Nintendo Download: 26th April (North America)

Pre-purchased Saturday Morning RPG in the hopes of a sequel and a Saturday Morning fix.

And looking out for sales.

where are the Naruto games?

Isn't the PixelJunk Monsters 2 demo supposed to come out tomorrow for the Switch?

I'll be picking up sonic forces at that price.

Will look at the sales, and hope for Deadth road soon.

Gear Club Unlimited is also getting an update today in addition to some free and paid dlc.

SMRPG for me.

KORG Gadget, Sky Rogue, and I guess I'll check out Stakes Winner because I've been missing Derby Owner's Club for the longest.

Oh my. KORG is actually doing it. Depending on what kind of audio/MIDI import/export options they provide this could be the version to get (now if I wasn't already in so deep with the iOS version).

Interested in KORG and Light Fall.

In addition to countless discounts, now The Bridge has a demo? They really are trying to sell this sucker aren’t they?

Modern game systems are absolutely drowning in 2D Indie crap. To the outside eye, it could look like gaming never left the 16 bit era.

Where's Jotun Vahalla edition in the choice to vote?????

Nothing for me this week. Really like that drawing on top - maybe will check - Jotun: Valhalla Edition - after done with GOW. Really digging the Norse mythology.

Also, Amazon has a sale on the 200GIG micro SD for $55

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073JY5T7T/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Sky Rogue for me.

Nothing for me. Nothing for the 3DS at all.

Just bought Gal*Gun 2 on Switch and some PS4/Vita games in the Golden Week sale, so I think I'm going to hold off on purchasing anything for a while. Hollow Knight or Y's VIII will probably be next, depending on which releases first.

Sky Rogue! I think I'm also gonna pick up Manticore. Should hold me till Everspace releases!

Where's Naruto?

Anyways nothing for me since I picked up South Park on Tuesday.

Ghost Pilots
Brick Breaker
Aqua Moto
Sky Rogue for me!!

Aqua Moto and Snow Moto are how much? LOL

And that description for Sparkle Zero....wtf is that

@Stargazer Interestingly, Aqua Moto Racing and Snow Moto Racing are actually $10 cheaper if you get them physically ($29.99 each).

I've had my eye on "A Robot Named Fight" ever since it was released on PC, but never got around to playing it. Guess I'll pick it up on Switch...eventually.

I'll have to look into Light Fall, & Saturday Morning RPG; they sound interesting. Korg I will get, when I get a Switch.

@StephenYap3 I had to double check the list because the first thing I thought of was Super Mario RPG lol

Im gonna hold off on Saturday Morning RPG until I can buy it for 29.99. It feels more fun that way

I'll grab the three arcade games for sure and then maybe a couple others. Not too bad.

Nothing for me this week but I will say this, the Switch Eshop is quickly becoming like steam in terms of number of releases each week. almost 20 just today. There's more than 600 titles on the shop and the switch is barely over a year old. In comparison it took the 3ds around 5-6 years to get 1200 titles and we're already half way there. I'm getting very concerned about the wave of releases constantly hitting the eshop

Everytime I read that Agatha Knife game description, I feel like the website is pulling an April Fool's prank.......

Jotun: Valhalla Edition is right up my alley, Norse mythology, usually am into games dealing with the subject. I will be downloading this.

I've been both a lover & hater of the Switch E shop. Lots of subpar games to sift through but there are gems that make it worth it!

I suspect this site’s favorable Sky Rogue review is helping its performance in this poll. It has a slight lead in the early voting (80 total votes so far).

I’ve been enjoying other airplane/flight games on Switch lately, including Manticore, Wings of Fury DX, and Rogue Aces. I likely will get Sky Rogue as well, based on what I read in the review yesterday.

KORG Gadget immediately draws my attention. I've heard good things about their software on DS and the like, but with a nice big screen this could be great for making music on the go.

I met the developers of Saturday Morning RPG at an anime conference a few years ago. They sell used games in the Dealers Room every year. I might pick up Saturday Morning RPG since they were cool dudes.

aye caramba that's a lot of games

"Switch activities"

Is that new? I think it's funny if you post a vid of your Labo creation you win a Labo kit. There's a joke in there about a horse and a barn.

Games that caught my attention -

Jotun - b/c the description sounds like a game I'm currently playing on another system, axe and all.
Sparkle ZERO - b/c you can never have enough Spore eating games.
DragoDino - b/c dragons and dinosaurs
Hello Kitty Kruisers - b/c Hello Kitty

There's certainly a genre for everyone in there. Not sure of the quality, but surely every genre is covered.

I'm bummed. All I wanted was the Naruto trilogy, but apparently it's not getting a NA release. ;_;

So much crap to sift through every week now

Korg for me. I've always loved the electribe line (personally use ER-1 and EMX-1). I haven't checked yet, but does this include DDD-1 samples? Love me some 12-bit nastiness!

@Agramonte

Thank you! Don't have a Switch yet, so I've been able to play it patient with memory and wait for deals such as this. Sending you good vibes for the heads up.

Again too many games to reasonably follow.

@Agramonte some sale. I bought it for $49.99 on Amazon in November 2017.

Death Road to Canada is now May 15th according to the eshop.

@Crono1973 they wouldn't keep selling them if people weren't buying them. There's a huge market for these games, most obviously.

@Desa All three Naruto games and the trilogy pack are live in the NA shop. Come ‘n’ get ‘em.

I have a bunch of overpriced cardboard that I should do something with.

@DrJiggle @imgrowinglegs @Gorfvic20 @SmaMan

Heads up for those interested in KORG Gadget, you can export from Headphone jack/HDMI audio only. No MIDI, wav., .mp3, etc. :-/

https://support.korguser.net/hc/en-us/articles/360000676863-Can-I-export-songs-

I might still get it, but only when it goes on sale.

eShop: boring boring boring, overpriced, boring (when did the eShop get so boring and crammed with filler? Thursdays used to be so exciting). Was excited for the KORG, but it is essentially pointless (as an on the go thing) since, "When you want to use songs externally, please record the audio from either the headphone output in the body of the Nintendo Switch, or from HDMI audio output." Might as well just have my laptop with me.

DLC: Splatoon2 update once again saves the day for Nintendo.

@masterLEON That makes it almost completely worthless as "this fun on the go thing" if I have to RECORD through the HDMI output. This is like Mario Maker on 3DS without the ability to share levels. My phone or laptop is better for doing this on the go.

@james_squared donate it all to a cat - they will love you for it - best use of that junk

@burninmylight np! 😊... Well I got my Switch at launch and I now just got this microSD card today for it - over a year later.

I have 1 gig left on the Switch - so depending on where most of your games come from you can probably not sweat it if you have one at the beginning or not

@dumedum hmm, was not really looking for one back then. Yeah, Probably get a better deal over black Friday in Nov. But extra $5 not that bad.

How is Light Fall? Not too many reviews up yet, but the ones there seem to say "Great game, but too difficult and too short." Those are both pluses for me - I love difficult platformers like DKC and Super Meat Boy, and lately I am preferring shorter games that I can actually finish.

@Dang69 I'm really looking forward to working with the Labo. I think it's a great concept.

@masterLEON Good to know. I've got a good enough sound setup that I'd still be able to make use of it.

Gonna be hooked on splatoon trying to rank up, Naruto and Gal Gun over the weekend.

<- Eagerly awaiting the review of Saturday Morning RPG
<- Will probably buy it anyways

@justin233
Thank you! I wasn't able to check the eshop today, so I was going by the list provided here. I appreciate it.

Is it possible for you guys to actually tell us at least what genre a games is? Best example I can give this week is Sparkle ZERO: I don't care about whale facts. I'd like to know what kind of game it is. I can read bad game descriptions on the eShop. At least there I (usually) have a video I can watch to get an idea of what the game is.

I guess Naruto isnt important enough for Nintendo Life to report..

Got Naruto Trilogy for 40 bucks. Im quite happy with the price!

The Xenoblade and Spla2oon updates are both pretty exciting. And after reading the review, I am gonna pick up Regalia.

I remember seeing "Ghost Pilots" a few times on "Nick Arcade."

@Kiyata Why not, it's not like they take up shelf space.

@GumbyX84 @MattFox Pretty sure they just copy and paste the list Nintendo releases. If it isn’t in the list, it isn’t posted.

@Desa No problem! Happy to help out.

@Dang69 If someone happens to have a laptop with a 3.5mm input, maybe not on recent laptops but older ones, they could use a 3.5mm to 3.5mm cable to record. HDMI comes into play if they have a capture device, like an Elgato. And with Elgato it's even easier because by ticking a box in the options, the game capture software can automatically save a separate audio track along with the video recording. This'll likely be the way I end up recording.

But yeah, it's still an inconvenience to record if you're not already set up to do so.

@SmaMan Yup! As long as the sound's clean and there's no artifacts, we should be good to go.

I pre-ordered Agatha Knife with the discount and picked up Goetia for that great initial sale price. Light Fall, Jotun, Saturday Morning RPG, and Glaive are all going on my wishlist. I'm trying to be patient and wait for sales, since I already have a huge backlog on the Switch.

@Fake-E-Lee Just bought it. It's good! Just running and jumping on your own boxes feels really good. Got to Act II already after only an hour, so it does seem pretty short.

Sheesh... there's a lot of games I'd play in this list. Some I'd be waiting for a review for, but here's my full "interested" list:

A Robot Named Fight (I usually don't do rogue-anything, but I'm getting a strong Metroid vibe from this one. )

Another Lost Phone: Laura’s Story (Backlog hasn't allowed me to get around to the first one yet, but both intrigue me... A price drop would be great )

Arcade Archives 10-Yard Fight (Holy hell I loved this game on NES and must own this)

Ghost Pilots (Getting a strong 1942 vibe and it doesn't look too over the top like some airplane games currently on Switch)

Glaive: Brick Breaker (Love Arkanoid style games but need a review. Hey NL, how about a review for Energy Invasion too?...)
Goetia (Point & Click, moody, mysterious, haunting... all the things I want in an adventure game)

Late Shift (This and The Bunker are intriguing buys for me as I don't usually do FMV games, but gonna wait for a sale)

Saturday Morning RPG (As a kid who grew up in the golden age of Saturday morning cartoons, it's my duty to play this. No guts no glory! )

@Fake-E-Lee Nice, it looks fun as hell. Thanks for advice

@Fake-E-Lee and @MeloMan Hey, publisher here! Super-pumped y'all are enjoying the game.

Finally some Hello Kitty love! Been waiting on this forever!

@james_squared great concepts and great fun aren't always the same thing. I extremely appreciate and respect LABO - incredible in what it does. But the software is so super shallow for the actual builds, that it's a bit insulting, no matter the age, and just kind of "there".

@masterLEON I look into elgato - thanks man. I do some simple music stuff (have a PA and mix for karaoke hosting - record vocals, mess around with a Roland JD-Xi-RD and VoiceLive Touch) and was hoping this would be a fun thing to play around with to start expanding my wheelhouse a little.

@Fake-E-Lee Yeah, probably not happening, lol. And now you've made me add another to my wishlist!

@fake-e-lee That's what I'm working on! We've got some cool stuff in the works. If you wanna chat with the guy that made A Robot Named Fight, there's a Discord you can join with the rest of the community: discord.gg/6Bs84xW. He always likes to hear from fans!

Gotta say: as a producer, I avoided KORG's lackluster outing. IT DOES NOT feature touch support, nor ANY kind of export system (partly due to Nintendo, partly to KORG).

I DID, however, pick up A Robot Named Fight. As a major Metroid fan, I can safely recommend it. Solid 7.5/10. It draws almost all inspiration from Super Metroid. Quite enjoyable.

So I picked up Lode Runner Legacy instead, after enjoying the heck out of the demo. It's pretty great.
