After an absolutely wild week, the Nintendo Switch seems to be returning to its usual rhythm, though with a tinge of normalcy that might feel almost mundane after the chaos.
We missed a few things last week, notably Namco’s "Assault Plus" in the Archives. So, let’s dive into what’s on the horizon. To sum up last week, just these few words: "OK, so THAT happened." With the buzz around the Switch 2 Direct and the ensuing chaos largely around the number 20500, this week’s selection from the eShop feels almost nostalgic. That said, there’s still some excitement to look forward to. "Star Overdrive," a hovercraft-focused game briefly mentioned in a Direct, finally launches. It seems ages since that announcement—a week and a half feels like an eternity. Then there’s "Battlefield Waltz" from Idea Factory/Otomate, actually localized by IFI. But it’s wise to wait for any initial patches before diving into that one.
This week also brings us some interesting titles like "Promise Mascot Agency," yet another "Snow Bros." game, and intriguingly, the EggConsole’s weekly feature is a simple maze game from 1983—so if you’re not in Japan, "Pyramid Warp" might just be worth picking up.
