The latest UK software sales chart for the week ending November 2, 2024 is now available.

Publisher OverGamez and developer Nezon Production are readying a Nintendo Switch version of Shieldwall, it’s been announced. The game is expected sometime this month on the console.
Shieldwall is a third-person tactical battle simulator with strategy elements. The title initially launched on PC to a strong reception, and now it’s bound for consoles.

As fans continue to wonder when Nintendo will pull back the curtain on Switch 2, we have reconfirmation that an announcement is still happening this fiscal year.
President Shuntaro Furukawa said today that there’s been “no change” regarding the timeline. That means we should be hearing something by the end of March 2025. However, it remains to be seen when the system will actually launch.
Based on the latest financial data from Nintendo, it turns out that sales of the Nintendo Switch version of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door have already surpassed the original GameCube release.
Total sales of the GameCube edition stand at 1.91 million units. To compare, on Nintendo Switch, the game managed to hit 1.94 million copies already. That number is based on data collected through September 30, 2024, meaning that the feat was accomplished in only four months.
Alongside Nintendo’s financial results for November 2024, as usual, the company put out its latest release schedule. The graphic highlights upcoming Switch games the company will be publishing.
Xenoblade Chronicles X: Definitive Edition, which was a surprise announcement last week, now appears on the schedule. Other games like Metroid Prime 4 are also included. The calendar is certainly smaller than it used to be – it doesn’t help that third-party games are no longer listed which is something that Nintendo often did in the past.
