This week’s Nintendo eShop update for North America? Oh boy, it’s a festival for the Nintendo Switch fans. New games, lots of them. Plus, there are discounts. Plenty of them. And who doesn’t love a good bargain?
Anyway, let’s talk sales because that’s where the magic is. Visit Nintendo of America’s website. Seriously, do it if you want the full rundown. Some deals are ridiculous, like finding $20 in your winter coat ridiculous.
Now, games. What’s new? A bunch of stuff. Like, 1-2-3 or 4-5-6 — a weird one where you spot the outlier among dice. It sounds simple, right? But no, it’s a sneaky test of your instincts. I thought it was going to be easy. Spoiler: it wasn’t.
There’s a game called 2weistein in Rongerland that’s somehow educational. It mixes math and a 3D adventure. Developed by specialists (whoever they are) and some teachers. I got scared just thinking about it, but apparently, it’s won awards.
Ambidextro is next. A multiplayer game meant for a single player — yes, you read that right. You need to control two characters simultaneously. Are you coordinated enough? I’m not.
Then there’s ANNIE: Last Hope. Set in the 90s, it kicks off with creatures invading. Annie’s trying to find her fiancé, but there’s like a conspiracy and dark secrets. Honestly, it sounds like a bad day multiplied by a thousand.
On to Aooni The Horror of Blueberry Onsen — a horror puzzle action thing. This one’s for the brave souls who enjoy being scared senseless.
Jump to Arcade Archives Pinball Action. Released originally in 1985, it’s about shaking tables and controlling the ball, and maybe winning? It’s an 80s vibe, for sure.
Beyond Memories: Tales From the Heart. You’re a Grim Reaper flying through magical places. Seriously, it’s a visual trip, freeing souls and hearing stories — kind of like that fantasy you had as a kid but cooler.
What else? Bunker 22. The world’s ending (again) and you must save it from zombies. Everyone’s favorite pastime, right? You’re a genius scientist or something, so I’d say good luck.
Captain Blood drops you into a pirate life in the 17th century. Expect sword fights, shooting cannons, and wild pirate antics. Rum, maybe?
CATO: Buttered Cat plays on that odd paradox about cats and buttered toast. Is it a joke? Probably. Is it fun? You bet.
Cozy Tides offers peace and exploration on a tropical island. You wander, discover secrets, and just chill. Sounds perfect for a lazy afternoon.
Fast forward to CybeRage. Available Friday. Nasty bugs, upgrades, drones, and blades. It’s like they threw everything cool into one chaotic package.
Earth Saver might save the world, or at least try. You blow up a meteorite, ensuring you don’t accidentally end up like the dinosaurs.
Finally, there’s something nostalgic about Escape Game The Nostalgic Cafe, which makes you solve riddles. Quite calming, if you ask me — unless you hate riddles.
I mean, there’s a truckload more, like High On Life (talking alien guns, anyone?) and Hood Story, where you navigate gang wars. But that’s enough for now.
So, go. Dive into this wild mix. Or don’t. No pressure.
