Sunderfolk Added to This Week’s eShop Highlights

You know, I was digging around in this week’s Nintendo eShop offerings, and man, it’s like diving into a treasure chest. First off, there’s this thing called Sunderfolk. Ever tried huddling with friends, each waving around phones like they’re wands? That’s what this game does. Turns your phone into a controller while you and your buddies get lost in some tactical RPG adventure. Think about it: you can be a Bard, a Rogue, or even a Berserker cruising through quests. It’s like Dungeons & Dragons just hugged your Switch. Seriously, why does no one talk about the joy of local co-op anymore? Maybe we got too hooked on playing solo. Just a thought.

Anyway, huge eShop sale alert! If you’re the bargain-hunting type, this might make your wallet a little lighter. Titles like Tunic, Vampire Survivors—never played it but the name’s cool—and Balatro are on the chopping block price-wise. Grab ‘em before the sale evaporates into thin air. Shoot me a line if you score anything good. Would love to hear the tales of your digital conquests.

Ah, and there’s Nintendo’s music-streaming app. Ever wonder why nobody talks about this, despite it being… well, kind of epic? Fire Emblem Engage just landed there. I’m guessing it’s got tunes that make you feel like wielding a sword amidst epic battles. Pure Nintendo’s Kirk is apparently a bit of a Fire Emblem nerd, so we’re checking in on his take during the next podcast episode. Get ready for some passionate rants—could be entertaining.

Then there’s this ever-growing pile of new games to consider. What’s on your playlist this week? Sometimes it feels like there’s almost too much choice—makes deciding a bit of a nightmare, right? Or maybe it’s a dream.

And Sunderfolk itself? Well, let’s talk about transforming game night over pizza or whatever you eat when gaming—hopefully not greasy stuff for your console’s sake. You gather your crew, and bam, your phone’s now a piece of the action. Think six different classes to choose from. Build up your virtual village, flirt with vendors (not literally, unless that’s an update), stack up rewards. Just don’t hit the next level unprepared. No one likes a naked berserker.

Speaking of classics, anyone remember Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones? Kingdom in ruins? Got to save it, of course. Strategic thinking cap on. It’s on the Game Boy Advance—now digitally reincarnated on Switch Online. And if your soldiers fall in battle, they’re gone—yep, no revival spell here.

Oh, for the music lovers, there’s this app—Nintendo Music. You delve into epic game soundtracks and pretend you’re part of the saga. Fire Emblem Engage is now there too, ready to whisk you off your feet. Something about those battle beats from Elyos gets me every time. I’d say give it a listen if you’re into game soundtracks. Or even if you’re not. Who knows, you might discover a hidden passion.

Update 1.6.0 for F-ZERO 99 just dropped too. Zoom into Ace League Mirror tracks, show off color variants on your rides, and dive into the Mini World Tour event. Does anyone else get a thrill from unlocking new features? It’s like Christmas morning every time.

Almost forgot—there’s a video series called “Creator’s Voice.” They’re uncovering secrets of Hogwarts Legacy. Maybe you’re into the behind-the-scenes magic. And who wouldn’t be? Hogwarts coming to life on a tiny console? Color me intrigued.

Oh, and don’t snooze on the Partner Spotlight Sale. Tick-tock, time’s running out. Games are slashed up to half-price till April 27 at midnight. Such deals usually don’t hang around long. Go get your piece of gaming history while you can.

So, any finds calling your name this week? Get playing, or at least make a list—sometimes deciding is half the fun. Or not. Choices, choices.
