Inti Creates have been hiding some presents for players who own Azure Striker Gunvolt Striker Pack for Nintendo Switch. On the official website and twitter, they mentioned that a new wallpaper celebrating christmas is available. They also mention a new and timed exclusive holiday theme game mode "Christmas Mode" will be available to play. This christmas mode is only playable on the Nintendo switch version of the game, and is only available for 2 days, the day before and on christmas. You can get the the new wallpaper and more for free with the link in the twitter post below.

To be more specific, this is simply a easter egg in the game. The game requires no update to access, in fact is accessible anytime, even right now. To access the easter the game mode, follow these instructions.

  1. Turn on the nintendo switch
  2. Go to options then System settings
  3. Set the clock's date to December 24 or 25 (make sure to take off clock sync so the clock doesn't auto update)
  4. Start the game and choose Azure striker gunvolt (The second game does not work with this)
So basically you don't need to wait till then to try it, and can be tried anytime after. Of course if no one had done something like this, it would be well hidden until you got lucky enough to actually play this on that day or found the announcement. Is not often devs are able to put stuff into a game and hide it until the right time without someone exposing it before the intended time, probably nothing too enticing for most people, but I appreciate they did cause it shows just how much they care about their game and some fans as well, is basically a appreciation gesture to players of the game.

Not many games have such features but there has been some in the past, Sonic sega all star racing had locked Alex Kidd as a hidden character only accessible after christmas day of 2013, which some had discovered before the right time, sonic adventure 2 has halloween costumes in 2 player mode when playing on october 31.

Just a reminder, they also have two games announced next year, Dragon Marked for Death and Gal Gun 2 will be available for nintendo switch. Dragon Marked for death is a game that features 4 player co-op action gameplay in the style of Mega Man Zero series of games having the core development team members of the series return to work on the game. Gal Gun 2 is the newest addition to the series of their raunchy anime rail shooter. The player controls the protagonist who is forced into a situation by the love angel Eroko for her mistake, all the girls at school have fallen for him and now you need to blast the girls of the school with pheromones shots to tame them.

As bonus to wrap this up, announced on their twitter, 3 New characters will be added to Mighty Gunvolt burst as $2 dlc on december 28. The main antagonist from the 3 games that started this crossover will be coming, Ray from Mighty no 9, Copen from Azure striker gunvolt, and Kurona from Gal Gun. Also, happy holidays. Personally I like to thank inti creates for their games this year. Is not at the status level as some other games introduced to the switch but I like what I am seeing so far and will look forward to seeing more next year.

    I could still always use my old android phone as a mp3 player but I get lost in the music and miss calls that way

    Thanks for the like and then taking it away
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    It's been discontinued but you can find em second hand. It's the FiiO model K1.
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ nice. I've been using my BTR5 pretty much daily, got it in late 2020. Mostly use it as a desktop DAC though and the battery has already swelled up in it once, so I had to replace it. Some day I gotta grab a proper desktop DAC that doesn't have a battery lol

    @K3Nv3, Yeah, cheap and nasty earbuds don't deliver the best mids, they end up sounding really muddy.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, I got mine around 2022 (iirc) and it was brand new, never opened, and for £15 too compared to paying nearly £30 elsewhere.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, That sucks when the battery already begins to swell up. You considering on a desktop replacement, and if so, which one?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ damn 15 is shockingly cheap for that. Even 30 feels like a good price just given what a bunch of other FiiO stuff costs. Granted, not familiar with what those were originally selling for, so who knows lol

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    As far as a replacement for my BTR5, I don't really have my eyes set on anything specific yet but it'll likely be from either Fiio or Schiit Audio.

    Better than tree fiddy
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Sicklyboy, Originally when it came out, they sold for around $40 USD according to FiiO's news bulletin. https://www.fiio.com/newsinfo/54677.html

    @Sicklyboy, I would prefer FiiO as the better brand for a USB DAC.

  • K3Nv3 @ K3Nv3:
    I feel like headphones reached a peak even ones from ten years ago sound better than new ones
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @K3Nv3, all depends how much money you wanna spend. I had skullcandy headphones and shit way back when but I never liked anything as much as the headphones (and earbuds) I use nowadays

  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @SylverReZ yeah fwiw I've been quite happy with my FiiO BTR5 so I don't have any specific reason to not a FiiO again. Just gotta see what's available and how much I'm trying to spend lol

    O GOD I see @BigOnYa
  • Jayro @ Jayro:
    I have the FiiO X1-ii, and love what it does, but the battery life is kinda ass and the sluggish, unresponsive menu makes me regret my purchase a little.
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    has anyone here played botw randomizer for switch?
  • NinStar @ NinStar:
    (not the wii u version, specifically the switch version)
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Frankly not. That's like a 'cheat engine' for BoTW, right?
