What’s hitting the Nintendo Switch eShop this week? Let’s dive in with the latest HD remaster of a beloved RPG classic: SaGa Frontier 2. Making its debut on a Nintendo console, this 1999 gem offers a fascinating look at characters experiencing pivotal moments from different perspectives.
Next up, we have Rift of the Necrodancer, a standout addition to this rhythm-driven franchise. Players embark on a new rhythmic journey with Cadence, facing monstrous foes by matching the beats of catchy, original electronic tunes.
