Suikoden I & II Arrive in This Week’s eShop Highlights

As the week winds down, it’s time once again to feast our eyes on the fresh batch of games hitting the Nintendo Switch eShop. This week’s standout? The much-anticipated Suikoden I&II Remaster. Plus, we can’t forget there’s a MAR10 Day bash going on. Let’s dive in!

Taking center stage this week is the newly remastered combo, Suikoden I&II. Originally unleashed by Konami in 1995, this iconic RPG somehow missed Nintendo’s consoles back then. Thankfully, that oversight has been corrected, and both the original classic and its 1998 sequel have now landed on the Switch. The Suikoden I&II Remaster boasts beautifully enhanced HD graphics and additional support features, making it an ideal opportunity for newcomers to dive into this epic adventure.

We’d be doing a disservice by not talking about Mario Day, right around the corner. You read that correctly—March 10, or MAR10, if you will, is a day dedicated to all things Mario. And, of course, Nintendo’s joining in on the festivities with some serious discounts on beloved Mario games. Titles like Super Mario Bros. Wonder and Super Mario RPG are seeing price cuts up to 30%, which doesn’t happen too often with Nintendo’s own games. If your Mario collection has any gaps involving Mario, Toad, or Luigi, this is the moment to act. Plus, My Nintendo Points are up for grabs till month’s end.

For the music aficionados keeping track of Nintendo tunes, this week’s spotlight features the much-loved soundtrack from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past hitting the Nintendo music-streaming app. Make sure to have a listen. We’ll be chatting about it more on our next Pure Nintendo Podcast episode.

There’s a pretty lengthy list of new games to consider too, and you definitely want to check them out. So, which ones are you thinking of playing over the weekend?
