Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for February 15th, 2023. I’m looking at the plate in front of me, and it occurs to me that I should have saved one or two of those reviews just in case today ended up a little slow. And slow it is, friends. Slow it is. There isn’t much going on news-wise, there are only a couple of new releases to talk about, and the lists of sales aren’t terribly big. Well, that’s how it goes sometimes. I could try to stretch things out, but let’s just call it a quick one for today and take solace in the fact that tomorrow should be a big fellow. Let’s get to what we’ve got!
New Releases
Pocket Witch ($4.99)
Well, you can probably sort out what kind of game this is just from looking at that screenshot. Another precision platformer with tiny sprites and lots of spikes. Run, jump, air dash, grab keys, and get to the exits. Not a whole lot more to talk about with this one. I suppose it’s leaning on the spooky theme to help it stand out. Will it work? Well, it’s something.
Dream of Tiny Snow ($11.99)
This is a trilogy of short visual novels. They’re all little science fiction stories with a romantic theme, and they don’t seem like the kind of stories that have happy endings. No real choices to make here as near as I can tell, so you’re really just along for the ride of the narrative.
Sales
(North American eShop, US Prices)
Alright, the main thing on the menu today is a new low price for the rarely on sale Portal Companion Collection. A lot of game for a little price, and they’re rather nicely-done ports. Bustafellows is having a wild sale, and the usual EA games are discounted as well. Over in the outbox, a lot of sales are wrapping up. Nothing I’m going to jump up and down about, but it’s probably worth scanning through.
