As for western regions, SNK has confirmed that Samurai Shodown will be coming to the Switch in the first quarter of 2020. The Japanese release date has not been changed. A release window announcement trailer has also been posted on Nintendo’s YouTube channel, so you can see it for yourself down below.

I’m kinda interested in this game – what is the pre order bonus you speak of?
You’ll get Samurai Spirits from the Neo Geo Pocket Color as a pre-order bonus. It’s a Game Boy-esque type Samurai Showdown game.
Damn dude, that sounds actually inviting…
Might have to check it out, thanks !
Samurai Showdown is the western name of Samurai Spirit.
This game is one of the best fighters ever. Been playing it quite a lot for a while, but now is Terry in Smash taking my time :P No prob they’ve “delayed” it.
What do you by western?
Why do you keep saying western this, western that? It’s English.
You know there are territories outside US and Japan that do mot speak English, and still get games, right?
