First of all, as of press time there are no eShop pages for the only relevant game coming out this week for most people in Hollow Knight: Silksong. Team Cherry has dropped some of the prices and the hit time (10:00 a.m. ET, 11:30 in Newfoundland) but we still don't know the rest of the regions, is there an upgrade, will it catch a last minute delay to get away from Silksong, crab rangoon, things of that nature. So it's in the list, but there's a few question marks.

It's a heavy Switch 2 week even beyond the game that delayed Demonschool (which I now have to play on vacation instead of medical leave) with mecha sequel Daemon x Machina: Titanic Scion, horror adventure Cronos: The New Dawn, and a Star War. Meanwhile, the original Switch has Everybody's Golf: Hot Shots (yay!), Shuten Order (kill it, ideally with fire), and Dark Deity II (maybe?)

IS THE EGGCONSOLE GAME PLAYABLE WITHOUT KNOWING JAPANESE: It's another game in the Dragon Slayer series that never got localized so far as I know, and a lot of the interface looks like hardcore kanji. So no.
