Following the presentation, Nintendo added a listing for Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn to its website. There was some concern that the port would be exclusive to New 3DS as that platform was actually listed on the official page. However, that won’t be the case after all.

Nintendo has updated the Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn listing again, which now has a general “Nintendo 3DS” platform listed. The original “New Nintendo 3DS” part has been modified, so fans can rest easy knowing that Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn will work on all 3DS systems.

Flying Tiger Entertainment bringing Heavy Burger to Switch next week

Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 0 comments

Over the past few months, Flying Tiger Entertainment has been bringing Data East arcade games to Switch. Interestingly, for its next release, the studio appears to be doing something different.

The North American eShop is showing the new title “Heavy Burger”. Rather than porting over another one of Data East’s releases, this appears to be something that’s somewhat original. Not much is known at present as the eShop listing only has the following line: “Team battle mashup across a Retro Arcade of iconic Data East games for a super serving of Heavy Burger!”

Johnny Turbo’s Arcade: Heavy Burger is due out on October 4 for $14.99. We have some screenshots below.
