Nintendo Updates – March 13, 2025 – Latest Releases

Last week slipped by without me catching the Vs Mystery Tower sneaking into the Archives—the arcade take on the classic Famicom Mystery Tower. But let’s fast forward to today, a milestone for me: it’s been a solid ten years since moving into my current apartment and also marking my anniversary writing for NWR, thanks to an offer from Neal. A fitting way to celebrate would be a re-release of Chrono Trigger, don’t you think? Unfortunately, it’s not on the cards. We might catch a preload of Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition this Thursday, or maybe some early access to MLB 2025 on Friday. While Toronto Blue Jays fans are disappointed that the excitement of playing like the 1927 Yankees didn’t make the cut, they’ll just have to wait.

This week doesn’t bring much to stir my interest. There’s a European launch for the adventure game On Your Tail that’s on my radar, though who knows if it will hit our shores. A smattering of new comic apps released in Japan could be enticing, and perhaps Fate: Reawakened will capture the hearts of those still yearning for Silksong.

North America Highlights

Here’s the lineup hitting the shelves:

• "Is It Wrong To Pick Up Girls In A Dungeon? Familia Myth: Full Land of Water and Light" is up at $49.99 (US) and $64.99 (CA).
