The biggest releases this week are causing quite a bit of emotional whiplash.
http://www.nintendoworldreport.com/news/72693/nintendo-downloads-october-2-2025
In a week that is interesting (derogatory) for crossing over a quarter which means having to track a part of the week separately... hey, did you know we crossed 2100 Switch releases for the year last week, even with the Switch 2 launching? There's three big games this week which straddle the quarter, and they're all remakes: the Nintendo console debut of the original Final Fantasy Tactics and the Switch debut of Super Mario Galaxy 2 (but not the original). Jordan reviewed Tactics, and the Galaxy games have extant reviews where the lowest one is for the original in a form that had a 1.5 point deduction for including Super Mario Sunshine in the package. Presumably.
Speaking of Mario, he's not appearing in the big party game of the week: LEGO Party. At least as far as we know. But the game is developed by SMG Studios, makers of the Moving Out duology and Switch launch title Death Squared if you're wondering what they got up to.
IS THE EGGCONSOLE GAME PLAYABLE IN ENGLISH: Action RPG, screenshots on the eShop show mostly English apart from the manual scans... we'll call it a "maybe".
