We’re approaching the fall season very quickly, and that means it’s time for another dose of our eShop Selects!

While August may have been a quiet month for Nintendo first-party titles (save one little pink puffball who we’ll be getting to in a moment), our eShop wallets have been crying at just how many gems have snuck onto the online store. You’ve probably noticed our reviews page has been filling up pretty nicely — and that’s going to continue.

Così, after a summer of fun, what are the best of the best from August? Primo, let’s talk about some games that are equally deserving of a mention.

Menzioni d'onore:

You know that, when there are three 9/10 in the honourable mentions list, it’s been a good month. There are just too many excellent surprises that we can’t crown them all. Even Kirby isn’t immune to missing out on a podium position! Sorry Kirbs, at least you get to eat lots of cake and strawberries?

Shin Chan: Io e il professore in vacanza estiva - Il viaggio senza fine di sette giorni- (Cambia eShop)

Shin Chan: Io e il professore in vacanza estiva - Il viaggio senza fine di sette giorni- (Cambia eShop)

Editore: Neos / Sviluppatore: Millennium Kitchen

Data di rilascio: 11gio agosto 2022 (USA) / 11gio agosto 2022 (Regno Unito/UE)

It happened! We infine got a Mio Summer Vacation game in the West. E, better still, it’s really rather lovely. Shin-chan’s irreverent humour and quirky characters blend perfectly with Millennium Kitchen’s Boku no Natsuyasumi serie, and the result of that is the cosy Shin Chan: Io e il professore in vacanza estiva - Il viaggio senza fine di sette giorni-.

This game is gorgeous, with hand-painted scenery and beautiful anime-style visuals that perfectly capture the Shin-chan style. It’s as bizarre as it is charming, and given the ridiculous antics you can get up to, the chaotic kiddy imagination fits incredibly well with the more carefree gameplay. It’s like a true summer picnic in video game form.

Maledetto al golf (Cambia eShop)

Maledetto al golf (Cambia eShop)

Editore: Tonante / Sviluppatore: Chuhai Labs

Data di rilascio: 18gio agosto 2022 (USA) / 18gio agosto 2022 (Regno Unito/UE)

Golf-like no longer meansit’s like or similar to gold— it means golfing roguelike thanks to Chuhai Labsfabulous Maledetto al golf. It may look cute and quirky, but make no mistake, this is one rough swing with a bunker full of surprises. We bet Zagreus thought about using golf to escape from the underworld in Ade.

Our favourite thing about this game is just how creative it is. The different course designs, the ball types, the traps and obstacles — there’s an endless gauntlet of possibilities waiting for your undead golfer. It’s so addictive that we wondered if we even wanted to escape.

If you haven’t yet teed off, or even if you have, find out why this one isn’t a bogey in la nostra recensione.

Culto dell'Agnello (Cambia eShop)

Culto dell'Agnello (Cambia eShop)

Editore: Ritorno digitale / Sviluppatore: Mostro massiccio

Data di rilascio: 11gio agosto 2022 (USA) / 11gio agosto 2022 (Regno Unito/UE)

We’ve banded around the phrase ‘evil Animal Crossingwhen talking about Massive Monster’s Culto dell'Agnello, but the combination of cuddly creatures, bloodlust, and occult worship means, bene… this is baa-rilliant (mi dispiace).

Another brilliant twist on the roguelike genre, part of your time will be spent plundering dungeons and killing evil gods, while the rest will be spent raising and looking after your cult so they can help with your bidding. Despite looking cute in a very strange way, it’s actually pretty stressful, and there are multiple ways your cult members can die. We may have chuckled a few times at the creativity on show here.

Have you joined the cult of Nintendo Life yet and embraced your evil jumbuck side? Regardless of whether you have or not, you should read la nostra brillante recensione.

< Nintendo Life eShop seleziona – Luglio 2022


Come decidiamo il nostro eShop Seleziona i primi tre: Quando arriviamo alla fine di ogni mese, lo staff di Nintendo Life vota i propri titoli preferiti da un elenco di giochi selezionati dalla redazione.
