The latest Nintendo Switch 2 eShop charts for the week of February 15, 2026 are now available.
Mario Tennis Fever is now here, and as Nintendo’s newest release, it’s no surprise to see it at #1. For other new games, Reanimal cracks the top five (with a separate edition a few spots down). If you look at the download-only side of things, Tokyo Scramble appears as well.
Below are the full Nintendo Switch 2 eShop charts for the week of February 15, 2026:

New data provided by Famitsu gives us a look at Japan’s best-selling games of January 2026.
The top five is actually comprised of only three games thanks to different Nintendo Switch 2 and Switch versions. However, once again, it’s Mario Kart World taking the top spot. The start of the year tends to be slow, so there aren’t new releases here.
Below is the full list of Japan’s best-selling games of January 2026:
All of Pokemon’s DLC ranked, from best to worst
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan Gnau in Features, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Believe it or not, things used to be much worse from Pokemon fans. You’d buy a copy of Pokemon Diamond or Pearl, only for Platinum to come out at full price later on. Not only did you have to spend $40 all over again, but you had to play the entire game over again. That warrants the incredibly tedious process of trading over all your Pokemon, one-by-one. And while many of the third version titles are the definitive versions of their respective regions – Emerald, Platinum, and Black 2 and White 2 – it never feels good having to restart your adventure from scratch. Thankfully, it seems this trend is just about over and done with. Since 2019, Pokemon has opted to develop and release DLC for its main series titles instead. With this system, you can continue your adventure in a new sub-region without having to start over. And today, we’re ranking every single Pokemon DLC to see which one comes out on top.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons still has a major flaw, even after the 3.0 update
Posted on 1 month ago by Ethan Gnau in Features, Switch, Switch 2 | 0 comments
Not too long ago, Nintendo released a fairly large new update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons – the first in almost four years. It adds all sorts of new features, from Splatoon and Zelda items to a brand-new resort hotel to classic games you can play within your town. It also makes some really helpful quality-of-life changes: you can access crafting materials from your storage no matter where on your island you are, and you can craft multiple items all at once. Between these changes and the ability to access your storage anywhere via the storage sheds, it’s so much easier to fully decorate your island now than it was when the game first launched almost six years ago. That being said, Animal Crossing: New Horizons still has one major flaw that may well never be fixed – tool durability.
