There’s a new Spike Chunsoft sale running on the Switch eShop, and the Danganronpa games are at their lowest prices ever. Each title can be purchased for 70 percent off. Of course, a bunch of other games are a part of the sale as well.

Here’s the full rundown:

Detective Pikachu Returns Pokemon

Have you been curious as to how the team behind Detective Pikachu Returns decided which Pokemon to include? Director Yasunori Yanagisaw recently shared insight during an interview with ComicBook.

Many Pokemon will appear in Detective Pikachu Returns, but some will factor into the gameplay itself. For example, Growlithe lets players follow scents, Darmanitan can smash rocks, and Luxray is able to peer through walls. But many additional Pokemon will appear in the environments players can explore.

Cyber Citizen Shockman 2 A New Menace gameplay

We have gameplay from Cyber Citizen Shockman 2: A New Menace following its Switch debut this week. This one was originally released on the TurboGrafx-16 / PC Engine.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder pre-order bonus

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is expected to be one of Nintendo’s biggest Switch games of 2023, and we’re putting together a post to keep track of all pre-order details including bonus information. If retailers are planning any offers, we should be hearing about that closer to the official release later in the year.

If we’re strictly talking about the brand new side-scrolling games, the Super Mario Bros. series has been missing since New Super Mario Bros. U on Wii U – unless you count the Luigi U DLC or Switch port. It’s been described as an “evolution.” The hook this time around are Wonder Flowers, which mix things up by changing certain things like having pipes come alive. Also new is the Elephant Mario power-up and the inclusion of Daisy as a playable character.

ESDigital and Lofty Sky Entertainment prepared a final launch trailer for Shuyan Saga. The graphic novel adventure landed on consoles this week, including Switch.
