Nintendo eShop Releases: May 8, 2025 News

Okay, so let’s dive into this weird mix of gaming chaos, where we sometimes wander into side streets and cul-de-sacs of randomness.

Right off, we missed out on Super Xevious, tucked away in some dusty archives. Why? Didn’t even realize it was a thing until now. But here’s the deal — over in Japan, there’s hype for some remake of Tokimeki Memorial. Now, before you roll your eyes, it’s apparently a big deal for gamers there. Yet, something shinier could pop up on the radar with a Switch 1 Direct, which might make High on Life the hot ticket of the week. Picture it: a shooter helmed by the Rick and Morty guy. Yeah, that guy. Scandal baggage included.

Now, let’s talk about something else. Spiritfall drops on Friday along with some overpriced EggConsole PC-98 upgrade with Rune Worth. Honestly, the non-Japanese speaking folks will just stare blankly at it. Oh, and over in Europe, we’re peeking at early sales on Switch 2 games. First hit? Hitman: World of Assassination. Might make a good trivia answer someday.

Alright, we’ve hit North America with game prices that seem to think inflation is a myth. Highlights? More like lowlights, but here we go:

– High on Life hits for $39.99, and you’ll need that much luck to enjoy a pixel of it.
– All these quirky titles like Ship Graveyard Simulator 2, and Captain Blood make you wonder who comes up with this stuff. Like, were they just throwing darts at a wall of random words?

And speaking of randomness, how about games like Pet The Pup At The Party and Cat & Rabbit Pizza Farming? These don’t even sound real. But yep, they are. Hope you like farming with rabbits or whatever.

Europe’s not much different, with Spiritfall making an entrance at the end of the week. And let’s be real for a sec—how serious can the titles Date With A Psycho Killer Girl or Truck Simulator 25 really be?

Anyway — no, wait, where was I? Oh yeah, backtracking just a smidge—let’s bring it home with a global tour. Over in Japan, Tokimeki Memorial looks like it’s cashing in nostalgia chips. Meanwhile, games like Moe Waifu H Push Blocks sound… intriguingly bizarre?

Are we enlightened yet? Who knows. But if you needed a chaotic gaming roundup, I think we nailed it. And if not, there’s always next week’s dose of madness.
