Nintendo Download: Let’s-a Golf!

Mario Golf: Super Rush arrives on the Switch this week, bringing Nintendo’s cartoony courses back for another outing. Also: Zombies Ate My Neighbors.

I mean the game

Just to clarify, I mean the game Zombies Ate My Neighbors is out this week, not that zombies actually ate my neighbors. That’d be a serious problem for me if that happened… and them. As well.

But yes, the 16bit classic is back, and out on the Switch this week, along with Ghoul Patrol. They’re not alone either, as there are a few pretty cool additions to Nintendo’s eShop library this week.

Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater 1+2 comes to the Switch as well, bringing the excellent series rebirth from last year. Add to that Destroy All Humans!, Disgaea 6, Legend of Mana, and of course Mario Golf: Super Rush, and you have a pretty great little week.

Here’s the full list of what’s on the way:
