Re: Games Acquired 2021
Someone make me stop buying random Switch eShop games. Seriously, I need help...
Anyway, here’s what I picked up today! There’s a short story behind each one.
#Breakforcist Battle - Despite the name, this is a delightfully designed, well-reviewed multi-player breakout game. A great value at $1.99.
The Legend of the Blue Warrior - This is a very, very, VERY thinly disguised remake of Konami’s MSX classic Knightmare released by a developer that makes homebrew MSX games.
Ninja Striker - The sequel to the really, really great (but sadly, delisted) 3DS mini-metroidvania Ninja Smasher. I loved the first game, and this one, according to reviews, is also really good.
Foxyland - This is the Switch port of a Genesis/Mega Drive homebrew game.
Foxyland 2 - The sequel to Foxyland. Not a homebrew Genesis/Mega Drive game, but just as cheap as Foxyland; so, why not?
Toree 3D - A well-reviewed throwback 3D platformer you can, apparently, beat in about an hour an only costs $0.99!

Awesome pick-ups, Syndicate! I'm a big fan of all these games. Had a blast playing some Virtual-On earlier this year, but I wasn't able to take out the last boss. Lol.

Not familiar with most of these games, but Ninja Striker and Ninja Smasher sound awesome. I gotta check those out.

Forgot to post one so these were taken a week or so apart. The cart for Saturn is a Pseudo cart. I want to play some English translations.
