Super Mario Party, Disgaea 1 Complete, Mark of the Ninja: Remastered, more coming to Nintendo eShop this week
It’s party time for Switch owners as the consolemaker will add Super Mario Party to the Nintendo eShop this week. Featuring the returning of Board Game Mode, as well an online minigame mode known as Mariothon, Super Mario Party will be available to download beginning October 5.
Also set to launch this week for the Switch are a pair of remastered re-releases. NIS America will celebrate the 15th anniversary of their flagship strategy RPG by bringing Disgaea 1 Complete to the Switch on Tuesday, October 9. And Klei Entertainment will bring Mark of the Ninja: Remastered, an enhanced and updated version of their side-scrolling stealth game, to the Nintendo eShop on the same date.
Finally this week, though Telltale Games remains embroiled in a “majority studio closure,” the developer managed to complete Batman: The Enemy Within for release on the Switch.
You can learn more about the rest of this week’s additions to the Nintendo eShop (including Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams, The King of Fighters 2001, The Midnight Sanctuary, and more) after the break. (more…)

XBLA Today: Mark of the Ninja
A special Friday update to the Xbox Live Arcade brings with it the Klei Entertainment-developed Mark of the Ninja. This stealth platformer will set you back 1200 Microsoft Points ($15), unless the ninja has already stolen the money from your pocket…
A ninja is powerful yet fragile. Quick but deliberate. Mark of the Ninja is a stealth platformer that puts you in control of a Ninja who’s clan is in danger of extinction. Observe your enemies from the darkness, manipulate them with simple yet versatile tools, and experience what it is to be a Ninja. From the award-winning studio that brought you Shank, Mark of the Ninja is a game about finesse, manipulation, and sacrifice.
