Nintendo Downloads – October 19, 2023 – News

It’s Sonic’s 30th anniversary, and the blue blur is so, SO screwed.

Things we missed last week: Early Konami puzzle (???) game Loco-Motion came to the platform under its Japanese name Guttang Gottong.

Ordinarily this week would be on a down note, which would be due to a game that glorifies drunk driving already being out following up with a game focused on Sonic’s ****ty friends tomorrow. (Apparently Sonic Superstars is, as the kids say, “mid”, but look for our review later to confirm.) But the week ends with something not seen on the Switch in nearly five years and in general in more than a decade; an artisinal, hand-crafted 2D Mario game in Super Mario Bros. Wonder. Prepare the shrooms, it’s going to be a bumpy ride for what is probably the biggest deal on Switch this year. (Somewhere, this is getting sent back to 1993 and someone at Babbage’s is having their brain exploded by the concept of Sonic and Mario games launching three days apart on a Nintendo console.)

Also driving into stores are the second Hot Wheels Unleashed racer and Aksys dipping into the murder mystery space with Inescapable – a rare VN from them that doesn’t have five suitors and an Idea Factory logo.

Smaller items this week include another Jackbox Party Pack – holy crap, there’s TEN of them now – alongside the seasonable Hellboy Web of Wyrd, a multiplayer Illfonic special based on Ghostbusters, and Gargoyles Remastered which will surely live up to the standards of the era of which it came and not, I dunno, the mouse of today who needs to be broken up posthaste. Also, we have a real stretch of the term “collection” being used for a pair of old Boy and His Blob games… but the price is right, at least.
