Over on the Japanese eShop, next week’s NeoGeo game for Switch is listed. Hamster will be publishing Gururin on April 12 worldwide.

Gururin first appeared on NeoGeo in 1994. Here’s a brief overview from The International Arcade Museum:

Three people in color-coordinated clothing descend from the top. You must align any three of the same color vertically or horizontally. During the game you do not rotate the three falling people, you rotate the puzzle itself.

ACA NeoGeo Gururin will cost $7.99 / €6.99 / £6.29.

2064: Read Only Memories Integral was originally planned for release this week – specifically April 5. Yet with tomorrow fast approaching, we haven’t heard much about the game as of late. It’s no surprise then that, unfortunately, it’s being hit with a delay.

MidBoss says on Twitter that the team encountered some issues during the final certification process of 2064: Read Only Memories Integral. While it will take “a few weeks to fix these final items”, the delay shouldn’t be too long. A new release date will be announced soon.

The Spectrum Retreat

Dan Smith won a ​BAFTA Young Game Designer award back in 2016 for his prototype Spectrum. Now Smith is teaming up with Ripstone to fully develop the game as The Spectrum Retreat, which is coming to Switch.

The Spectrum Retreat is a first-person puzzle action title. You’ll be “exploring the pristine and uncanny hotel, The Penrose, solving its ingenious color-coded puzzles and discovering the reasons behind their seemingly never-ending stay.”
