Following the launch of Nintendo Switch 2, we’re putting together a complete list of Nintendo Switch 2 games with a game-key card release.
This is a new approach to physical media, which has seen a mixed reaction. In a way, it’s a hybrid between a true physical release and a download code. Each box comes with a cartridge, but there’s nothing really included. Rather than coming with all content, you’ll need to download the game first. After that you don’t need to connect online, but you need to insert the card each time you play.
Thousands of games are currently available on Nintendo Switch, and there are a ton of demos out there for many of them. Not just Nintendo, but also third-parties are offering demos. We’ve now put together a comprehensive list of what’s out there.
Since our reader base is English-speaking, that’s what we’re focusing on here. In other words, we’re highlighting Switch demos that you can find in North America and Europe. Japan has a few extra demos on its end, but a majority of them are for titles that are not currently being sold in the west and are only playable in Japanese.
Listings on the eShops provide file sizes for a bunch of Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch games. These include Mouse: P.I. For Hire, People of Note, and more.
Here’s the full roundup:
The latest Nintendo Switch 2 eShop charts for the week of April 5, 2026 are now available.
No surprises here as Pokemon Pokopia is still #1. In terms of new titles, South of Midnight debuts at #9. Super Meat Boy 3D and Darwin’s Paradox are out of the top ten at #17 and #19 respectively.
Below are the full Nintendo Switch 2 eShop charts for the week of April 5, 2026:
These days, a big majority of games get DLC in some form, whether it’s free or (more often) paid. But with that being said, not every major Nintendo game has its own substantial expansion – some big-name titles that you would expect to have additional content don’t really have any to speak of at all. So today, we’re going over some of Nintendo’s biggest games that never got DLC, and including ideas for what said DLC could have added or changed to each title.
With rumors of a new Star Fox game coming to Nintendo Switch 2 in a matter of months, we’re talking about what we’d like to see.
Advance the canon. That’s about it! In all seriousness, the Star Fox series has been lying dormant for over ten years now. There hasn’t been an all-new Star Fox title since Star Fox Zero on Wii U, but it wasn’t received very well – and, perhaps more frustratingly, it was yet another retelling of the original Star Fox. To that end, the franchise’s biggest problem has been revealed: it keeps telling the same story. The original Star Fox sees the team taking on Andross for the first time. Star Fox 64 also sees the team taking on Andross for the first time, and then Star Fox Zero sees them in the exact same situation. The canon has been at a standstill for twenty years, since Star Fox Command on Nintendo DS. That’s a very, very long time for a series to tell no new stories. We’ll talk about this in more detail soon, but for now, here are some things we’d love to see from a new Star Fox game.
The Super Mario Galaxy Movie finally released this week. Three years after the previous film, Nintendo’s famous plumber is back. There are even some unexpected inclusions this time with Fox McCloud from Star Fox making an appearance.
Did you get a chance to watch The Super Mario Galaxy Movie this week? If so, what’s your rating for the film? Let us know in the comments below.
Donna Orlowski, the COO of Chucklefish, has explained why Witchbrook has taken so long to release.
Back in 2016, the project was first teased. A year later, it was announced as Spellbrook, and then became Witchbrook in 2018. We’ve essentially seen the last decade fly by, but the game has still yet to debut.
According to a developer that worked on Mario Strikers Charged, there was some consideration for having Link in Mario Strikers Charged.
As a Mario game, Strikers Charged expectedly stuck with characters associated with that franchise. However, there was the possibility of bringing in that famous character from The Legend of Zelda.
