Samus is coming in to land

Hey, Chris here with your Nintendo round-up for the week — it's issue #460 of Hanafuda Report (previously Switch Weekly). Hope you're well!

First up, thank you to the hundreds of you who entered the Tomb Raider competition last week, and congratulations to the winners: Neil, Patrice, Robin, and Steps — enjoy the game!

Alright, it's Prime time! Eight years on from that 'first look' trailer and the latest Samus adventure is nearly here. I geeked out with Max Wright from FlipScreen Games to talk all about the game ahead of release on Thursday — it was a fun wide-ranging chat about Beyond and what we're expecting. Oh, I've spotted some early reports that retailers may have broken the street date on Beyond, so get your spoiler guard up now.

Ok, so plenty of good stuff on the eShop next week, including Metroid of course, but there's also Octopath Traveler 0 and multiplayer romp Popucom (watch the trailer, it's cute). The list is below for you as ever, but a quick note — for the longest time, I've strived to bring you as comprehensive a list as possible of all games, however I think I'm done spending time, and giving a platform to slop and lazy mobile ports like this. I'm going to be a bit more selective in removing some of the low quality rubbish from what I share with you — let me know what you think?
