Nintendo Download: Sauntering Sundries

A slow week for new games, with no spotlighted titles, nonetheless does serve up the usual deep collection of smaller releases.

Well we’ll just make our own spotlight then

It’s a pretty rare event when there are zero spotlighted games in the Nintendo Download. Even if they’re niche or downright unknowns, there’s always something highlighted in the press release from the Big N. Again though, not this week, as Nintendo skipped the category altogether.

As mentioned above though, there are plenty of smaller releases coming, and some of those might just be worth mentioning. First up, there’s a whole lot of Jackbox stuff landing, along with a retroish shooter called Shadowforge Chronicles that might be kind of interesting, and the wrestling management-sim Pro Wrestler Story.

Scroll on down and take a peek, you never know what might grab you.
