The Australian Nintendo Switch eShop has revealed that Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse is coming to the Nintendo Switch. The game is set to be released on March 20th and its download size is 478MB. Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse is also compatible with the Nintendo Switch Pro Controller.
“Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse is the third game in the series. After losing her genie abilities in Shantae: Risky’s Revenge, Shantae is an ordinary human. After finding out the mayor sold Scuttle Town to the Ammo Baron and Risky Boot’s Tinkerbats have been turned into Cacklebats by Dark Magic, Shantae joins forces with Risky to fight the Pirate Master. This means Shantae ends up gaining various pirate abilities.”
Oh good so I don’t have to buy it on the 3DS
Same here.
I wonder if she make it in for smash bros.
I knew I would find someone who had already managed to make a comment like this one…
‘Don not bet on it’, is all I will leave you with.
And why?
It’s hard
It’s hard?
It’s hard to see Shantae on Smash as also for Shovel Knight. I know these characters are popular but not at the same level as Rayman, Bomberman and other good characters.
Good. Pirate’s Curse is the best in the entire series.
I love the Metroidvania design with the mapping and upgrades that very distinctive but also different from the usual transformation gimmick that actually kills the pace of the game. It sucks that this may not come back as a standard which explains why Shantae 4 had that Risky DLC.
Shantae 3 is clearly the best game and I hope it’s coming to Switch. I don’t mind double dipping for this gem.
Love this game! I hope it gets a physical release!
Nintendo wasn’t kidding when they said the Switch would have more games than Wii U. We get multiple announcements every day it seems.
True and still new games are coming
Yeah boy! Best Shantae game. Still want Shantae in smash.
Already got interested in the first release (on Switch), even more interested in this since you say it’s better than the other one.
