Hello fellow gamers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for August 26th, 2024! Today's update is a bit lighter than usual. I'm juggling some other projects, so reviews are on hold for today. We'll cover some new releases and the usual sales updates – and at least one of the new games looks promising! The sales are pretty decent, too. Hopefully, I'll have those reviews for you tomorrow. Let's dive in!
New Game Releases
Fragrant Story and Papaya’s Path ($7.99)
Let's clear up the mystery surrounding Fragrant Story, a late-stage Nintendo 3DS title. Initial releases were surprisingly short, lasting only about twenty minutes. The reason? A tight deadline forced the release of an unfinished version. However, it has since received substantial updates, transforming it into a much more complete experience lasting over ten hours. This updated version is available now, offering excellent value for eight dollars if you enjoy tactical RPGs.
Quack Jump ($3.99)
A straightforward platformer, but a solid one nonetheless. It keeps things engaging across its 40 levels by introducing new mechanics as you progress. At four dollars, it’s a fun little diversion.
Underground Station ($7.90)
This is an idle game where you work in a dungeon to pay off your debts. It might not be visually stunning, but it's a welcome change of pace.
Sales
(North American eShop, US Prices)
Let's check out the sales. Limited Run Games has another sale, which is great news if you've missed any of their unique titles. Many of TROOOZE's games are discounted (only a few listed here), along with some Team 17 titles. Note that the recent sale on the Front Mission remakes is ending soon. These are rarely discounted, so grab them if you're interested!
