Samurai Shodown<\/em><\/a> will finally make its Nintendo Switch debut – in Japan at least – on December 12, as reported by yesterday by Weekly Famitsu.<\/p> The article also confirmed that the Switch port will run at a full 60 frames-per-second and support single Joy-Con support per player, so you can Ippon with a buddy on the go. Far more surprisingly, Early purchases will include a digital download of Neo Geo Pocket Color title Samurai Shodown! 2.<\/em><\/p> There’s currently no news as to whether Samurai Shodown<\/em> for Switch will arrive in the west during the same time frame, but we will, of course, keep you informed if new information comes through. Samurai Shodown<\/em> is available now on PS4 and Xbox One, arrives in Japan on Nintendo Switch December 12, and will be ported to PC in future.<\/p> Samurai Shodown for Nintendo Switch launches
