What once reigned as the best-selling console in the US is coming up short in sales.
In its latest earnings report, Nintendo showed a 19.2 percent decrease in Switch sales compared to the same time period last year. The company blames the dip on the chip shortage, which also affected the console’s sales in its two previous quarters.
We already knew Final Fantasy XVI would be a timed exclusive for the PS5, but now we know how long we’ll have to wait to play the title on another console (via Eurogamer).
In a brief Final Fantasy XVI clip shown in a trailer posted by PlayStation, the fine print at the bottom of the screen says it’ll remain a “PS5 exclusive for six months” when it comes out next summer.
And it’s called Gimmighoul. Nintendo confirmed the name — and appearance — of the mysterious purple creature after a data miner spotted it in the Pokémon Go app last week.
In its chest form, Gimmighoul wears a treasure chest as its shell, while in its roaming form, it carries a gold coin on its back. The quirky ghost-type Pokémon will make an appearance in the upcoming Pokémon Violet and Scarlet, as well as in Pokémon Go.
