Especially after last week's reveal of Rotom's DJ and the reveal of high reviews due to slamming the Kanto button for about the twenty trillionth time, the big game of the week is of course Pokemon Pokopia. However, as someone who was already wary about a crafting game and immediately turned off by another round of Rediscover Kanto, I'm going to show my love to the Canadian content in Scott Pilgrim EX as the Switch 2 game of the week.

The original Switch's anniversary (happy 9th) is met with a Scott Pilgrim, a Last Ninja compilation, and for some reason... a Switch version of bloody POKER NIGHT AT THE INVENTORY, the only poker game to feature references to The Rain-Slicked Precipice of Darkness.

THINGS WE MISSED LAST WEEK: Balatro got a Switch 2 release, and I have to emphasize that this is not a Switch 2 EDITION since it starts a new save. However, you do get it no cost in compensation.

IS THE EGGCONSOLE GAME PLAYABLE IN ENGLISH: I'll defer to the eShop description that says "absolutely not" by way of "all text in the game is in Japanese".
