REDMOND, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--This week’s Nintendo Download includes the following content:

  • Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch
    • PAC-MAN 99 – A Nintendo Switch Online membership grants you entry to the battle royale game PAC-MAN 99. After four decades of iconic gaming memories, PAC-MAN is back in the maze, ready to hunt down those ever-elusive ghosts. But this time, you’ll be competing against 98 fellow players to emerge as the last PAC-MAN standing. Featuring eight different selectable strategies to deploy on the fly, and the tantalizing promise of mounting a huge comeback when you eat a Ghost Train, PAC-MAN 99 delivers a blast from the past with modern thrills.
    • Cozy Grove Welcome to Cozy Grove, a life-sim game about camping on a haunted, ever-changing island. As a Spirit Scout, you’ll wander the island’s forest each day, finding new hidden secrets and helping soothe the local ghosts.

With a little time and a lot of crafting, you’ll bring color and joy back to Cozy Grove.
    • The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV The long-awaited finale to the epic Trails of Cold Steel RPG saga arrives on Nintendo Switch! The continent of Zemuria is dragged into conflict as the Erebonian Empire mobilizes the full force of its military. The heroes of Class VII old and new must unite to end the conflict before it consumes the continent. In a world ablaze with war, heroes must unite. The Legend of Heroes: Trails of Cold Steel IV will be available April 9.
    • DON’T GIVE UP: A Cynical Tale – The fate of the city is at stake in this sarcastic and darkly comedic RPG. Face down your inner demons amid a bustling city, a dimension-hopping storyline and entertaining tactical battles against bullies who will stop at nothing to take your pizza. Do you have what it takes to find the hero deep within?
    • Say No! More – In a world where everyone sticks to the status quo of saying “YES,” create your own custom character and take on the role of an intern on a mission to change the world with the positive power of “NO!” With this new power, nothing will get in your way as you shout “NO!” at any absurd requests fired your way. This hilarious adventure game has tender depth wrapped up in a fun, late-90s video game style, complete with chunky, colorful visuals, comical animations and jazzy music. Say No! More will be available April 9.

Also new this week in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch:

In addition to video games available at retail stores, Nintendo also offers a variety of content that people can download directly to their systems. Nintendo adds new games weekly to Nintendo eShop, which offers a variety of options for the Nintendo Switch console, the Wii U console and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems.

Nintendo Switch Online is a paid membership service that allows members to team up or face off online in compatible Nintendo Switch games, such as Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Luigi’s Mansion 3, Pokémon Sword and Pokémon Shield.

Nintendo eShop is a cash-based service that features a wide variety of content, including new and classic games, applications and demos. Users can add money to their account balances by using a credit card or purchasing a Nintendo eShop Card at a retail store and entering the code from the card. All funds from one card must be loaded in Nintendo eShop on Nintendo Switch, Wii U or the Nintendo 3DS family of systems, but can be used in any Nintendo eShop if the systems are linked to a single Nintendo Account.

Customers in the U.S. and Canada ages 18 and older can also link a PayPal account to their Nintendo Account to purchase digital games and content for the Nintendo Switch system both on-device and from the Nintendo website. Once the accounts are linked, users may also use PayPal as a payment option when buying digital content for the Wii U or Nintendo 3DS family systems from the Nintendo website.

My Nintendo members can earn Gold Points on eligible digital purchases. Already have Gold Points? Redeem them toward your next digital purchase of Nintendo Switch games and DLC on Nintendo eShop, or on discount rewards for select Nintendo 3DS and Wii U software.

Remember that the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo 3DS family of systems feature parental controls that let adults manage some of the content their children can access. Nintendo 3DS players who register a Nintendo Network ID gain access to free-to-start games and free game demos from Nintendo eShop, and also get the latest news and information direct from Nintendo.
