Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for March 30th, 2022. In today’s article, we’ve got a bit of news to go over before heading into the new releases of the day. There are only a few games hitting the eShop today, but at least a couple of them look pretty interesting. After that, we’re going to check out the usual lists of new sales and expiring discounts. Let’s head into battle!
News
The Sequel to ‘Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild’ is Delayed
A little news came in yesterday just after I went home for the evening, as is wont to happen with Nintendo news. I wish it was happy news, but at the very least I can say it isn’t surprising news. Up until now, the sequel to The Legend of Zelda: Breath of Wild was penciled in for a vague 2022 release, with most of us assuming it would come pretty late in the year if at all. Well, the development team needs a touch more time with it, so the release date has been moved to Spring of 2023. Hey, take your time, folks. We’ve got plenty to play this year anyway.
New Releases
Richy’s Nightmares ($4.99)
Well, someone clearly had a good time with Limbo. This is a puzzle platformer played in a world of silhouettes. Maybe this has something special up its sleeve, but I’m not seeing it. Five bucks isn’t a whole lot to gamble if you’re feeling more charitable than I am, at least.
Agent Intercept ($19.99)
PikPok’s auto-driving Apple Arcade riff on the classic Spy Hunter makes its way to the Nintendo Switch with this release. You play as the driver of a super-cool spy car that can transform from a stylish roadster to a high-powered speedboat as the situation calls for it. You’ll have to engage in chases, battle bosses, and do various other spy things to complete each level. It’s a fun game with an appealing presentation, but I’m once again forced to gesture in the direction of Apple Arcade if you don’t mind playing on your mobile device. It’s nice to have it here for those who want a more permanent solution, at least.
Take Off – The Flight Simulator ($14.99)
Alas, this game carries no endorsement whatsoever from Bob and Doug McKenzie. Too bad, eh? No, it’s just another kick at the whole affordable flight simulator can. It’s a port of a rather money-hungry mobile game, letting you get your hands on all twenty airplanes, twenty-one airports, and fifty missions for one flat price. The visuals have gotten some improvements over the mobile version, but don’t go expecting Microsoft Flight Simulator here or anything, okay? I think it’s actually fairly decent for what it is.
Sales
(North American eShop, US Prices)
When I started writing this today, the list of new sales was somewhat dire. After I came back from getting my vaccine shot to finish this, some new sales from Koei Tecmo had popped up. Samurai Warriors 5 and Blue Reflection Second Light are both good games that are fairly recent as Koei Tecmo stuff goes. If you enjoyed the recent Atelier Sophie 2, you may want to get caught up on the games leading up to it by grabbing the Mysterious Trilogy pack. The outbox has a few neat things in it, including A Hat in Time, Touhou Spell Bubble, Groove Coaster, and more. Have a scan of both lists and make sure you’ve grabbed what you’re after.

That’s all for today, friends. So far I seem to be having minimal effects from my vaccine booster. Let’s hope that holds for tomorrow, because it is Thursday and there are many games to look at. Games like Glitchhikers: The Spaces Between, Red Wings: American Aces, and Arcade Archives Wonder Momo will be hitting the eShop and we will hopefully have summaries of all of them. We’ll also have whatever sales and big news come in during the next twenty-four hours, just for funsies. I hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday, and as always, thanks for reading!
