Nintendo has officially refreshed the Japanese Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 eShop release schedule for the week of April 9, 2026, promising a packed lineup of new digital downloads for fans across both platforms.

The latest update to the Japanese digital storefront showcases Nintendo’s ongoing commitment to supporting both established publishers and emerging developers.
The highlight of the new schedule is the debut of Dosa Divas, set to become available for download on both the Nintendo Switch and the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 starting April 14, 2026.
Dosa Divas leads a set of releases designed to offer variety and new experiences to long-time fans and first-time players alike.
