The latest issue of Weekly Famitsu reveals that Samurai Shodown will be coming to the Nintendo Switch on 12th December in Japan. Thankfully, the game runs at a buttery smooth 60fps and also supports single Joy-Con per player multiplayer. If you purchase the game early then you are entitled to receive a Nintendo Switch version of the classic retro title, Samurai Shodown 2 which was released on the NEO GEO Pocket Colour.
Japan: Samurai Shodown for Nintendo Switch coming 12th December

The dlc better come on the cartridge since they decided to wait so long to release the switch version.
They have been including DLC before. At least when King of Fighters XIV went from PS4 to Steam. But they keep adding stuff all the time, and there will be more characters next year I think, so you probably will habe to download something either way is my guess.
This game is one of my favourite fighter games since Garou Mark of the Wolves. I liked King of Fighters XIV, but I’ve miss the Fatal Fury Real Bout games a lot. This Samurai Shodown is on par with the classics and better still imo. It sooo goooood!
