Ah, Nintendo eShop updates! Oh boy, where do I start? This week’s lineup feels like a mixed bag of excitement and nostalgia—like rummaging through your grandma’s attic and finding all sorts of quirky treasures.
So, Fantasy Life i? Finally here after what felt like a century of waiting. Delays and trailers had me on edge, but hey, it’s finally out. You get to lose yourself in 14 different roles. Yes, 14! And there’s town building! Console cross play! It’s like they tried to cram every possible feature into one game—so much to sink your teeth into.
Switching gears, Nintendo’s music streaming? Expanding like my disappointment in slow Wi-Fi. This week, you can dive into the classic tunes of Kid Icarus. Both the Famicom and NES versions are here, so you can pretend you’re back in the ’80s, jamming out with your boombox and neon leg warmers.
Retro enthusiasts, brace yourselves. Killer Instinct Gold, the N64 classic, is now on the Nintendo Switch Online. If fighters are your jam, this one’s for you. Ten fighters to choose from, loads of explosive moves, and just the right amount of button mashing to keep you coming back—like potato chips, impossible to stop at just one.
Oh, and the Switch 2 is almost here! Just over a week away, and those pre-orders are calling your name. Hitman, Kunitsu-Gami, and Survival Kids are up for grabs. Do I feel a shopping spree coming on? Maybe, maybe not. But June 5th is that close, and I’ve got my eyes peeled.
Speaking of new temptations, Switch 1 has a chunk of fresh titles too, like Please, Don’t Touch the Artwork 2. Curious about how they’ll stack up? Same here. Let’s chat about what you’re diving into while we bide our time for that Switch 2 drop. Oh, the anticipation!
Now entering the Fantasy Life i world—The Girl Who Steals Time. Yeah, “steals” because that’s exactly what it’s going to do to your clock. Choose from a slew of roles, hop between classes, and explore an island with secrets lurking behind every corner. Got three friends? Perfect! You can all dive into this mysterious world together.
Let’s talk Killer Instinct Gold again. I mean, who doesn’t love a good C-C-C-Combo Breaker? Ten fighters, arcade mode, and more combos than I can count. It’s a button-mashing extravaganza—you might end up dreaming in combos, who knows?
Pre-orders, oh my. Hitman World of Assassination—stealth and disguises galore. Kunitsu-Gami: Path of the Goddess promises some wild, dance-like sword action. And Survival Kids? Picture this: a dusty attic, mysterious maps, and a wild adventure. It’s like the Goonies but on a game console.
Music lovers, imagine spreading your wings with Kid Icarus soundtracks on Nintendo Music. It’s like basking in angelic harmonies. Okay, maybe that’s a stretch, but it’s something to lose yourself in.
Activities? Creator’s Voice is digging into Hyrule Warriors, sharing epic tales from Hyrule’s past. And Animal Crossing fans, your dreams of waking up on an island oasis just got real with this new alarm clock feature. Wake up in paradise or hit snooze, your call.
And there are even more new additions this week. But I’ve rambled enough for now. Dive in, explore, and let’s see what catches your fancy!
