The main trial this week has my wallet on the stand.
The big game in terms of attention this week is Square Enix's only relevant RPG remake this month in Trials of Mana, obviously. Anime World Report is thriving however, as Naruto Shippuden UNS4 and Code: Realize ~Future Blessings~ come out, as well as two visual novel imports from Japan in the Yumeutsutsu series - one of which is the most expensive basic game I think we've had in this column on Switch? And I've got Little Busters on the old wishlist as well.
The other dominant theme this week is the number 4. Aside from the fourth Shippuden game, we get coding app SmileBasic 4 and Picross S4 (plus a sale on the first 3... it's 20% off, but baby steps especially since it carries over save data to 4). Throw in ITTA and Sunless Sea, and I could use another fat tax return right about now.
Japan has their last big week for a while as the combination of COVID closures and the impending Golden Week means they need to run it out now.
