Two More Games Have Been Added to the Nintendo Switch eShop
If you are the proud owner of the latest console to come out of Nintendo, you’ve likely been enjoying the newest Zelda and Mario Kart offerings, as well as a number of other games that are slowly making their way to the system. A little over a month ago, players saw the re-release of Over Top, and the ports of Kamiko and Puyo Puyo Tetris. Now that June has already begun, it’s time for some new titles to hit the Nintendo Switch eShop.
The first game that has been made available is Shantae: Half-Genie Hero, WayForward’s latest entry into their platforming series. While this title was released in December 2016 for PC, PlayStation 4, Vita, Xbox One, and Wii U, this marks the first time it is being made available on the Switch. “When a mysterious crime wave sweeps Sequin Land, it’s up to Half-Genie Hero Shantae to save the day!” This version will contain platform-specific content as well as a hardcore mode for those who like a challenge. It is currently available for $19.99 on the Nintendo Switch eShop.
Much like Over Top, Shock Troopers 2nd Squad is another ACA Neo Geo re-release. The military-style action game was originally released in 1998, but it is now making its return on the Nintendo Switch. “Four mercenaries have risen up to thwart the ambitions of a massive corporation. In addition to a main attack, weapon, and jump abilities, vehicles have also been added to the gameplay, which together with branching paths give the player the ultimate freedom in choosing how they will take on stages.” Shock Troopers 2nd Squad is currently available for $7.99.
