As you can see, the games are a combination of Nintendo’s best first and second party releases, as well as quite a few games that may not be as popular with gamers, but will definitely find its audience with families and younger gamers.
One notable game part of this sale is Disney Dreamlight Valley – Ultimate Edition. As we had previously reported, Disney and Gameloft dropped initial plans to make Disney Dreamlight Valley a free-to-play game, and have decided to make it a full retail release. Disney Dreamlight Valley isn’t actually releasing on retail until December 5, 2023. Clearly, this will be a pre-order for the Ultimate Edition.
Also notable is EA Sports FC 24, which was published all the way back in September. This is the first new football game from EA for the Nintendo Switch that is a genuine new release. While FIFA 18 to 23 where published on the Switch, fans had opined that all of these games had been basically FIFA 18 with new rosters. EA Sports FC 24 also received favorable reviews on the Nintendo Switch. If there was ever a time for Switch owners to get back into association football video games, this is their big chance.
