Here’s your round-up of games released this week on the 3DS, Wii U – and Switch – via the Nintendo eShop.
Move aside Wii U, there’s a new console in town. This week sees the debut of the Nintendo Switch eShop, which will be available via a day one system update on March 3.
We expect future releases for the Switch eShop to be on Thursdays, as is usual, but this week you can look forward to playing the new Zelda and Snipperclips at home, or on the go, from Friday.
The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild is the week’s biggest release, acting as a spectacular sign-off for the Wii U and a statement of intent for the Nintendo Switch. Early reviews are highly positive – including an Edge 10 – so it looks like an essential buy, regardless of the platform you choose.
