Nintendo Releases – April 10, 2025 – Announcement

After a whirlwind of activity, we’re settling back into the regular rhythm of Switch OG updates, although last week’s frenzy is hard to forget. We might have missed Namco’s Assault Plus in the archives during all the chaos, but this week’s releases bring some exciting prospects.

In just four words, last week was an intense ride: major updates and the aftermath of the Switch 2 Direct event kept everyone on their toes. Despite the earlier madness, this week’s eShop lineup still offers a few gems worth noting. Star Overdrive, a hovercraft-focused adventure teased during the Direct, is finally arriving, reminding us just how quickly time flies. Also on the horizon is Battlefield Waltz, brought to us by Idea Factory and localized by IFI. It’s worth keeping an eye out for any updates or patches when it drops.

A few more games catch the eye this week, including "Promise Mascot Agency," along with another entry in the Snow Bros. series. There’s also a basic maze game from 1983 making its way outside Japan, giving retro enthusiasts something to get excited about.
