Eshop

Nintendo has shared an updated list of Europe's most-downloaded Switch eShop games, revealing which titles were the most popular during August 2021.

Minecraft continues to sell incredibly well on the platform, moving up into first place this time around. It overtakes last month's number one The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD to get there, also fending off the threat of the similarly popular Among Us.

You can check out the full list below. It's based on the number of Nintendo eShop downloads (so no physical sales) in European territories during the whole month:


  1. Minecraft
  2. Among Us
  3. The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword HD
  4. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
  5. Slime Rancher: Plortable Edition
  6. Quake
  7. Stardew Valley
  8. ISLANDERS Console Edition
  9. Animal Crossing: New Horizons
  10. Pokémon Sword
  11. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury
  12. Hades
  13. Baldo: The Guardian Owls
  14. Super Mario Party
  15. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles
