Hiya mild readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Spherical-Up for June twenty fifth, 2024. Right now I used to be extremely busy and thus solely began writing this text late within the day. Which means I didn’t have time for any critiques, however we do have a couple of actually good new releases to have a look at, a bit of stories, and naturally the same old lists of latest and expiring gross sales to go over. I actually need to atone for these critiques quickly. I’m being a naughty fellow, taking time for household and such. Properly, let’s get to the good things!
Information
‘Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration’ Expands Later This 12 months
Common readers will know that I beloved Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration to items. It has a lot to supply in comparison with most retro sport collections, largely due to the concentrate on telling the story across the video games at first. The sport acquired some video games added through a free replace a short time again, and at the moment Atari stated extra can be coming. Properly, we now know what they meant: Atari 50: The Anniversary Celebration Expanded Version can be launching later this 12 months on October twenty fifth. It provides two extra timelines full of data and over a dozen new movies, plus a whopping thirty-nine video games.
This consists of Berzerk and a number of M Community video games.

‘Tetris 99’ Has Ninety-9 Occasions, and ‘F-Zero 99’ Is One in all Them
Okay, it’s extra like forty-one occasions. However I wished to make use of that headline, so right here we’re. The newest Maximus Cup occasion for Tetris 99 has been introduced, and it’s getting a bit meta in right here as a result of the theme this time is F-Zero 99. The occasion kicks off on June twenty eighth and runs by means of the tip of the weekend on July 1st. The principles are the same old.

Tremendous Monkey Ball Banana Rumble ($49.99)
I really feel like Tremendous Monkey Ball wasn’t deliberately an important get together sport; it simply sort of occurred. Each Monkey Ball sport since has tried to some extent or one other to recreate the magic, and I don’t know that they’ve discovered a lot success in that. Properly, right here’s a brand new one that actually leans into that finish of issues, with assist for 4 gamers regionally and sixteen gamers on-line. There’s an enormous multiplayer focus this time, and I’ll let you know the way that pans out after I put up my evaluate.
Past Good & Evil twentieth Anniversary Version ($19.99)
Wow, this got here out sooner than I used to be anticipating. Anyway, Ubisoft is reminding everybody that it hasn’t utterly forgotten Past Good & Evil. Sequel? What? It may possibly’t hear you. However right here is the unique sport, spiffed up and with some new high quality of life options to convey it extra in keeping with fashionable tastes. You recognize, issues like auto-saving. For those who haven’t performed this sport earlier than, it’s sort of much like a Zelda-style affair, however there’s a bit extra to it than that. Simply be warned that its story was very a lot written with a sequel in thoughts, and we haven’t seen a lot occurring there for a protracted whereas. The sport itself is value a romp, little question.
Frogun Encore ($12.99)
Renata and Jake return on this follow-up to the low-poly platformer from a pair years again. This standalone journey helps sofa co-op for as much as two gamers, and encompasses a bunch of latest levels to play by means of and loads of problem. There’s a selected taste to Frogun, and I do know some people couldn’t get into it. I don’t know that this sport will change their minds, however the individuals who did like the primary will certainly admire this one.
Gross sales
(North American eShop, US Costs)
A small however regular record in the present day, it appears. Nothing in there I really feel significantly robust about, so I’ll allow you to do your factor.

Try each lists fastidiously and see if something in there may be singing your tune, however do understand that the week is younger.
