Another Neo Geo game has been dated for Switch. Over on the European eShop, Over Top is listed for April 27. The Neo Geo titles tend to launch worldwide, so North America and Japan should be getting it on the same day.

Here’s an overview of Over Top:

Over Top is a racing game released by SNK in 1996. Players will participate in breathtaking races through urban areas, mountainous regions, and snowy roads. The courses also feature weather variants to add more variety to the game. In addition to the various vehicles with different performance factors which players can use, they can also enjoy the thrill of drifting their way through corners to clear courses.

The ACA NeoGeo series has faithfully reproduced many classic NeoGeo masterpieces. Players can change various game settings such as game difficulty and also reproduce the atmosphere of arcade display settings of that time. Players can also compete against each other from all over the world with their high scores.

Please enjoy the masterpiece that built a generation for video games.

ACA NeoGeo Over Top will cost $7.99 / €6.99 / £6.29.

Switch has all sorts of different ways of playing. With Hamster’s Arcade Archives series, it looks like you can actually have a setup in which the screen is displayed vertically. This was discovered with the latest Neo Geo release, Neo Turf Masters, but it applies to the other titles as well.

The screen option admittedly doesn’t have a tremendous amount of use here. In the future though, it’ll be interesting to see if any other Switch games are made with a vertical format in mind.
