Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes – 23rd April
This one became the most funded Kickstarter video game of 2020… If that doesn’t grab your attention, nothing will:

Endless Ocean: Luminous – 2nd May
The first Endless Ocean game since 2009’s Endless Ocean 2: Adventures of the Deep on Wii! Let’s hope it’s been worth the wait:
Take a deep breath and plunge into the Veiled Sea, an unexplored region with discoveries that change with each dive. Encounter and learn about over 500 species of marine life – some of which are presumed extinct, or even mythical!
Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door – 23rd May
The big one! GameCube classic Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door makes a comeback on Switch on 23rd May. If you didn’t play this back in the day, you absolutely must play it now:
After Princess Peach asks for his help on a treasure hunt, Mario heads to the town of Rogueport. But when he arrives, Peach is nowhere to be seen! Upon learning about the legend of the Crystal Stars, Mario sets out to find these mythical treasures and hopefully track down Peach along the way
Of course, Mario isn’t the only one hoping to find the Crystal Stars – and it’s not just Bowser who’s looking to cause trouble this time either! Can our hero find these ancient artifacts, open the Thousand-Year Door and maybe even save the world?
