Good day mild readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for Could third, 2023. It’s a little bit of a quiet one at the moment, which might be to be anticipated given we at the moment are formally on Golden Week over right here in Japan. That tends to imply little or no information and few releases from this facet of the world, and after we’re speaking the Change that has a huge impact. Nonetheless, we have now a handful of latest video games to take a look at together with numerous gross sales, so it’s not nothing. Let’s get to it!
New Releases
Minit Enjoyable Racer ($2.99)
A cute little racing motion sport spun out of the somewhat good Minit. Apparently all the proceeds from this sport will go to charity? That’s cool. There are many wacky parts to maintain this from being simply one other Sunday drive, so should you’ve acquired a couple of bucks to blow and need to have some fast enjoyable, right here you go.
Arcade Archives Tecmo Knight ($7.99)
Phew, right here’s a deep lower. It is a 1989 beat-em-up from Tecmo (clearly), and it’s very uncommon to see it get rereleased. One of many speculated the explanation why is right down to how wildly gory it’s, simply holding tempo with the likes of video games like Splatterhouse. I can’t be utterly positive Hamster preserved all of it, nevertheless it appears to be intact. It predates the discharge of Ultimate Struggle so when it comes to playability it’s in all probability nearer to the Double Dragon facet of the road, nevertheless it’s pleasing sufficient. This one is extra concerning the Conan-style blood-and-guts journey than the gameplay mechanics, although.
Weeping Willow ($4.99)
It is a kinetic visible novel, which implies you don’t have any decisions to make. Only a story to learn because it performs out, so don’t are available anticipating something past that. The story sees the principle character’s husband disappear solely to return again a number of days later. Looks like it’s all good, proper? Only one drawback. The principle character is aware of that isn’t her husband, however everybody else appears to consider that it’s. As you may anticipate, some large issues shortly go down. Reasonably priced sufficient should you’re searching for one thing to learn.
Tremendous Dungeon Maker ($19.99)
Some of us have requested for a Zelda Maker alongside the traces of Tremendous Mario Maker for a very long time, and I don’t suppose Nintendo goes to be doing it anytime quickly. Maybe it can fall to indies to fill the hole, then. Tremendous Dungeon Maker gained’t allow you to make a full-on Zelda sport, however it can allow you to make some very Zelda-esque dungeons. You’ll be able to then share them on-line, which in fact means you’ll be able to play the dungeons different individuals have constructed. This type of factor tends to dwell or die by its group, and it’s actually not possible to say whether or not or not one will correctly kind right here. Bounce in should you really feel like being daring.
Colour Friends ($4.99)
I really feel like we noticed a sport similar to this not too long ago, however the title has escaped my Swiss cheese mind already. Anyway, it’s a platformer the place the gimmick is that you would be able to solely contact surfaces that match your present coloration. There are fifty phases to play, and a three-star system is in place so as to add a little bit of replay worth. Fairly normal five-dollar Change platformer fare, however that may be what you’re after at the moment.
Gross sales
(North American eShop, US Costs)
Some gross sales price noting at the moment, I feel. Various Ubisoft video games are hitting their lowest costs but, together with Starlink and Rayman Legends. Additionally hitting a brand new low is The Children We Had been, a sport I can not suggest sufficient. There are some things within the outbox, however I’ll give a particular call-out to Jupiter’s line of Picross video games. You’ll be able to by no means have sufficient of these, proper? Proper. Verify these lists!
