NintendoLend me a game, mate.
Physical games are incredibly convenient, right? Yes, the act of manually switching out your Switch cartridges whenever you want to play a different game isn’t convenient, but physical games allow you to swap between consoles at the drop of a hat and lend your games to family and friends.
Digital games didn’t use to afford such luxuries, but Nintendo released a Switch update on 30th April 2025 that added Nintendo Virtual Game Cards, GameShare, and a few more bits and bobs.

Turtles fans after something sweet for the shelf will want to keep an eye out for this one, as Super Evil Megacorp has today announced that the Hades-inspired roguelike Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is going physical.

NintendoGo on then, just one more run.
When Astral Ascent arrived on Switch in 2023, we called it “Probably the best roguelike since Hades“, and we weren’t lying, it’s awesome. Well, soon enough, the run-based action will be getting even awesome-er with its ver. 2.0 launch and the arrival of a new DLC pack, ‘The Outer Reaches’.
The additions are coming thick and fast thanks to this duo. The free ver. 2.0 update adds bonus rooms for build-enhancing perks and a new ‘Imprint’ magic system for even more spell customisation. Meanwhile, the ‘Outer Reaches’ DLC adds four new worlds for you to explore, doubling the size of the base game, new enemies and exploration mechanics, and a fresh boss fight against a familiar face.

NintendoDevilishly good.
Gun recoil (or kickback) has often been viewed as a negative in gaming; something that, through the application of unlockable perks, can be lessened or even eliminated entirely. Yet with Shotgun Cop Man, recoil is fundamental to both combat and traversal.
Created by Swedish developer DeadToast Entertainment (Victor Ågren), Shotgun Cop Man is, quite simply, the studio’s most accomplished work so far. It’s a more back-to-basics affair compared to My Friend Pedro, but the resulting gameplay is just as frenetic and satisfying as anything you might find in Super Meat Boy or Celeste.
