Nintendo shared new data this week revealing the top 20 best-selling games on the Japanese Switch 2 and Switch eShops for August 2025.

Worth noting that on Nintendo Switch, there are three different entries for Super Robot Wars Y in the top ten.
The full lineup of Japan’s best-selling games on the Switch 2 and Switch eShops for August 2025 is as follows:
A closer look at the Switch 2 Pro Controller and why it’s one of Nintendo’s best
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch 2 | 0 comments
I’m maybe a little bit late here – when I play my Nintendo Switch and Switch 2, I do so almost entirely in handheld mode. Portability and versatility are very important in my opinion, but there’s one aspect of the Nintendo 2 that ensures I play it docked at least every once in a while: the Pro Controller. Big price tag aside, it’s a big upgrade over the original Nintendo Switch Pro Controller and an infinitely better option for playing in docked mode than the standard Joy-Con 2 option.
This is how Xenoblade Chronicles X connects to the numbered trilogy
Posted on 3 weeks ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
A few months ago (and before the release of the Definitive Edition), we made a few guesses on how Xenoblade Chronicles X could connect to the numbered Xenoblade Chronicles games. Of course, every single one of our theories was dead wrong – the actual answer is far, far more complicated than that.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition is an extremely long game, and it’ll probably take you at least 80 hours to see its new ending. If you don’t have that kind of time to commit but still want to know how Xenoblade X relates to the overall series, we’ve written a plot summary of the major new chapter for the Nintendo Switch version. We feel that now’s a good time for this as we’re a few months removed from launch. It’s full of spoilers, of course, so you might want to bookmark this post and come back later if you’re trying to avoid them for now. We’ll be covering this game as well as the entire numbered trilogy, so keep that in mind before you continue. It’s virtually impossible to sum up the entirety of Xenoblade X’s new chapter in just a few paragraphs, but this is for true fans of the series.
