The Gauntlet (tm) begins with a game that sucks incredibly hard, and we love it for that.

Notable releases last week: Rolling Thunder was the Archives release.

There's two big games that will also be in the brick-'n'-mortar this week as Kirby and the Forgotten Land (demo available) will be heralded (in NA) by the long-awaited Rune Factory 5 as the quarter winds down surprisingly light. We'll have a review soon-ish for Kraken Academy, and in retro news the Valis collection from a few months ago is being split into separate games at roughly the same cost.

The foreign list is typically adventure/VN heavy, ~~but we also get an early look at this week's Archives release in mid-80s Namco brawler Wonder Momo~~. Also, this week features a prominent conferring of game developers, so be on the lookout for shadowdrops.
