Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for July 12th, 2024. It’s the end of another week, and we’re not exactly going out with a bang. Three new games today, all starting with the letter D by pure chance. Some new Nintendo Switch Online retro games that no one would have called before they hit. And the lovely, lovely sales we all enjoy blowing money on. It’s a quiet way to finish things out this Friday, but that’s more than fine. Let’s get to the weekend!
News
‘Starfy’ Arrives to Nintendo Switch Online’s Game Boy Advance App
Another unexpected drop of games for the Nintendo Switch Online retro apps, this time for the Expansion Pack’s Game Boy Advance library. What makes this one unusual is that it consists of three games that up until now have not been released outside of Japan. You might remember a Nintendo DS release called The Legendary Starfy. Well, that wasn’t the first game in its series, but rather the fifth. We can now play the first three Starfy games, albeit without a single word translated from the original releases, on Nintendo Switch Online. The fourth one is a Nintendo DS game, so… you’ll have to wait on that. These aren’t the most story-heavy affairs, but I will admit it is somewhat odd to see them just released as-is. Have fun exploring them!
Select New Releases
Deathchron ($4.99)
Some nice pixel art in this one, I’ll say that much. Anyway, side-scrolling action-platformer. Run, jump, shoot. I wish it played as good as it looks, but it lives up the five-dollar platformer energy it’s giving off. It’s really rough around the edges, but you can have some fun with it.
DROS ($24.99)
It’s Red.Deer, so as usual wait for the sale to bring it down to the intended sticker price. It probably will have kicked in by the time you’re reading this. That aside, this is a pretty enjoyable puzzle/adventure game. You control two characters, each with their own abilities, and play through forty levels with traps, puzzles, and enemies. New gimmicks are sprinkled in as you go to keep things feeling fresh.
Disaster Band ($9.99)
A silly little rhythm game for up to four players via online multiplayer. You don’t have to play according to the music, though you can if you want. You have the freedom to improvise as you see fit, creating your own cacophony since the audio is actually matching what you’re doing. Look, I don’t know if this is good, but it might be a decent laugh if you’re in need of one.
Sales
(North American eShop, US Prices)
If you want to shoot zombies, you’re in luck today. Rebellion’s Zombie Army games have never been cheaper on Switch, so get them if you want them. You also can’t go wrong with the puzzle games from Draknek & Friends, including things like A Monster’s Expedition and Sokobond. I will always recommend the Alwa’s games, and I will do that again here. Over in the outbox, the latest ININ sale is wrapping up. That includes some great Taito games and more, so give that a look.

That’s all for today and this week, friends. We’ll be back next week with more new games, more reviews, more sales, and perhaps some news where it occurs with sufficient fervor. I finally finished that big project I was spending my weekends on, so I’m going to have a slightly lazier one this time. I mean, I still have a lot of reviews to do, but that’s just the usual stuff. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend, and as always, thanks for reading!
