It’s that time of week! The eShop has been updated with loads of new content to peruse. This week’s highlight is Bayonetta Origins, telling the story of how the witch Cereza became the infamous Bayonetta. The game features dual roles, allowing you to play as both witch and demon. There’s even a demo to check out.

Have a Nice Death is another highlight of the week. In this title, you play the role of Death himself,  exploring a hand-drawn 2D world as the CEO of Death Incorporated. In a twist of fate, Death must stop his own employees from taking too many souls.

Meanwhile, Nintendo continues to celebrate all things Mario with a range of sales on games featuring our moustachioed plumber. From Odyssey to Bowser’s Fury, there’s bound to be something on your list. Now is the time to pick up a bargain.
