And remember to always, always, always play around the AOE spam in the game of the week.

The biggest game of the week - and given that it's chucking Mario Kart World out of Switch 2 bundles on launch day, probably the year - is Nintendo's big holiday game in Pokemon Legends: Z-A as the ninth generation of Pokemon winds down. Obviously we'll be getting our Totodile or Tepig on (I'm doing Switch voucher -> Switch 2 upgrade, so maybe BOTH?) later this week and will have a review as soon as we can get it written. (Also going on sale Thursday is the DLC pack... and you don't HAVE to buy that now, just wait until the end of February when we get a launch or date in the 30th Anniversary Pokemon Presents we know is coming.)
Apart from Just Dance 2026 (feat. the one good Smash Mouth song), smaller releases are the just-launched Spindle and Devolver-published game I still can't describe in BALL x PIT. Because we don't talk about the narc game.
THINGS WE MISSED LAST WEEK: Konami action game Battlantis in Archives (and Archives 2).
IS THE EGGCONSOLE GAME PLAYABLE IN ENGLISH: It seems like it based on the screenshots of Revival Xanadu II, but caveat emptor.
