As part of some anniversary celebrations, Shantae developer WayForward has announced it will be bringing the "classic action-sports-RPG" Xtreme Sports to the Switch eShop on 10th August.
Xtreme Sports originally made its debut on the Game Boy Color back in the year 2000 as a North American exclusive. It was eventually made available in PAL regions when it was re-released on the 3DS Virtual Console service in 2014.

There will also be a Limited Run Games physical release of Xtreme Sports. It's currently "in production" with the estimated shipping date listed as TBD.
