New releases and eShop discounts (week 11)
Posted 12 Mar 2020 at 14:07 by Dennis Tummers
We are already in the eleventh week of 2020, and while we are not even a quarter in it has proven to be quite a stirring year so far. Luckily a weekly dose of fresh new content is coming to the Nintendo eShop.
NIS America is bundling Langrisser I & II, two classic tactical RPG's. Originally released on the SEGA Mega Drive, they have now been remastered for the Nintendo Switch (and other platforms). For fans of Fire Emblem.
DEAD OR SCHOOL brings a serious case of 2,5D hack-and-slash action. Fight off zombies in famous Tokyo locations, all brought to you by the small three-man team of Studio Nanafushi.
As always the full list of new games can be found on the bottom of this article, after the highlights for this week's new releases, pre-downloads and sales.
