Between the dwindling stock of gold coins and my current snail’s pace in Xenoblade Chronicles X, my dealings with the eShop have become about as icy as a Wendy’s Frosty.
In case you missed it, last week brought us Senkyu, a Match 3 puzzle game, making a quiet debut in the Archives.
Here’s a quick reminder: today is your last chance to rack up My Nintendo Gold coins from purchases, so take advantage if you’re redeeming codes from stores like Humble or Best Buy; they hold their full value even during sales. However, if you’re looking for exciting games to spend those coins on this week, the pickings are slim. We’ve got a Doraemon-themed Picross game stealing the spotlight, a new entry in the Gal Guardians series published by PQube, and a remake of the 1995 PC adventure game "I Have No Mouth, And I Must Scream" courtesy of Nightdive. My sole memory of that one is struggling with a demo my dad got from a PC Gamer disc that stubbornly refused to run on our computer.
It’s the last full week of the fiscal quarter, and the release schedule is packed to the brim. In fact, I’ve only managed to squeeze in about ninety minutes of playtime on Xenoblade Chronicles X Definitive Edition since its launch. At this rate, I’ll wrap it up sometime around the heat death of the universe!
