The ACA NeoGeo Series Debuts on iOS and Android with Metal Slug 5, Samurai Shodown IV, and Alpha Mission II Out Now and More to Come

The Hamster-produced excellent ACA NeoGeo series of releases on Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox platforms has been bringing many classics to modern platforms with a few conveniences for a while now. Today, SNK announced (via @gosokkyu) that the ACA NeoGeo series has made its mobile debut with three releases. Unlike some other retro releases that bring home console versions of games, this series aims to be faithful to the arcade versions of games. SNK also confirmed that more games will be added to the lineup in the futurw. The three titles out now are Samurai Shodown IV ($3.99), Alpha Mission II, and Metal Slug 5. All three are available without any in app purchases and hopefully Hamster and SNK can update some other releases to fit with the ACA NeoGeo lineup in terms of emulation and features.

Another thing to note, at least going by other platforms, is that the games in this series rarely go on sale and some have only been discounted a single time before remaining at full price for over a year. It remains to be seen how this series evolves on mobile. Right now, you can grab the games for $3.99 each. If you’d like to play them, you can buy Metal Slug 5 on the App Store for iOS here and Google Play for Android here, Samurai Shodown IV on the App Store for iOS here and Google Play for Android here, and Alpha Mission II on the App Store for iOS here and Google Play for Android here. Check out the official website here. SNK will also be adding more titles as revealed on the official site. Hopefully iOS and Android can eventually catch up with the vast library available on Nintendo Switch, PS4, and Xbox platforms in the future. I’ve been buying loads of the Hamster releases on Nintendo Switch and would love to grab some of them on iOS as well.

‘Franz’ is a Strange Mashup of Texting-Based Adventure and “Angry Tamagotchi” from the Makers of ‘Pathologic’ and ‘Knock-Knock’

That is quite a headline, but, Franz is the kind of gaming experience that can’t be easily summarized. It’s an ambitious and unique new project from developer Ice-Pick Lodge, who made their name with the open-world horror FPS Pathologic and have also dabbled in mobile with their truly weird survival horror title Knock-Knock Game , which we reviewed back in 2014 . Ice-Pick has grown to become a fan-favorite developer due to their somewhat twisted and unconventional take on developing and storytelling, and “twisted and unconventional" are two extremely apt descriptors for their upcoming title Franz . What even is Franz ? I guess if you had to summarize, Ice-Pick describes it as “a hybrid between an SMS novel and an angry version of tamagotchi" but it also seems like the type of thing that doesn’t really have anything else before it to compare to. You can watch a very cryptic teaser trailer just below followed by a fascinating behind-the-scenes video where the game’s art dire...

Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for July 31st, 2019. I managed to spend half of my birthday sick in bed, but I got a sweet birthday cake from my wife and some nice Spider-Man loot, so it’s hard to be upset. In today’s article, we’ve got a review of the recent shoot-em-up release Pawarumi , summaries of today’s trio of new releases, some tasty news bits, and a bunch of cool sales to dig into. Let’s roll into it! News ‘Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’ Now Features the Hero from ‘Dragon Quest’ I actually got a prediction right for once! Praise me! Anyway, you probably already saw this, but during yesterday’s Super Smash Bros. Ultimate video presentation about the latest DLC character, players were treated to the news that the Hero from Dragon Quest would be dropping later that day. That means he’s available right now! There are other Dragon Quest -related items that have been added to the game alongside him, like new Mii Fighter costumes and such. If you...

SwitchArcade Round-Up: ‘BOXBOY! + BOXGIRL!’, ‘Moero Chronicle Hyper’, and Other New Releases, Ridiculous Amounts of Sales, and More

Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for Monday, April 29th. You may have noticed that there was no SwitchArcade on Friday. I had a bit of a medical emergency and it just wasn’t possible to put anything together. Sorry! But I’m okay now, and as such I’ve decided to catch up on everything I missed. No news or reviews today, but watch for those to make their returns tomorrow. Let’s catch up! New Releases Panty Party ($14.99) I still can’t believe this is a real game that exists and is available on the Nintendo eShop. But here we are. Take control of one of a large variety of flying panties and use your special abilities to attack the enemy panties. That sentence describes a real video game. Given that the game is rated E10+, you probably shouldn’t expect anything too provocative here. Rather, it’s a sort of absurdity that you play just to see stupid-looking situations. And you can even play four-player split-screen, provided you can find three friends that w...
