After a whirlwind of activity over the past week, we’re easing back into the usual update routine with the Nintendo Switch OG. There were a few things we couldn’t catch last week, like Namco’s Assault Plus making its appearance in the Archives.
Reflecting on the previous week can honestly be boiled down to just a few words: "OK, so THAT happened." With the Switch 2 Direct taking the spotlight and all the unpredictable events that came after, particularly from the chaos of 20500, this week’s less crowded eShop lineup feels somewhat refreshing. However, don’t let that fool you—there are still some noteworthy releases. Star Overdrive, which made a brief mention during the Direct, stands out with its hovercraft-centered gameplay. It’s hard to believe it’s only been about a week and a half since then; it feels like a small eternity has passed. Also launching this week is Battlefield Waltz, brought to us by Idea Factory/Otomate and localized by IFI. Keep an eye out for news on any day-one patches before diving in.
Other intriguing releases include Promise Mascot Agency, another entry in the Snow Bros. series, and for this week’s classic retro pick, we’ve got EggConsole’s Pyramid Warp maze game from 1983. It looks like a safe bet for collectors outside Japan.
