This week’s North American Nintendo Downloads are as follows:

This month’s issue of EDGE is starting to reach subscribers. The magazine provides the latest reviews, and also hands out some rewards – including the best games of 2017.

First, below are this month’s scores:

Attu Games, an indie studio that released the puzzle-platformer Toby: The Secret Mine on Wii U last year, has announced a new project in the works for Switch.

Feudal Alloy features a mix of Metroidvania and RPG gameplay. You’ll play as Attu, a fishbowl-powered robot. The game features an action-combat system, branching dialogue, hand-drawn art, and more.

Feudal Alloy is planned for Q3 2018. We have more details and a trailer below.

Ed Mcmillen has shared an update on The Legend of Bum-bo, a spinoff of sorts for The Binding of Isaac with puzzle-type RPG mechanics. Mcmillen posted on Twitter sometime within the first half of 2018. More news and a teaser trailer will follow soon.


Mcmillen previously indicated that The Legend of Bum-bo is a high candidate for Switch. Considering that The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ and The End Is Nigh are on the console, it seems like a safe bet at this point.
