Nintendo Downloads – April 17, 2025 – News

Things we missed last week: Konami’s Gangbusters in the Archives.

This week sees the debut of the Lunar franchise on Nintendo hardware that we’ll talk about.

“But there was a DS game.”

This is the debut of the Lunar franchise on Nintendo hardware. With that settled, the other major games this week are the recently revealed puzzle duology of Monument Valley, and another Hot Rod racing game. Other things that piqued my interest going through the list: I, Robot from Atari is a Jeff Minter-developed action game, and this week’s EggConsole game is the Falcom-developed Dinosaur – so definitely not safe for the unilingual whose language isn’t Japanese.
