Nintendo eShop Update: Carmen Sandiego, Justice Ninja Casey, Glover

It’s not the most high-profile game getting released on the Switch this week, but Justice Ninja Casey may be the most interesting one.

See, Justice Ninja Casey originally came Super Nintendo back in 1994 — but only in Japan. Ratalaika suddenly decided the time was ripe for the game to finally be released in the rest of the world, so we’re getting a Switch release tomorrow, a mere 30+ years later. It’ll be interesting to see how the game holds up, but if you’re a fan of old games you’ll want to check it out, if only for curiosity’s sake.

There are a few other games arriving on the Switch this week, including a re-release of Glover (speaking of games from the ’90s) and the return of Carmen Sandiego in her eponymous new game. Check out the full list below!

This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following content:

You can also step back into the past and explore the Hisui region on a quest to complete the region’s first Pokédex in the Pokémon Legends: Arceus game.
