Enough to make you mad(den).

This guide was originally published back in February 2022 with the title ‘All Six American Football Games On Switch (Yes, You Read That Right)’. However, in the time since, several more gridiron games have appeared on the system — there’s now a total of 11 by our count — so we’ve rejigged and updated things a little bit to make this a comprehensive list of every American Football game on Switch. Let us know below if we missed any and we’ll be sure to update. Enjoy!

As we write this it’s nearly time for the SUPER BOWL, which we understand has to be shouted with great enthusiasm. As a bit of history, here in NL Towers during Thanksgiving we had a bright idea – “Let’s do a best NFL-style list for Switch, like the proper football / soccer one we did in the Summer!”

He’s got manners, at least.

Super Mario Bros. Wonder is just around the corner, launching on the Switch on October 20th, 2023. As such, Nintendo is ramping up its marketing campaign with adverts left, right, and centre, making sure that everybody and their Nan are aware of the upcoming title.

The latest ad is a rather amusing video showcasing Peach and her persistent stalker, Bowser, who forgoes the usual kidnapping plot in favour of a simple flower. However, a piece of Elephant Fruit tumbles by and is quickly absorbed by Peach, transforming her into Elephant Peach.

A modest sum, hm?

After the initial tease last week, it thankfully hasn’t taken Lego and Nintendo too long to lift the lid on its latest collaborative line-up, revealing five sets based on the Animal Crossing franchise launching in March 2024.

With prices ranging from $14.99 all the way up to $74.99, the first batch in what we assume will be an extensive product line represents some of the franchise’s most beloved characters, including Tom Nook, Isabelle, and Kapp’n.

So. Many. Games.

As we hurtle towards Holiday season, we can all agree that 2023 has been an incredibly strong year in terms of the number of quality games hitting the Switch eShop on a weekly basis. Last month alone, we published 34 reviews in 30 days, and we could have easily doubled that number based on the sheer amount of interesting-looking Switch software.

But, alas, resources are finite and inevitably we aren’t able to play and review everything we’d like to here at Nintendo Life. So, every six months or so we put out a call to our lovely community of readers to highlight gems that passed us by. Back in April, in Part 6 of our Reader Recommendations series, you highlighted 22 eShop gems, including Xiaomei and the Flame Dragon’s Fist, Floppy Knights, and Terror of Hemasaurus.
