Cursed the bell with a warning. As the ominous chime echoed through the quiet village, the townsfolk stopped in their tracks and exchanged fearful glances. It was a sound they had come to dread, for it signaled impending danger. The bell, once a symbol of celebration and joy, had been cursed by a vengeful witch. Legend had it that many years ago, the witch had been wronged by the townspeople. Fuelled by rage and desire for revenge, she hexed the bell with a curse that would bring misfortune upon anyone who heard its toll.

For those not familiar with the original, the story opens with the evil Beanish witch Cackletta and her assistant Fawful arriving at the Mushroom Kingdom as ambassadors from the Beanbean Kingdom. It s an active map that tracks your character s location and occasionally shows a marker to indicate where you have to go next, which makes getting lost much harder though not impossible, hence my aforementioned sneaky walkthrough peek.
Fuelled by rage and desire for revenge, she hexed the bell with a curse that would bring misfortune upon anyone who heard its toll. From that day forward, the bell became a harbinger of doom. The curse had devastating consequences for the village.
3DS and Wii U games not yet available on Nintendo Switch - Complete Database (in progress)
This is an attempt at creating a complete database of all 3DS and Wii U games that didn't make the cut to the Switch (from Nintendo masterpieces to shovelware).
As it stands, the "raw data", consisting of just the list of the last-gen non-Switch games, is already gathered. This is, however, still a working progress as much more can be done, for example classify the games in categories such as "Third Party", "Indie Gem", "Shovelware", among others. Other information such as each game's developer would also enrich this list.
The idea behind this list is manly software preservation, because someday the other consoles' eShops will close and similarly to the Wii Shop channel some games may be lost, and with this database we know which of the bunch are not "safe" on Switch. But this is also a matter of consistency across Nintendo platforms, hence the inclusion of games with physical version. The Switch is such an amazing and successful console that, in my opinion (and of many here in this sub), it would be amazing if virtually every game was ported to it (or at least every Nintendo related one) .
There is some subjectivity in this selection of games, because we didn't include games that already have a improved version on the Switch (games that include the vast majority of the base game content), so for example Smash 4 is not here, because almost everything it had to offer is replicated in Ultimate. In the other hand, Mario Kart 7 is in fact listed, because very few of it's tracks are represented in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe.
The criteria used are as follows:
- Every original 3DS game not on Switch is featured
- If a game is in both 3DS and Wii U but not in Switch, it appears listed as 3DS game (because the 3DS outlived the Wii U and probably so will it's eShop)
- Every original Wii U game not on 3DS and not on Switch is featured
- This searched is based on the PAL games of the consoles and in Nintendo's official website
- If a game has a port/enhanced version/remake announced for the Nintendo Switch (e.g. Super Mario 3D World) it is off the list.
The idea of this post is creating this database together as a fun little fan project, seeing as it is incomplete and can have a much better organization and presentation that it has as of this moment.
- Adding the other regions (NA and Japan)
- Tag the games as "Indie Gem", "Shovelware".
- Associate to each game a possible reason for why the port hasn't happened yet (e.g. extinct developer, technical difficulties, irrelevance, etc. )
- Group the numbers in graphs or other more pleasant presentation
- Create dream ports to Switch (a favorite of this sub :) ) based on the games yet to port (not only of a simple game like Xenoblade Chronicles X for Switch but for example: Etrian Odyssey Collection, based on the fact that there are a bunch of games from that series "stuck" on the 3DS)
Well here it goes:
Legend:
N = Made/Published by Nintendo
TP = Third Party with physical version
IG = Indie Gem (subjective)

Whenever the bell rang, calamity followed. Crops failed, sickness spread, and accidents occurred. Fear and despair plagued the villagers as they lived in constant anticipation of the cursed bell. Years passed, and generations came and went, but the curse remained. The villagers sought answers and solutions, but their efforts proved fruitless. Some even dared to remove the bell, hoping to break the curse, but it always reappeared mysteriously, its haunting toll resuming. Despite the cursed bell's presence, the villagers refused to let fear consume them entirely. They became resilient, joining together to face each imminent disaster with determination. The cursed bell became a reminder of their strength and unity, a rallying cry to stay strong in the face of adversity. With time, the curse began to lose its power. The villagers' determination and resilience weakened its grip on their lives. They learned to adapt, finding ways to thrive despite the curse's lingering presence. The bell became a relic of their history, a symbol of their collective strength and perseverance. Eventually, the curse faded away completely, its hold on the village broken. The bell that had once struck fear into hearts now tolled in celebration. The villagers rejoiced, their spirits lifted, knowing that they had transcended the curse's dark magic. The cursed bell served as a reminder to the village for generations to come. It taught them the importance of resilience, unity, and hope in the face of adversity. The villagers became a beacon of strength, inspiring nearby communities with their story of overcoming the curse. Today, the bell stands as a testament to the village's triumph over darkness. It serves as a reminder of the power of human spirit and the beauty that can emerge from even the darkest of curses. The villagers no longer fear the bell's toll but embrace it as a symbol of their indomitable resolve..
Reviews for "Hearing the Haunting Call of the Cursed Bell: Accounts from the Bewitched"
1. Samantha - 2 stars
I found "Cursed the Belp with" to be quite disappointing. The plot was extremely confusing and hard to follow, with no clear direction or resolution. The characters were also poorly developed, making it hard to connect with them or care about their story. Additionally, the writing style was very erratic, alternating between flowery descriptions and abrupt dialogue. Overall, I struggled to stay engaged with this book and wouldn't recommend it.
2. Mark - 1 star
"Cursed the Belp with" was a complete waste of time for me. The storyline was cliché and predictable, with no originality or surprises. The dialogue felt forced and unrealistic, making it hard to believe or relate to the characters. Furthermore, the pacing was incredibly slow, and it took far too long for anything meaningful to happen. I found myself skimming through pages, hoping for some excitement or depth, but it never came. I regret picking up this book and would not recommend it to anyone seeking a captivating read.
3. Emily - 2 stars
I had high hopes for "Cursed the Belp with," but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The writing style was overly verbose, bogging down the flow of the story and making it difficult to immerse myself in the narrative. Moreover, the book lacked a strong central conflict or goal, leaving me feeling disconnected from the characters' journey. The world-building was also underdeveloped, with minimal description and little explanation of important elements. Overall, I found this book to be a forgettable read that failed to leave a lasting impression.
