About this game

THE NEW DENPA MEN combines collecting companions with stage-based adventuring. Normal Catch searches nearby wireless LAN signals for Denpa Men. Choose companions with characteristics suited to the next stage, give individual battle instructions and look for treasure chests or hidden passages. Main stages sit alongside limited-time events and conditionally unlocked extra stages, while island decoration provides another activity. The dedicated Nintendo Switch 2 version retains this game content and can continue a Switch save through the same Nintendo Account. The main game requires an internet connection. Service is scheduled to end on December 7, 2026, at 11:00 JST; sales of paid items have already ended, and the publisher says in-game items and currency will become unavailable after closure.

6.5 / 10Nintendo Switch 2

A collecting-and-party-building prospect whose announced service ending materially limits its appeal.

Choosing companions for stage characteristics could make collecting useful beyond completing a roster. The scheduled closure makes this a poor fit for anyone seeking an enduring online collection.

Strengths

  • Companion differences give collecting a connection to party decisions.

Weaknesses

  • Online dependence and the announced closure limit the value of planning a long-term collection.

Who it is for: Players curious about signal-based collecting and party selection who accept the announced service timetable.

Play notes: Service ends December 7, 2026, at 11:00 JST. Paid-item sales have ended; the publisher says items and currency will no longer be available after closure.

Timed events add calendar-dependent goals, although the announced closure places a firm boundary on future planning.

Island decoration offers a way to give the adventure’s home base a personal identity.

Account-linked saves can ease a move from Switch, but main-game internet dependence and the ban on simultaneous device use constrain access.
