Week 44 of 2021 turns out to be quite a packed week for the Nintendo eShop. There's something out there for everyone. Ubisoft's annual Just Dance 2022 is out, getting you to move those hips to a plethora of new tunes. The Smurfs - Mission Vileaf sets you off onto an adventure with the little blue creatures, and may be a fun experience for the younger ones.
Certainly not for youngsters is World War Z, an online co-op zombie game that requires you to take down giant hordes of zombies in cities all over the world. Finally, Animal Crossing's DLC Happy Home Paradise is now available, as a separate DLC download or included in the Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack.
