Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for August 26th, 2024! Today's edition is a bit lighter than usual; I'm juggling other projects, so there are no reviews. We'll cover some new releases and the week's sales – at least one new release is quite interesting, and the sales are pretty decent too. Reviews will hopefully be back tomorrow. Let's dive in!
Select New Releases
Fragrant Story and Papaya’s Path ($7.99)
Fragrant Story, a late Nintendo 3DS release, has a bit of a checkered past. Initially released as a very short game due to tight deadlines, it was later updated to its intended, much longer form (over ten hours). This version includes those updates, offering a solid tactical RPG experience for eight bucks if you enjoy the genre. Don't let the initial short playtime reports fool you!
Quack Jump ($3.99)
A straightforward platformer with 40 levels and some fun new mechanics sprinkled in. At four dollars, it provides decent entertainment.
Underground Station ($7.90)
An idle game where you work in a dungeon to pay off debts. It might not be visually stunning, but it’s a welcome change of pace.
Sales
(North American eShop, US Prices)
Let's check those eShop inboxes! There's another Limited Run Games sale, great if you've missed any of their unique titles. A selection of TROOOZE games are discounted (only a few listed here), along with some Team 17 titles. Note that the sale on the Front Mission remakes is ending soon; these are less frequently discounted than other Forever Entertainment games, so consider adding them to your collection if interested.
