Nintendo Releases – October 31, 2024 – Updates

It’s almost frightening how punctual this list is this week, considering its usual unpredictable schedule.

Last week might have flown under the radar a bit, but it made quite the splash with a record-breaking 79 new releases in North America and 78 in Europe.

This week is already off to a bustling start in North America with 52 new entries. The highlight has to be "Farmagia," XSEED/Marvelous’s latest foray into the world of farming simulations. If tending crops isn’t your style, you can immerse yourself in the eerie atmospheres of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series or indulge in some nostalgia with the "Shadows of the Damned" remaster. There’s even the classic "Clock Tower" making a return for those who want a touch of old-school horror.

Fans of scrolling shooters will find plenty to keep them entertained too, with a couple of notable Saturn-native games and a new "Raiden" title, although intriguingly, without the Taito imprint.
