There's one giant... ok, I guess we can't say Rambi in the room because he's not in it, but I guess Funky Kong is. The first big release in what threatened to be a month of remakes is Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. We've got a couple of reviews from Neal and Daan if you're wondering about how Retro's best game ever transitioned to the Switch.

In smaller fare, there's a second platformer coming over from Wii U in Nihilumbra, while the original fare includes something called Cast of the Seven Godsends and at least in the US, a mahjongg game. Your Archives releases this week include horse racing (well timed for the Derby on Saturday) in Stakes Winner, and a game fans of black box NES titles will recognize in 10 Yard Fight.

It's mostly the same in Europe, but Japan gets a couple of continuations in the third J. B. Harold title (sadly, no Japanese support) and the third game focused on interaction with, um, adult stars for 500 yen.
