  3. Any #yugioh fans on here? I have a question about a YuGiOh game for the Nintendo Switch and I'm having a little trouble navigating around some of the many, many versions of this title that appear to exist.

    My question (basically) is... can I play this game, this specific game cartridge, in English? At first, I thought it might be compatible, even though it's not on the list on Perfectly Nintendo, because while their is comprehensive, it's not perfect, and I've found more than a couple Japanese games that supported English as a language. The info for the game lists it as having multi-language support... I think.

    See, as I was digging, I saw a mention on one of the wikis that there was a regular and a "global" release of this, and that the Global release lost amiibo support, and that worries me because if they're going to make two specific versions of the game, it usually means that first one is ONLY in Japanese, and the global one is for the rest of us pleebs.

    So... any help?

  5. The EU’s food border inspectors get busier in an era of expanding trade.

    Europe is opening new trade routes and strengthening its system for controlling imported food.

    EUobserver went to Antwerp to see how it is done.
