What’s happening on the Nintendo Switch eShop? This week’s highlights are pretty spectacular, from the remastered version of Epic Mickey to the storybook outing of The Plucky Squire.
Disney Epic Mickey: Rebrushed is the updated version of the 2010 Wii title. It sees Mickey traverse various worlds full of surprises as he uses a unique paint ability to find objects and fix the world. We’re working on a review for this one, so stay tuned.
Meanwhile, The Plucky Squire is a brand-new outing that has its own fairytale story. It features a literal storybook with a main character who finds himself able to traverse the book world and the real world. We went over the trailer in last week’s Pure Nintendo Podcast, and we’re working on a review for this one, too.
There’s a long list of new games to check out, so let’s get to it. Let us know what’s on your playlist this week.
