Aussie Nintendo Download Updates (19/2 – 25/2) – Heyday
It’s pay day! Well, Payday 2 at least! We finally have the game on Switch after being shown off some time ago, so get ready for some heists and rob some banks! In the game, not real life please.
We also have PAC-MAN Championship Edition 2 Plus, Typoman, Toki Tori 2+ and tons more, so check them all out below!
The 3DS also gets SteamWorld Dig 2, so if you don’t have a Switch yet, now’s your chance!

I really want Pacman, but the stupidly expensive pricetag ($30?!). plus lack of eight player multiplayer (hellllooo!!!! 4 Pacmen/Ms Pacmen vs 4 Ghosts), plus gargantuan file size (over 2GB for this?!!!) is really off-putting. I’ll wait for a 50% off discount. I would have happily paid up to $50 for a retail release otherwise (even though the rudimentary Pacman formula that hasn’t evolved in some 40 years doesn’t particularly deserve it).
Hollow is really tempting, but the fact that DOOM has just been updated has rendered it redundant (at least for the time being).
I’m really looking forward to grabbing the retail version of Payday 2 though. It looks like a lot of fun. I wish Ubisoft would port the two Watch_Dogs games over as well. The stories/plot/acting sucked (in typical Hollywood action movie fashion), but the gameplay was exhilarating.
Yeah I was going to bite (no pun intended) on Pacman, but 30 bucks seems too pricey to me
