Nintendo Update: August 14, 2025 (North America)

Whoa, so this week in Nintendo eShop land, we’ve got a whole slew of stuff happening. And—yeah—I gotta say, it’s kind of a mix of cool and “Oh, hey, didn’t see you there” moments.

Nintendo eShop Sales

Okay, so if you’re looking for deals (who isn’t, right?), Nintendo’s throwing some pretty sweet discounts your way. Check out the deets on their site, because I’m not listing them all here. I mean, there are like a zillion games, literally—or not literally but, you know, a lot. And speaking of sales, why do they never include the game you want on sale? Just me?

Brand New Nintendo Switch 2 Games This Week

Alright, let’s dive in. There’s Drag X Drive and—wait for it—EA Sports Madden NFL 26. And maybe it’s just me, but sports games feel like they’re releasing every other week, right? Anyway, those are the shiny new Switch 2 goodies.

New Nintendo Switch Games Hitting This Week

Holy moly, there are a ton! Let’s break this down, kinda.

• 1989 After the War: Popping up this Friday.
• Bendy: Lone Wolf: Also Friday—how about that synchronicity?
• Bubble Wizard IV Saga: Seems magical. Me and bubbles? Just saying.
• Bunkers 1944 FPS: Happening again on Friday.
• Camp Life: Wilderness Survival 2025: Apparently, everyone’s giving Friday vibes.
• Cats in Cozy Rooms: Once again, Friday. Friday must be the new Tuesday.

Skipping a few—and I mean, a LOT—details like exact days. Who keeps track of that? But, oh, “Cyber Car Seller Simulator”? Sounds like something a friend once told me about in a dream. Or was it a nightmare? Hard to say.

Continuing, there’s Demons Are Coming! on—you guessed it—Friday. Sounds like my inner thoughts when I wake up late.

Skipping ahead, there are intriguing ones like DUCK: Dangerous Ultimate Cartridge Kidnapper and Hop ’n’ Marty. Marty makes me think of that time-traveling movie… or maybe that was Rick? Tangents.

But hey, if offbeat’s your jam, how about the irresistibly named Eggconsole Brandish Renewal PC-9801? No clue what that means, but it’s out there existing like a surreal piece of art. Why did I picture eggs?

And on it goes with stuff like Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution and something called Super Darling Panic—sounds like a sitcom about my life. Alright, maybe not, but you get me.

Some of the games come out on days that aren’t Friday, like CORE.SYS on Wednesday. Gotta keep it wild, I guess.

So yeah, if you’re getting your game on, there’s more stuff here than you can shake a Joy-Con at. Dive in, get playing, and maybe find something that makes you say, “Well, that wasn’t planned, but here we are.” Sort of like life itself, huh? Anyway—wait, no—enjoy the chaos!
