Howdy mild readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for June fifteenth, 2023. At this time is Thursday, and that usually means it’s the large new launch day. And I assume it kind of is, however issues are normally so wild that seeing a mere ten new video games on a Thursday feels gentle. It makes me nervous {that a} bunch of video games will shadow-drop after I’ve gone dwelling for the day. Effectively, nothing I can do about that. We’ve bought summaries of all the brand new video games, plus the lists of latest and expiring gross sales so that you can get pleasure from. Let’s go!
New Releases
Jack Jeanne ($49.99)
A much-anticipated visible novel from Aksys, Jack Jeanne tells the story of Kisa, a younger girl who goals of being an actor. She’s been invited to attend one of the prestigious drama colleges round, however there are a few catches. She should be chosen because the lead within the last efficiency of the yr, and she or he should conceal her gender. Each of these issues are simpler mentioned than finished due to her gifted and really hunky classmates. She has to compete in opposition to them for elements, however what occurs if love blooms on the battlefield? I feel Mikhail could be this one for us in some unspecified time in the future, so do sit up for that.
Fall of Porcupine ($19.99)
Play as Finley, who’s beginning a brand new job as a physician at St. Ursula’s Hospital within the city of Porcupine. It is a narrative journey sport that calls to thoughts issues like Night time within the Woods, and there’s much more happening on this little city than initially meets the attention. However you’ll be so busy it will likely be onerous to completely discover all of that, as you might have sufferers it’s essential are likely to through varied minigames. Effectively, determining a very good work/life steadiness is a part of the sport. Appears promising.
ProtoCorgi ($6.99)
Arguably the best corgi-based taking pictures sport launched on the eShop right this moment. ProtoCorgi sees you accountable for Bullet, who is classed as a Cute Cybernetic Corgi. He’s on a mission to rescue his good friend Nixie, and he’ll take down an evil alien menace on the best way as a result of he’s a go-getter pup like that. I’ll have a evaluate of this one quickly to let you recognize if it’s extra than simply an cute face within the crowd.
Birdie Wing -Golf Women’ Story- ($19.99)
Effectively, this was inevitable. The one questionable side was if it could get localized, and right here it’s. It’s a {golfing} sport based mostly on the anime from Bandai Namco Photos. This sport isn’t developed by them, thoughts you. Anyway, there’s plenty of story involving acquainted characters from the present, and also you naturally get to do some {golfing} every now and then as properly. Most likely one finest left to followers of the present.
Forest Golf Planner ($12.00)
Kairosoft is again with one other one, and it’s doing what a Kairosoft sport normally does. This time you’re constructing and managing a golf course, and that’s type of fascinating. We don’t see plenty of simulation video games that cowl that subject. Are you able to create the preferred course round? Sure, sure you’ll be able to. These video games are very simple and your victory is assured. Someway they’re nonetheless awfully onerous to place down, and that’s the case right here as properly. I’ve to do my common factor of reminding you that this may be discovered less expensive on cellular and performs simply as properly if not higher over there.
Arcade Archives Megablast ($7.99)
This week’s Arcade Archives sport is one other shoot-em-up, this time a horizontally scrolling affair from Taito. Megablast initially launched in 1989 and options eight phases of motion. Most likely essentially the most noteworthy side of it comes from its references to different Taito video games like Chack’n Pop and Bubble Bobble. Not one in every of Taito’s most well-known and much from its finest, but it surely’s a good sufficient sport to have a bash at every now and then.
Beat ‘Em Up Archives (QUByte Classics) ($9.99)
QUByte is again with extra emulated titles from the Piko Interactive catalogue. This time it’s a pair of beat-em-ups. Iron Commando sees you punching and blasting your means via the streets, whereas Legend is a fantasy themed sword-and-sorcery affair. I assume each had been initially Tremendous NES video games. You get the standard QUByte choices and common QUByte high quality with these, for higher or worse. I’ll have a evaluate quickly.
Summer season Daze: Tilly’s Story ($14.99)
A visible novel that has a little bit of an odd premise, apparently following a rogue pupil named Tilly Appleberry. She likes to trigger mischief, and your decisions will decide who she meets and I suppose by proxy who she’s going to mess with for the sake of the upcoming Harvest Pageant. Usually I wouldn’t pay this a lot heed, however the story was apparently written by Lori Ann Cole of Quest for Glory fame, so it could be greater than it seems to be.
Ghost Recordsdata: The Face of Guilt ($14.99)
Artifex Mundi is again with one other of its journey video games, this time within the Ghost Recordsdata sequence. The protagonist is a police detective and it’s essential assist her resolve her newest case. This will likely or could not contain hidden object puzzles and/or minigames. Not my type of factor, but it surely could be yours.
Misplaced Lands: Sand Captivity ($6.99)
Now that we live within the period the place I simply admit my basic lack of curiosity in hidden object adventures and transfer on, I’m not going to go on concerning the story of this sport. Susan is again to motion once more, principally. Discover the hidden objects, play the minigames, and save the world or one thing. This looks as if one other first rate instance of its style, so don’t take my lack of enthusiasm to imply it’s no good.
Gross sales
