Nintendo March Release Schedule: Every Switch and 3DS Game Dates

Following a rather shallow pool of Nintendo Switch and 3DS games in February, March is shaping up to be a lot better.

Not only will Nintendo fans get the return of Yarn Yoshi in his first Switch adventure, Yarn Kirby returns for the 3DS in a port of the underrated Wii title. Of course, there's a few Final Fantasy games coming to Switch in February and so much more.

Here's everything coming to Nintendo Switch and 3DS in March.

NINTENDO 3DS MARCH RELEASES

There is only one announced Nintendo 3DS title dropping this March, and it's Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn. A port of the 2010 Nintendo Wii title, Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn will drop with new features, including Ravel Abilities that will power up Kirby, and new mini-games featuring beloved characters like Meta Knight and King Dedede.

Players will also be able to personalize Kirby's Pad with more furniture and there will even be a Devilish mode that gives a harder challenge difficulty. Not to mention amiibo support from the Kirby series figures.
