Nintendo eShop Update – NBA Playgrounds, Blaster Master Zero demo, Triple Breakout

Somehow Nintendo wasn’t able to find a few Star Wars games or content to celebrate May the 4th, but that’s okay, there are a still few other goodies to check out on the eShop.

Switch highlights include the NBA Jam-esque NBA Playgrounds (which launches next week) and the Blaster Master Zero demo (also for the 3DS).  Wii U owners get Bonk’s Revenge as a Virtual Console game, along with WinKings and Fifteen. Infinite Golf launches for the 3DS, alongside Triple Breakout.

See all the new and upcoming content below.
