‘Garden Simulator’, ‘Sakura Gamer’, Plus Today’s Other New Releases and Sales – TouchArcade

Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for May 10th, 2023. Another relatively quiet day, but I suppose that’s how it’s going to be until the storm that is The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom passes. We have a little news to look at first, then we’ll check out the new releases that hit the eShop today. Nothing too exciting on that front, but I’ve seen worse. We wrap things up with the sales as usual, with a small but steady selection of games receiving discounts while a whole ton wrap their latest sales up. Let’s get to work!

News

‘Gimmick! Special Edition’ Comes to Switch on July 6th

Fans of Nintendo’s 8-bit console will know the name Sunsoft for such hits as Batman, Blaster Master, and Gremlins 2: The New Batch. The publisher fell off hard after the 16-bit generation, but its IPs and games see revivals now and then. A couple of its NES games somehow failed to see release in North America back in the day despite being localized for the European market, and there are some real fine examples among them. One such game is Gimmick!, an impressive display of physics-based platforming that somehow only released outside of Japan in Scandanavian countries. Last year Bitwave Games announced it would be bringing out an enhanced rerelease of the game called Gimmick! Special Edition, and we now know when: July 6th. It’s looking to be the ultimate release of the game, and this one will be available globally.

New Releases

Garden Simulator ($26.99)

‘Garden Simulator’, ‘Sakura Gamer’, Plus Today’s Other New Releases and Sales – TouchArcade

One of those games where the title does 95% of the heavy lifting for me, leaving me with precious little to write about in this summary. As you would expect, you’re growing and maintaining a garden here. Plant the seeds, watch them grow, decorate the garden, keep it clean, sell your harvests, buy some upgrades and new plants, repeat until you’re satisfied. You can lob garden gnomes around, which is why the price is a little high.

Sakura Gamer ($9.99)

Sometimes dialog choices in games make me laugh a bit. Look at that screenshot. There is a right answer there, and there is a goblin answer. Anyway, this one is a visual novel about a young woman whose dream was to develop a game. Unfortunately, like most people she abandoned her dream for the sake of mundane reality. One day, her childhood friend introduces her to someone that will drag that dream back from the dead, whether our heroine likes it or not. And in the end, there may be smooching. Depends on your choices, really.

Cabin Escape: Alice’s Story ($0.99)

A short and sweet room escape adventure from the makers of the Forever Lost series, set at a highly reasonable price. You could certainly pay more and get less on the Switch in this genre.

Sales

(North American eShop, US Prices)

Nothing spectacularly unusual in today’s new sales, but there are some good games in there like Demon Turf, Blossom Tales II, SUPERHOT, and Death Road to Canada to consider. The outbox is quite a bit bigger and has more in it than I can reasonably call things out from. Just take a careful look through the lists and I’m sure you’ll be fine.

Still, we’ll have all of the summaries like we always do, plus whatever sales and big news items roll in over the next day. I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday, and as always, thanks for reading!
