Ultimate Fishing Simulator is a best-selling fishing game developed by the Polish studio Bit Golem. It has been converted to Xbox One by Console Labs S.A. This version is being published by Ultimate Games S.A. and PlayWay S.A. The basic edition available on Microsoft’s console will offer three DLCs upon launch, with subsequent ones being scheduled for later. In the following months, Ultimate Fishing Simulator will also hit PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch.
The fishing simulator debuted on the PC in August 2018 and is currently the highest rated game in its category. Currently, the percentage of positive reviews on Steam is as high as 86% and the game holds a Metascore of 70/100.The publisher reports that so far, the game has been bought by over 130 thousand people, and the number of sold add-ons has exceeded 100 thousand. The VR edition is also very popular.
“The premiere on Xbox One is the console debut of the Ultimate Fishing Simulator brand. The conversion takes into account the specific nature of Microsoft’s console, but it is the most faithful port possible. Many fisheries, various species of fish, very diverse fishing techniques, dynamic weather changes, a skill development system or a view from the perspective of the lure – these are only some of the game’s features. Naturally, the simulator is being developed mainly with lovers of virtual fishing in mind, but we have also prepared an additional mode that allows those who have no idea about catching fish to enjoy the game. What’s important, upon purchase, the Xbox One owners will receive not only the base game, but also three DLCs” – said Rafał Jelonek, COO at Ultimate Games S.A.

Castle Flipper, a unique simulator of a medieval renovator and builder, will also hit Xbox One and Xbox Series X/S. The developers explain that it’s not just a “medieval House Flipper”, but also a builder game allowing players to, among others, build whole castle complexes from the ground up. The game will debut on PC on May 26th this year, and later it will also hit consoles: PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch. The console versions can be expected this or next year.
In Castle Flipper, the player takes on the role of a medieval renovator and builder, who starts with an inherited piece of land, and dreams
of his own kingdom. The gameplay involves both carrying out orders (such as cleaning, repairing and furnishing various buildings and castles), as well as developing your settlement as you see fit. As you progress through the game, you’ll also unlock additional types of tools and skills.
“We are transporting players into the European reality at the turn of the 16th and 17th century. In addition to medieval buildings, the game also features architectural solutions known from the Baroque and Renaissance period, which opens even more possibilities. We have focused on calm, relaxing gameplay, which also features elements stimulating the players’ creativity. We have developed, among others, a proprietary freebuilding system that allows you to freely create a variety of structures” – said Jacek Wyszyński, CEO at Pyramid Games S.A.
Learn how to play all SNES Cartridges and Roms from USB on your SNES Mini, NES Mini and Shonen Jump Mini.
Classic 2 Magic (C2M) is an external plug & play accessory for the SNES Classic Mini that allows users to play any of their original SNES cartridges on their SNES Classic. It also includes additional features to support more games and systems via a USB port.
Before we talk about this new advanced feature (and by advanced, we mean for people who truly like to experiment beyond limits), first, the good news for all our customers: We receive a lot of requests from users who can't find certain games in original format and ask us if they know where they could find the ROMs using C2M to play them on their SNES Mini. Well better than that, a forum member of the popular Maxconsole.com site posted a batch of ROMpacks. Not only for SNES, but also for many other systems, N64, GBA, Genesis (Megadrive) and more. We couldn't count, but a good approximate is 8000+ games are available there.
Simply go to: https://www.maxconsole.com, then copy the games you like to a USB memory stick (USB thumb drive), insert in your C2M, and your SNES Mini Classic turns into the most complete retro gaming console ever!! Enjoy endless retro gameplay!
Now for the true geeks the C2M team (which obviously are geeks as well) have developed some software that allows you to use C2M to run any SNES cartridge on basically any system that supports USB: PC Computer, Raspberry Pis, games consoles, etc. We are not going to get into too much details now, as it will get most of you lost quickly, but if you know your stuff, you will love this.
All files and instructions are included in the Download section of our site. http://classic2magic.com/
If you are a techie, you will love this.
That's it for today. Oh, and one last thing: yes, we do have in plan for C2M for NES Classic, it is already in the works, and we are hoping for Nintendo to release a N64 Classic. We can't wait to dust off our Goldeneye cart!
