Managed to find a physical NTSC version here, from 365Games, £29.99 though :( .

On paper I should be clamouring for a new Valkyria game, especially as it has a Mitsuda score!

But its apparently very meh.

Well, according to Google translate the literal 1:1 translation of the game title would be Absolutely Points Virgin: Danganronpa Another Episode, so... the localisation department at NIS America presumably...

At least 'Ultra Despair Girls' gives me a glimpse at the mindset of these girls, while still posing the question of whether they themselves are suffering ultra despair or whether they intend to spread it to others.

'Absolutely Points Virgin' only gives one clear detail, though it may partly explain the despair. Cheer up, girls. Plenty of time for all that.

Ooof, Golf Club 2? Didn't see that coming.

I really enjoyed the first one, but the (2) other people I know who got it, didn't like it at all. It had a brilliantly sarky Canadian caddy/commentator.

I'm glad they beat Everybody's Golf 2 to the punch, hoping they do well.

This is one of those instances where it's not just a weird translation; Ultra Despair Girls is pretty much what it means in Japanese. As to what that means uhmmm...

It would seem the Switch had a plethora of releases on the eshop last week that I missed.

Minecraft: Story Mode - Season 2 Episode 1: Hero in Residence - ALL OF THEM
Derelict Fleet - PC, PS4
Final Fantasy XII: The Zodiac Age - PS4
Energy Balance - PSVita

Trying to follow the Nintendo eShop is tricky, the different regions have wildly different release dates and they often don't say what's going up until the day before.

Upcoming release dates are listed on the Switch eShop itself. Some of them anyway.

Yes the above list is physical retail only.
Digital releases are harder to track down accurate info for.

Shadow Tactics is this week? Had my eye on that.

The early access version of Fable Fortune should drop this week as well at some point.

I played it on PC, is really fun if you're looking for something like commandos.
