library with uncharacteristically strong third-party support. Whether you’ve had your Nintendo Switch for many years or you just bought one, there are plenty of great titles to try for the first time. We’ve collected our favorite Nintendo Switch games here, in a list we’re constantly reevaluating, and don’t worry if you have a Switch Lite — every game on the list is fully supported by the portable-only console.

But you might not have expected Eve to have been inspired by the lead of a 21-year-old GameCube cult classic.
The soon-to-be-released Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door remake doesn't run at 60 frames per second like the original GameCube release, but it is likely due to the developer's choice to prioritize other things over frame rate and performance.
PlatinumGames went to great lengths in its attempts to make Bayonetta Origins: Cereza and the Lost Demon run at a stable 60 frames per second on the Nintendo Switch. That's according to a senior company official, who recently offered some keen insights into the studio's decision to ultimately abandon the idea of trying to make its Switch meet that performance target.
Nier director Yoko Taro says that the upcoming action RPG Stellar Blade makes him "quite jealous" as he reckons it's "much better" than Automata itself – strong words of praise, if not a tad self-deprecating from Taro.
