Nintendo eShop new releases (week 44)
Posted 29 Oct 2020 at 15:22 by Dennis Tummers
Yesterday Nintendo surprised us again with a new Direct Mini Partner Showcase, accompanied by a fair share of shadow drops. The first two No More Heroes games (originally launched on the Wii) can be enjoyed on the Nintendo Switch right away.
HAL Laboratory (the home of Kirby) has Part Time UFO out, a game that was previously released on mobile. And finally Control, the award-winning title is available on the Nintendo Switch as a cloud version, meaning you stream the complete game via wifi or wired ethernet.
But that's not all, as Pikmin 3 Deluxe marches onto the Switch tomorrow. With new controls, a series of QoL improvements and an Ultra-Spicy difficulty you can experience the third Pikmin adventure for the first time or again if you played it on the WiiU before.
As always the full list of new releases, demos and DLC can be found below after the highlights.
