Last week, 10 Second Run Returns came to the North American Switch eShop without any notice. It hadn’t been mentioned in the Nintendo Download report or anywhere else recently.
This has now happened for the second week in a row. Despite missing from the Nintendo Download press release, The Men of Yoshiwara: Kikuya appeared on the North American eShop. The visual novel can be purchased for $19.99.
Here’s some additional information and a trailer:
Some new sales went live on the North American Switch and 3DS eShops this week. On Switch, Perception has been discounted for the first time, and there are some other decent offers as well. For 3DS specifically we’re highlighting the fact that all of the Ace Attorney games are on sale, including Apollo Justice.
Here’s the full roundup:
Celeste is off to a very good start on Switch. The game has sold the most on Nintendo’s console, according to creator Matt Thorson.
Thorson told Destructoid in a new interview:
“The Switch version of Celeste has sold the most, and that’s what we were expecting. We feel like Celeste and the Switch are a perfect fit for each other. We are glad we launched on all consoles though, and we really appreciate the support we’ve seen across the board.”
Thorson hasn’t divulged any specific sales figures for Celeste. But as we’ve seen, it’s topping the Switch eShop charts.

There’s not a lot to dislike about Super One More Jump. On its surface it looks like a fairly generic Super Meat Boy derivative, but beyond its stout square character, the ease in which you can very quickly die in its short challenge levels – and the instant reset when you do – Super One More Jump shares more with auto-runner mobile games than the intricate fine-tuned play that a Meat Boy demands. It wasn’t a surprise to learn that this is a souped-up version of Premo Games’ One More Jump. As a result it’s mechanically undercooked to be a slightly awkward fit for a dedicated console with a full array of buttons and sticks.
Did you miss the Grand Hero Battle with Valter in Fire Emblem Heroes originally? If so, you’ll be happy to hear that it’s back. Grand Hero Valter: Dark Moonstone is waiting again in Special Maps. Even players who cleared this previously can take on limited-time special quests to earn rewards.
In other news, Nintendo has shared some celebratory illustrations various illustrators to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Fire Emblem Heroes. You can view them below.

Nekopara was announced for Switch at the Taipei Game Show last weekend. Neko Works has since shared the news officially, and provided a couple of extra tidbits of information.
When Nekopara lands on Switch, some new elements will be included. The team is preparing a new theme song, more CG, and new episodes. Also teased are other extras that we’ll be hearing about later.
Nekopara will release in Japan in Q3 2018.
