Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
Update: Although not officially confirmed, Unbox: Newbie’s Adventure might be seeing a physical release on Switch. A boxart image has surfaced on 365Games:
Original: Merge Games and Prospect Games announced today that Unbox: Newbie’s Adventure will be heading to Switch in Q4.
Below is an overview of the game:
“Assuming the guise of Newbie, a cardboard box, players must bounce and roll their way through glorious 3D worlds filled with scenic vistas, mountains, islands and the like. Newbie’s lot in life is to prove his worth as a sentient, self-delivering package and in doing so save the Global Postal Service from bankruptcy.
As a living cardboard box, Newbie can explore epic worlds accepting missions and challenges as he goes. Along the way he’ll meet new friends, discover a plethora of collectables and uncover oodles of super-secrets. Of course, there are unfriendly inhabitants out there too, the Wild Cards and their boss are out to ruin the GPS. Only by completing challenges and collecting reward stamps will Newbie be able to square up to menacing world Bosses!
In addition to a single-player adventure mode, Unbox: Newbie’s Adventure also offers classic split-screen action. Up to four friends can gather together and challenge each other in madcap speed races and last-man-standing battles. Endless cardboard carnage awaits as players create their own customisable Tournaments, playing on dedicated multiplayer maps.”
We’ve included a trailer below that offers a good look at Unbox: Newbie’s Adventure.

Nintendo’s site now lists GoNNER for release on June 29
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 2 Comments
GoNNER was initially supposed to come to Switch on June 8. Unfortunately, the game ended up seeing a last-minute delay, so it didn’t meet its original date.
Nintendo’s website now lists GoNNER for June 29. We’ll wait until we have a confirmation, but hopefully this means a release is planned before the end of this month.
