NIS America made not one, but two Switch announcements at Anime Expo today. Along with The Longest Five Minutes, the publisher is also putting Penny-Punching Princess on Nintendo’s console.

Penny-Punching Princess will launch in North America on March 20. The European release will follow on March 23.

In the game, you’ll play as a princess without her title in a world obsessed with money. You’ll be able to bribe enemies that will fight on your side, activate traps in battle, and more. Additional details and a trailer are included in the overview below.

NIS America is further pledging its support for Switch. During a panel at Anime Expo, the publisher announced that The Longest Five Minutes is coming to the system early next year in both North America and Europe.

The Longest Five Minutes originally released in Japan last year as a PlayStation Vita title. Nippon Ichi worked with Syupro-DX on the adventure RPG that “will take you inside the mind of a hero during his final encounter with an epic and evil Overlord.”

More information about The Longest Five Minutes is below, along with a trailer.

Culdcept Revolt isn’t the only NIS America title being delayed this week. Touhou Kobuto V: Burst Battle has also been pushed back “to accommodate the production and manufacturing of the game.”

In North America, Touhou Kobuto V: Burst Battle will be available on October 10. The European version has a new date of October 13. This essentially amounts to a month delay as Touhou Kobuto V was originally planned for September 8 in North America and September 8 in Europe.
