Topic: Nintendo Downloads - April 23, 2026

[Shaymin]

One of the better games this week isn't coming out in Canada, if you're wondering about my feelings about it.

There's one game that will drive the conversation this week as the maker of Vampire Survivors is pivoting to the deckbuilding roguelike, so expect to hear a lot about Vampire Crawlers from certain outlets later this week. Apart from that, we have a game which of course came out today in Jay and Silent Bob's Chronic Blunt Punch (Neal review), one where filing off the serial numbers on Saint Seiya is one of its minor offenses (Jordan review), and yet the second best game of the week might be friend of the pod Artdink's Aquanaut's Holiday - and I can't find out personally. Yippee.

THINGS WE MISSED LAST WEEK: The Telltale (in name only?) Expanse adventure game came to Switch, while the Archives brought Konami GT - take a wild guess what that is - and Ishin no Arashi which is an untranslated Koei strategy game from the Famicom. (Sorry, an "8-bit home console".) Remember, the odds of Atlantis no Nazo from Console Archives are slim, but never zero.

IS THE EGGCONSOLE GAME PLAYABLE IN ENGLISH: The eShop description for Adventure of Randar says it's in Japanese.
