Bit.Trip Runner

The Bit.Trip series started out way back in 2009 on WiiWare. Bit.Trip Beat was the first game, and was followed by an additional five titles that experimented with different genres. The original series is now just a few weeks away from releasing on Switch.

According to eShop listings, all six Bit.Trip games are launching for Switch in December. Bit.Trip Beat, Core, Void, Runner, Fate, and Flux will be distributed at the same time.

Here’s an overview of each game, along with a trailer originally shared for Wii:

Nintendo eShop

If you’ve been having trouble with the Switch eShop today, you can rest easy knowing that you’re not alone. For whatever reason, the store isn’t operating normally. You may be unable to connect to the eShop, navigate different pages, or even make purchases.

We happened to notice this a few hours ago, though there was no word from Nintendo itself. Now, however, the company’s maintenance page has updated, stating that it is “experiencing difficulties with our network services.”

Nintendo doesn’t provide any sort of estimate as to when the situation will be fully resolved. Hopefully it’ll all be taken care of soon enough.
