Nintendo Downloads – January 2, 2025 – News
Here’s to a happy new year – and may she be a damn sight better than the old one.
Things we missed last week: A localization of the puzzle game Platform 4, but the big movers were in Japan with the release of the latest from Onion Games (Moon) with Stray Children and a seemingly-exclusive Arcade Archives release of Super Dimension Fortress Macross. Take a wild guess why that is.
See, if more weeks were like this I wouldn’t lose entire weekends to doing the weekly articles. Five games in North America, nine in Europe of which five have already came out in North America, and Japan gets ONE that came out in North America a month+ ago. (John gave it an 8.5, at least.) So with that, best of luck if you’re traveling on amateur hour tomorrow night, happy New Year, and hopefully I will check the eShop Tuesday after my IRL job and it STAYS this quiet.
