The week is wrapping up, and that means new titles are landing on the Nintendo Switch eShop. Leading the charge is the highly anticipated Suikoden I&II Remaster, accompanied by some festivities for MAR10 Day. Let’s dive into what this week has in store.
This week’s headline release sees the classic RPGs Suikoden I&II making a grand entrance. Originally launched by Konami in 1995, these cult favorites somehow bypassed Nintendo consoles until now. Nintendo Switch players can finally experience the magic with remastered editions that boast HD graphics and enhancements. This is a golden opportunity for newcomers to jump into the legendary saga.
It’s worth noting this week also marks the approach of Mario Day. March 10th, or MAR10, is the perfect excuse to celebrate everything Mario. In the spirit of the occasion, Nintendo is rolling out some generous discounts. You’ll find games like Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Super Mario RPG at 30% off, and that’s a rare deal for first-party games. If your collection lacks any Mario or even Toad or Luigi adventures, now’s an opportune moment to snag them. Don’t forget, My Nintendo Points are on offer through the end of March too.
Music lovers who follow Nintendo’s soundtracks will be thrilled to hear that The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is joining Nintendo’s music-streaming lineup. Be sure to enjoy this classic SNES soundtrack and tune in to hear our thoughts on the next episode of the Pure Nintendo Podcast.
