Fantasy Life i Joins This Week’s eShop Highlights

Hey, you ever just get lost in what’s popping on the Nintendo eShop? Like, there’s so much happening right now, it’s hard to keep track. Fantasy Life i finally made it outta its cocoon after, like, who knows how many delays. You remember when it was just a whisper in the wind back in 2012? Playing all those different life roles? I swear, the options are basically endless. Console cross play, town building – it’ll probably consume lives for months.

Oh, and random thought: Nintendo’s music streaming is expanding. Kid Icarus tunes anyone? Nostalgia much? They’re rolling out both the Famicom and NES versions because, why not relive the chaos twice?

Retro vibes are strong with another N64 classic – Killer Instinct Gold. Who doesn’t love a good combo breaker? I remember chatting about it on the Pure Nintendo Podcast last week. Fighters, rejoice!

Flipping to future dreams, the Switch 2 is nearly here. I know, right? Hitman, Kunitsu-Gami, and Survival Kids are up for pre-order. They’re pretty tempting, but patience is not my strong suit. June 5 can’t come fast enough. Wanna dive right in? Hit that pre-order button.

Switch 1’s still got some juice too, with titles like Please, Don’t Touch the Artwork 2 begging for attention. Anyone else biting their nails waiting for the Switch 2?

Now, about this Fantasy Life i… seriously, 14 life roles? It’s like having multiple personalities but in a good way. Meet old pals, rebuild ruins, and you can even drag three friends into the chaos. It’s live, get on it!

Killer Instinct fans: you ever just sit in Training mode and attempt those ridiculously long Ultra Combos? Yeah, me neither. But hey, that’s what makes it fun, right?

Pre-orders are just as crowded – Hitman’s got this Signature Edition that sounds fancy – full stealth vibes. And Kunitsu-Gami adds a splash of Japan-inspired fantasy. Dance-like sword action? Honestly, I’m intrigued. But, Survival Kids? Now there’s a throwback feeling. Hidden worlds and storms on a trusty old map. Could be the adventure of a lifetime.

Music lovers, they’re adding Kid Icarus soundtracks to Nintendo Music. Wings, bows, and divine quests. Heavenly, huh?

And then there’s Hyrule Warriors sneaking into the ‘Creator’s Voice’. Epic battles from Hyrule’s past? Say less. Should be a blast.

The cherry on top? Alarmo is making mornings bearable with Animal Crossing themes. Wake up on an island – in spirit, at least. No snooze now.

Also, there’s more new stuff this week – but that list is long enough already. Seriously, what’s everyone playing first?
