Nintendo eShop Update: Sports Story, Toy Soldiers HD

Let’s be honest here: this isn’t exactly a stellar week for new games on the Switch. Many people are taking it easy during this traditional lull between Christmas and New Year’s, and that also goes for developers, publishers, and the people who add new games to the eShop, as evidenced by the fact this week’s update only includes a dozen games (and most of them are bargain basement shovelware).

However, there are a couple of intruguing titles to be found. Sports Story is the very long-awaited follow-up to Golf Story, and it combines sports like soccer, tennis, and golf with an interesting RPG system. Also in the “long-awaited” category, we have Toy Soldiers HD, which finally arrives on the the Switch after multiple delays.

See the full list below, and also check out Nintendo’s updated Game Store list here.
