Distribution starts in Japan on February 22nd.
D4 Enterprise has announced that Hydlide 3: The Space Memories is the next PC-88 game that will be heading to the Nintendo Switch eShop as part of its EGGCONSOLE series of retro reissues. It will begin distribution in Japan next week on February 22nd, with the game expected to hit Western storefronts shortly after.
In case you’re unaware, these are essentially a collection of fairly barebone rereleases that are bringing a bunch of classic Japanese computer games to the Nintendo platform, starting with titles originally released for the PC-88. The list of games published so far includes Relics, Thexder, Silpheed, Ys, Marchen Veil, Hydlide, Yokai Tantei, and Xanadu, with most of these titles featuring English menu options and “How to Play” sections while retaining their original text elsewhere (for better or for worse).
