The scariest thing about this list is that it’s actually being posted on time this week.
Things we missed last week: Not much, but it was enough to bring new records in North America with 79 releases, and Europe right behind that with 78.
This week is already too busy for my liking, with a NA opening salvo of 52, but let’s see how it plays out. The big release de semaine is Farmagia, the latest attempt for XSEED/Marvelous to beat the farm sim allegations, though there are a few options for the shootin’ if you’re not down with the country life in one of a trio of S.T.A.L.K.E.R. games or a remaster of Shadows of the Damned, or you could remaster something even older with a remake of the original Clock Tower.
The scrolling shooters are also well represented this week of the Silver Shamrock with a couple of Saturn-native shooters and a new Raiden game that Taito’s name doesn’t seem to be attached to?
