As anticipation builds for a range of new Nintendo Switch releases, recent updates to the Nintendo eShop across North America, Europe, and Japan have shed light on download file sizes for several highly awaited games.

This information is crucial for Nintendo Switch owners keen on managing their system storage and preparing for digital purchases ahead of major launches.

Upcoming titles such as Pokémon Legends: Z-A and Double Dragon Revive are among the prominent games featured in these new listings, alongside a diverse selection of indie and third-party releases.

The Switch eShop reveals that Double Dragon Revive requires 4.0GB of space.

Fans of retro gaming and action titles will appreciate knowing the game's digital footprint ahead of launch, ensuring they can allocate the necessary storage.
