Nintendo Downloads – September 5, 2024 – News
I trust there’ll be no objections to this week’s main event.
Things we missed last week: The combination Partner Showcase / Indie World dropped six games – though one of them was only shown in Japan – with Pizza Tower, Peglin, and Pico Park 2 in the Indie World portion and the Castlevania DominuS Collection, Goat Simulator 3, and “that ****ing Kairosoft Doraemon game” (tm RFN) in the Partner Showcase half. Also, Panic (Thank Goodness You’re Here!, Untitled Goose Game) published Nour: Play With Your Food, and the Archives had Finalizer – Super Transformation from Konami.
Capcom’s dropping consecutive weeks of hot collections with unreleased games, with this week’s big game being the Ace Attorney Investigations Collection bringing a good Edgeworth game west for the first time. (Allegedly.) There’s also a localization for the Good Feel-developed Goemon spiritual successor Bakeru, and if you prefer to work out to vocaloid music instead of, I dunno, Billie Eilish there’s a Hatsune Miku Fitness Boxing.
On the retro front – though I suppose that last trio would also apply – we have four items for the older crowd: Gimmick 2 (NA only, possibly apocryphal), the Sunsoft Is Back collection reviving three older unreleased Famicom games… Aero the Acro-bat 2, and a second version of the original Hydlide in the EggConsole line. Wow, that descended quickly.
