Nintendo Downloads for August 14, 2025 (North America)

Whoa, okay, let’s dive right in. So, there’s this big ol’ update from Nintendo eShop for North America this week. New stuff for the Switch 2 and the classic Switch. And, plenty of discounts—because who doesn’t love a bargain, right? Maybe you’re just supposed to pretend you don’t see it, but come on. Temptation is real.

Sales Galore

You know those deals that scream "BUY ME"? Yeah, those ones. Nintendo of America’s got the full list, so check it out if you dare. Or, wait, was it if you care? Anyway, whatever—just look at the list!

New Nintendo Switch 2 Games

Alright, let’s get to the exciting bits. Here’s what’s fresh this week for the Switch 2:

• Drag X Drive
• EA Sports Madden NFL 26

Switch Classics: This Week’s Lineup

Now, put on your nostalgia goggles or whatever, here’s everything launching for the good ol’ Switch.

• 1989 After the War (available Friday the 15th—spooky?)
• Bendy: Lone Wolf (same Friday 15th, going strong)
• Bubble Wizard IV Saga
• Bunkers 1944 FPS (also Friday—okay, literally everyone loves Fridays)
• Camp Life: Wilderness Survival 2025 (guess when? Yup, Friday 15th)
• Cats in Cozy Rooms (again, the 15th, surprise!)
• CORE.SYS (oh look, this one jumps to Wednesday the 20th, curveball!)
• Crossout Legends, and so many more.

Now I’m distracted thinking about how "Cyber Car Seller Simulator" might or might not involve selling imaginary cars.

Honestly, these names are wild. Like “DUCK: Dangerous Ultimate Cartridge Kidnapper”—what? It begs questions that probably shouldn’t be answered. Or “Escape the Backrooms BODYCAM," which, not gonna lie, sounds like something out of my strange dreams.

Let’s pause. I mean, GOST of Time? Demons Are Coming! (both out on that magical Friday), and who could forget "Yarn Guardians"? What even is that? Wait, don’t answer. I’ll figure it out one day when I’m knee-deep in yarn.

And, oh man, “Shantae Advance: Risky Revolution” hits this Tuesday, the 19th. Not gonna lie, kinda pumped for that one. Feels like a throwback to golden gaming days, which reminds me—I should really organize my game shelf.

Alrighty, enough of my rambling. This messy rundown should give you something to chew on. Patchy, random, and somehow, oddly satisfying. Because life’s too short for structured prose, am I right?
