The virtual stockers who help run the 3DS eShop are getting the week off, but Nintendo still plans to add 17 new titles to the Switch eShop over the next seven days.
This week’s biggest new release is definitely Kirby Star Allies, which will be available to download beginning tomorrow. Kirby Star Allies is a side-scrolling platformer that includes a drop-in/drop-out multiplayer option and new Friend Abilities to use against enemies. Also available to download on Friday is Tesla Vs Lovecraft, an overhead shooter where players will have to fight H.P. Lovecraft’s nightmarish monsters in a mech suit piloted by Nikola Tesla.
Horrible monstrosities are also at the center of Koei Tecmo’s Attack On Titan 2, and Switch owners will be able to do battle against the Titans for the first time on Tuesday, March 20. WayForward will also bring the third game in the Shantae series, Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse, to the Switch on the same day.
Finally, if you’re looking to download something today, the truck-to-truck jumping of Clustertruck is now available through the Switch eShop, as is a re-release of Bad Dudes, a classic beat ’em up from the 1980s.
You can learn more about all of this week’s additions to the Nintendo eShop after the break.
