Nintendo Switch Adds Three New Games Today

A fourth, Has-Been Heroes, also launches on Tuesday.

129 Comments

There may not be any major new Switch games arriving this week, but the eShop has added three more titles in the US.

The first of these is another entry in the ACA NeoGeo series, 1996 golf game Neo Turf Masters ($8), which features two-player support. Next up is New Frontier Days: Founding Pioneers ($10), a single-player town-building sim. And finally is a port of Othello ($5), a version of the classic game Reversi. Two-player support is offered with a single Joy-Con, or the game can be played used the touchscreen itself. All three games are ports or updated versions of existing games for Switch.

No Caption Provided

You can grab all three of these games right now on the eShop in the US. You can see screenshots of them all in the gallery above.

Coming up next week, on March 28, is an original Switch game, Has-Been Heroes. This is a sort of strategy/action game hybrid that was showcased during the big Switch event in January. It'll be available digitally and physically for $20.

Last week saw the release of five new games, including The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+.

I'm also really really excited for Othello. Just got to play it on the Switch since there are no other platforms to play it on! If Reggie asked me what I was most excited for, I'd tell him Othello. I'm buying the Switch to play Othello! Certainly a system seller!

I'm sure lots of customers were just begging for this Neo Geo golf game... I'm really sure that's the only reason they bought a Switch. To play some 20ish year old arcade game. Come on Nintendo!!! You should know your F'ing customer base by now!!!

@mbrogz3000: it's day two now. My PS4 pro is feeling abandoned, and the switch games I've purchased are distant memories. I've hardly been able to sleep or eat because of the excitement of playing the neo geo golf game. Some would say that it looks boring as all hell, yet others would say exactly the same thing. Looking at calendar for Mario switch releases, sigh...even GameCube titles on digital library would have been cooler, but I def think they should have gone with n64 and above feature titles to fill in for the missing launch switch titles for the early adopters.

Well. Dont take your Switch to the airport thinking youre going to play in flight. They are getting banned from flights. Another reason to not buy this garbage. WHY didnt Nintendo just make a 4k console with a regular controller? It wouldve been great. And the Zelda hype is almost over, so what game or games will Nintendo have to keep gamers interested? This kind of trash isnt going to succeed. All they have to do is make Metroid, Actraiser 3, Goldeneye, and a new Mario Kart and things would be better.

@rarerichz: not a troll. Just tired of crap gimmicks people seem to fall for. But if that makes you happy, then go for it. Im all in for the good of gaming itself. But most people defending the Switch are just justifying all that money they spent on an overpriced, underpowered gimmick. I will say this tho, if Nintendo will announce some REAL games at E3, it might just save the Switch from failing.

@gaminsincepong: yeah a Mario kart 8 "deluxe" is on the way, and I'm sure metroid will be one too. The rep said all major titles will be addressed with the switch. I hope there's another street fighter than the revised graphics SFII, that'd really put a feature title into the switch's library. Idk if they could pull off street fighter VI, but a street fighter that's new gen characters would be great.

@straightcur: I imagine the places theyre not allowed are airports in Middle Eastern countries. Do they even have Nintendo Switches there? And I didnt read any headlines. I was told from another person.

@gaminsincepong: Yeah but two of those specific locations are Doha and Dubai so if you are flying via Emirates or Qatar you're going to go through Dubai or Doha respectively.

More garbage. This stuff comes on PSN and Steam all the time and nobody writes about it. Just shows how sad the switch game situation actually is.

@alan_wake1: yeah when u go into the PS4 library the lineup is great, but Nintendo is more -fun- based so they won't have the same top end stuff like PC/PS4. I really hope they round out that digital library w more than neo geo, and get some freaking cases for the switch handheld. A screen protector and little vinyl wrap thing does little to ease the mind when it's going to be like $200+ to replace that thing if it breaks. The Wii U had a console separate from the controller, but for the switch all of the eggs are in one basket. That's why I've never used it other than a regular console. I have the screen protector, the case wrap thing, and a travel storage case, but it doesn't seem like that'd do much if you're holding it and it drops.

Despite the fact that most release aren't significant ones, I love the pace at which they're getting released!

It gives me hope that the Nintendo Store will be more interesting than it ever was...

Now let's hope that like MS's and Sony's store, Nintendo's will be offering rebates / weekly deals eventually!

(Even tho I sort of hope they don't so I don't end up spending too much...)

@silv3rst0rm: yeah just in this age of pc high end gaming, rom emulators, mobile, etc they should have had a better selection. They could have put gba titles, n64, GameCube, snes, etc that were reworked to be the same graphics but an modified version of the game into the library to compete. Even if they had simply had the titles for the consoles available I bet it would have been a hit. The zeldas would have all been complementary to the new switch Zelda.

@alan_wake1: hey they already have that $50 1-2 switch game that should have come free w the console and focuses on milking a cow, counting the number of balls in a box, stopping a samurai sword with your bare hands, shaking a soda bottle, etc. That game is so going to be included for free in a bundle I bet by Christmas

@Flyin3lvl: I'm trying hard to remember did they make articles like this when XBLA or PSN got some random junk every week. There was that option "auto-download demos" and I soon realized HDD is full of crap I had no idea it was there

@PrpleTrtleBuBum: Xbox live gold definitely gets stuff like this a LOT...it's like junk junk junk Asassins Creed, junk junk junk Far Cry, junk junk junk Evolve Ultimate edition. That's why I switched over to PS4, bc the free titles were just meh ones sometimes, a lot of ? Ones, and a couple feature titles. The backwards compatibility is even worse, that's almost all ??? ones and rarely any good 360 games.

@twilight2tron: Wrong. I check what free games Gold and PS+ get regularly and PS rarely gets any AAA major releases. Usually indie games. Gold consistently gives you at least 2 AAA games EVERY month. Bioshock Infinite, Witcher 2, Sunset Overdrive, Bad Company 2, Black Flag, Mafia 2, Just Cause 2, Tomb Raider, Metros, Crysis 3, Gears of Wars, Borderlands, Ryse next month, Force Unleashed for 360 a few weeks ago, plus every 360 game you can play on your One. Their backwards compatibility is great, heaps better than Sony and Nintendo. Fallout 3, RDR, Borderlands, Assassin's Creed 2, Gears of Wars 3, Dark Souls, Fable 2, yeah, real lack of good 360 games...

@NeonicTrash: yeah but almost all of the good ones on the 360 or xb1 other than feature ones most people already have. I wasn't saying PS4/psn is any better, I just switched bc xb1 didn't have street fighter V, Abe's odyssey and no handheld. Forza horizon 3 is the best racing game though, I love that game.

I don't see Red Dead Redemption, Borderlands 1, 2 and Pre-Sequel, Assassin's Creed 1,2,Brotherhood,Revelations,3,Black Flag, and Rogue. Also, i don't see Mass Effect 1, 2, and 3. These games would all sell a ton and would cost next to nothing to port. Make it happen, publishers and developers. Fortunes await and consumer happiness is the grandest of wealth

@soulfulDAGGER: you mean infamous smash hit titles would have sold better than obscure neo geo games? It would be amazing if the titles u mentioned were brought to the switch. Street fighter IV and V too

@soulfulDAGGER: I'm not quite sure Nintendo wants to be branded again as that "we have ports of old-gen games" option as happened with Wii U. While the competitors got GTA5, Phantom Pain and Arkham Knight, Wii U got Arkham City.

Sure City was better game than Knight but still

@PrpleTrtleBuBum: Well, they didn't want to be seen as a porting machine for a home console, but the Switch is some home/portable hybrid, so the effect wouldn't be too bad.

Plus GTAV, MGSV GZ/TPP, and other ports could be good on a "handheld". Perhaps with some ridiculous Nintendo exclusive extras. Snake riding Yoshi? Yoshi helmet? Inflatable Yoshi to distract foes? Yoshi Egg grenades in GTAV!?

@Triton: The Nintendo Switch is more powerful than an Xbox 360, which had a lot of outstanding games. Tbh, i'm surprised Microsoft hasn't released a portable/handheld 360

@soulfulDAGGER: yeah that's what I'd love to see, a response to the ps vita...but even the vita was ended to make way for vr. There's rumor though that project Scorpio could have a vr option. I'd still rather have the handheld.

I'm really looking for other games to justify purchasing a Switch. As of right now, Breath of the Wild is the only one that's worth a shit and hasn't already been on another platform the last 5+ years.

Nintendo was smart releasing BotW with the Switch...but if these lackluster (that's being nice) titles aren't replaced with another big name title soon, the Switch is going to lose traction really fast.

And here I was hoping that Nintendo would bring in an influx of JRPGs that the market seems to be missing these days. I know they're in the tunnel, but god damn if they aren't too far down it as to lose any interest in them entirely.
