Select New Releases

Castlevania Dominus Collection ($24.99)

A fantastic surprise! This third Castlevania compilation features the three Nintendo DS titles: Dawn of Sorrow, Portrait of Ruin, and Order of Ecclesia. It also includes the notoriously bad arcade game, Haunted Castle, alongside an M2-developed remake that significantly improves upon the original. This collection offers exceptional emulation and features; a truly incredible value.

Pizza Tower ($19.99)

This Wario Land-inspired platformer is a whirlwind of frantic action. Players must navigate five massive floors of the Pizza Tower to destroy it and save their restaurant. Fans of classic Wario platformers will adore this; even those without strong Wario nostalgia should consider giving it a try. A review is pending.

Goat Simulator 3 ($29.99)

Another surprise release! It's Goat Simulator 3, and you know the drill. Performance on the Switch is uncertain, as even more powerful systems have faced challenges. Proceed with caution, but remember, even poor performance might add to the game's chaotic charm. Expect silly goats, silly antics, and potentially, a stressed-out Switch.

Peglin ($19.99)

EA's missed opportunity to bring PopCap games to Switch is a shame. But for Peggle fans, Peglin is a fantastic alternative. This mobile hit is now on Switch, blending Peggle mechanics with turn-based RPG roguelite elements. A review is coming soon.

Doraemon Dorayaki Shop Story ($20.00)

Kairosoft adds a popular license to its tried-and-true simulation formula. Doraemon Dorayaki Shop Story features characters from the beloved Doraemon series. The license is well-integrated, even including cameos from the manga artist's other works. It's charming!

Pico Park 2 ($8.99)

More Pico Park for existing fans. Up to eight players can enjoy local or online multiplayer in this cooperative puzzle game. The more, the merrier! While enjoyable, it doesn't offer enough new content to attract newcomers.

Kamitsubaki City Ensemble ($3.99)

An affordable rhythm game featuring Kamitsubaki Studio music. Simple, but enjoyable for the price.

SokoPenguin ($4.99)

A classic Sokoban-style puzzle game with a penguin twist. One hundred levels of crate-pushing await.

Q2 Humanity ($6.80)

Over three hundred quirky physics-based puzzles. Players use character abilities and drawing to solve problems. Supports up to four players locally or online.
