Shantae's Game Boy Color Adventure Arrives On Nintendo Switch This Month - Nintendo Life
Apr 11, 2021 3 mins, 47 secs

WayForward has revealed the original Shantae for Game Boy Color will be released on Switch eShop on 22nd April.

Along with an announcement on social media, it's also released a trailer showing off the original game in action on Nintendo's hybrid hardware.

"The original Shantae is (almost) back!

Experience Shantae's original GBC adventure in all its hair-whipping, belly-dancing, shape-shifting glory when it lands in the Nintendo Switch eShop on April 22!".

Physical editions for Switch and also the Game Boy Color were offered by Limited Run Games last year, and have now sold out.

Will you be revisiting Shante's original outing when it lands on the Switch later this month.

When he’s not paying off a loan to Tom Nook, Liam likes to report on the latest Nintendo news and admire his library of video games?

I'm happy Shantae has grown into such a fine series, and this one is worth checking out, as the one that started the whole thing.

i love wayforward but this was probably delayed to meet up with when the physical copies from lrg got shipped out which is scummy.

Why hasn't it been on the eShop until now.

It really should have been an all-in-one cartridge alongside Risky's Revenge rather than two separate LRG releases (and limited editions to boot!).

And I love GB games so much that I'd buy just about any ludicrously priced physical Switch release to get them!

I'm mad that the physical copy of shantae cursed pirate is crazy crazy expensive like wtf.....can lrg do another run or something please lol.

@anoyonmus the series does have an ongoing story throughout, here’s the list in order and the original nintendo system they were released on.

Shantae - Game Boy Color.

Waiting for my Limited Run physical release to be delivered which should be shipping out soon.

Along with Shantae Risky's Revenge and Doom 64 for Switch and PS4?

Shantae's extremely short attack range makes this game very frustrating, especially since most enemies take multiple hits and barely get stunned if at all.

Well, I would have liked a physical collection of the first 3 games, and not limited, but if they come to the eShop I'll definitely wait for a price drop

It's a nice touch that the first Shantae comes with the enhanced GBA version too, though, because it's not like any of us can try what happens when you put one of the superexpensive copies of the original in the GBA slot

So the inaugural entry I'll definitely buy at some point, and it's a great game that I loved when I played it a couple years ago

By the way, Risky's Revenge and Pirate's Curse are on Wii U too, but they'll come to the Switch sooner or later, because LRG made physical copies of all three (first one included) and they just started to release them digitally for the common folk

The first game is kind of rough

I think Shantae has earned a spot

It's time to buy this game

blaming rarity of the game

Nice game by the way

Brilliant news, have it on 3DS virtual console but I'd love this on Switch

I got the physical copy ordered from Limited Run Games but still great to see

Double dipping on this game

Pre ordered a game boy color cart from LRG and I'll get it on the switch as well

I would love to see more gameboy (advance) games on switch one day

Could shantae be the start

Unlike other folks here, I will be double-dipping on and restarting the game, although I'm not sure how far I am on 3DS (just met Rottytops)

Switch is a pure Shantae machine now, what a time to be alive

And once I'm through with this game and Risky's Revenge (obtained during the holidays earlier), it'll be time to finally double-dip on Pirate's Curse and gradually venture further with this amazing franchise
