Super Mario Party Jamboree Returns to No.

1 in Nintendo Switch eShop Charts for May 2025 The digital sales landscape for Nintendo Switch games continues to evolve, with familiar favorites and exciting new titles proving their staying power.

The official Nintendo Switch eShop charts for the week of May 17, 2025, reveal a reshuffling at the top, as Super Mario Party Jamboree reclaims the number one spot.

This marks another milestone for Nintendo’s enduring franchise, highlighting its continued appeal among Switch owners and its status as a must-have party game. Previously, Minecraft—a universal best-seller developed by Mojang Studios—had been holding the top position over recent weeks.

However, this week’s results place it in second, demonstrating Super Mario Party Jamboree’s powerful sales momentum since launch.

The sustained popularity of these titles underscores the strength of both first-party Nintendo releases and key third-party collaborations on the Nintendo Switch platform. Roundup of the Top Nintendo Switch eShop Games (Week of May 17, 2025): 1.

Pokémon Legends: Arceus A notable highlight this week comes from Fantasy Life i: The Girl Who Steals Time, developed by Level-5.

Despite its official release date still a few days away, the RPG has already climbed into the top ten based solely on pre-loads.

This early performance illustrates significant anticipation from the Switch community for Level-5’s return to the beloved Fantasy Life series. Hello Kitty Island Adventure, originally launched as an Apple Arcade exclusive and later brought to the Switch, claims the top spot in the download-only category, which measures pure digital purchases rather than combined retail and download numbers.

Popular indie and legacy titles like Stardew Valley and Hollow Knight continue to demonstrate long-tail success on the platform, contributing to the dynamic diversity of the eShop library. Reflecting on the latest chart, a Nintendo spokesperson highlighted the continued enthusiasm from Switch owners: “Our library continues to celebrate fresh experiences and classic franchises, which is reflected in these energetic eShop sales rankings.” As the Nintendo Switch eShop charts continue to showcase new releases and enduring classics, the strong performances from both established franchises like Mario and innovative newcomers like Fantasy Life i demonstrate the enduring appeal and flexibility of the Nintendo Switch platform.

With over 139 million units sold globally as of early 2025, the Nintendo Switch ecosystem remains a vital hub for both nostalgic and new-generation gamers.
