Towa and Alchemic Cutie were both mail deliveries, all the rest are ones I wheeled and dealed for at the flea market. I am fascinated by Alchemic Cutie, because it seems to be a really well made, in-depth hybrid between Stardew Valley and Slime Rancher, but there's almost no info or community about it online. Glad I have a physical copy, I guess?

And yes, I have entered my Sonic Era.

Thankfully I have

Late arrival but finally I have hand on Montabi, great game to me so far. RiverCity Girl series, I have heard about this from my friend and decided to grab some. Add on Viractal for free shipping but definitely try it out soon

Has anyone had anything shipped and/or received since play-asia website is down? I see on the page that warehouse and shipping is still happening, just want to be sure as I have several pre-orders coming from them soon.

I just ordered both the amiibos fo Oot which came out to $66.97 USD, but when fraud texted me about it it only showed $47.85 USD and my bank account only shows $47.85, is there a reson it's not showing the full $66.97?

I have noticed that the game was set to be released as an import october 22nd But videogamesplus didn't make their usual post about receiving the stock and shipping the orders. They have for other imports releasing on similar dates though.

Did they say anything about the orders coming in late or something?

The second release of the arcade beast that is Snow Bros. My younger kid loves arcade classics like this. Anything boss heavy he eats up. Had to complete the series on switch and pick up Snow Bros 2. The sequel where the bosses get a ton more weirder and the chaos gets upped a little more.

STORY

The story of Snow Bros. 2 Special embraces classic, campy 90s arcade tropes. The core plot revolves around the four hero protagonists embarking on a quest across multiple worlds to rescue a kidnapped princess from the Great Demon King Atchich.

Following the events of the original game—where the twin snowmen Nick and Tom successfully saved Snow Land—peace is shattered once again. A bizarre, jelly-bean-like princess is snatched away by the forces of evil. However, Tom is missing this time around. To save her, Nick teams up with three "New Elves," each representing a different elemental weather power.

The story handles the rescue through a running gag: as the heroes complete each world, the princess is comedically passed along from one sub-boss henchman to the next. The brief cutscenes put her in classic, exaggerated cliffhanger scenarios, such as being tied to railroad tracks, keeping the narrative tone lighthearted and humorous.

GAMEPLAY

The "special switch" primarily refers to two distinct features designed to give players control over their gameplay experience: the Art/Version Switch and the Game Mode/Version Switch.

The remake addresses a long-standing division between fans of the original 1994 arcade release regarding character portraits.

The "Special" naming convention signifies that this release acts as a complete package holding two entirely separate versions of the game.

The Original Arcade Mode: A direct emulation of the classic 1994 arcade title (Snow Bros. 2: With New Elves) featuring original pixel art, 4-player local co-op, and original stage layouts.

The Special Remake Mode: A completely revamped modern version featuring redrawn HD-like cartoon graphics, rearranged music, and updated mechanics like the ability to drop down through floors by pressing Down + Jump.

While the original 1994 arcade version concluded after chasing the original bosses across 6 worlds, the Switch's Special Remake Mode expands the narrative.

The campaign's length is effectively doubled, introducing a brand-new secret world where the true final confrontation takes place. Players must navigate revamped, multi-phase boss fights to defeat the ultimate threat, King Atchich.

By playing the new Monster Challenge mode, you can play through the stages from the perspective of the enemy monsters. Completing the game with different characters unlocks unique, collectible ending artwork.

CONSENSUS SCORE

60/100 🫩 (Critic Score)

?/100 🤷‍♂️ (User Score) (Niche to have proper User Review)

67/100 🤔 (My Score)

The addition of the "Monster Challenge" mode lets you play as the enemy monsters, and some completely break the traditional platforming rules by flying .

While the primary heroes (Nick, Bobby, Roy, and Richard) are strictly bound by standard gravity and platforming layouts, unlocking specific monster characters—such as the helicopter enemies—allows you to fly freely across the stages.

The characters fundamentally change how you attack. For example, Richard uses mini-cyclones that intentionally climb upward rather than cascading down platforms, forcing a total reversal of traditional Snow Bros. strategy.

To achieve full completion and unlock all of the game's secret ending artwork, you must successfully beat the campaign using every single one of the 35 playable characters.

Is there anyone in PH that specifically make inserts for Switch cartridge cases?

Got the Ace Attorney Trilogy in Japanese and Fire Emblem Engage in Korean. I probably have the best chance with Engage since it already has an existing print in English anyway but I can't say the same about Ace Attorney.

If there aren't any individuals, are there any good printing companies that can get insert prints done pretty close?

Thanks!

It is so difficult to get a physical copy of Oblivion on Switch 2 at msrp. And the people buying it up aren't even fans that play it. It's just bots and scalpers. Wth man. This world is filled with greed.
