The Nintendo Switch eShop is a disaster. That’s something we can all agree on. It’s difficult to navigate, unintuitive, filled with games of more than questionable quality, and on top of that, it’s incredibly slow<\/strong>. There are many reasons why it’s like this, but there is a feeling that Nintendo should do better. Both because other companies do it better, and because they themselves have done it better in the past. And among those who think this way is Nintendo Life.<\/p>\n\n\n

In anticipation of the Nintendo Switch 2<\/a>, which at the time of writing this article has not yet been presented (and we hope it has been by the time it is finally published), they have decided to do the work that Nintendo doesn’t seem willing to do<\/strong>. A better version of the Switch store. And in just one week, they have created the first version of what they have called Better eShop<\/a>. A better and more functional version of the official Nintendo Switch store.<\/p>\n\n

Better eShop, a better version of the Switch store?<\/h2>\n\n\n

The main purpose of this store is to make the Switch store much more usable than it is today. Which, in their opinion, is not very difficult. To achieve this, they have focused on six particular features that make it stand out from the Nintendo store<\/strong>. Although not all of them are improvements over it.<\/p>\n\n\n

The first of these are customizable filters for the store. Several of them are automatically adjusted to remove anything they consider spam and not legitimate video games<\/strong>, adding a report button to filter them for all players if there are any that slip under their radar. Another of these features is that they have added Nintendo Life reviews accessible on each game’s page, and it is now possible to write user reviews between 50 and 250 words, with a rating, in addition to adding games to a system collection. All of this is optimized to work faster, both on desktop and mobile.<\/p>\n\n\n

Among the features that are not in themselves either improvements or substantial additions are the night mode, the inclusion of music, and the Nintendo store’s discovery algorithm as best as they could. Among the missing features is the ability to purchase multiple games at once<\/strong>, having to buy them one by one, but it is something they are working on while gathering feedback from players on this first version of the project.<\/p>\n\n\n
