Fortnite, Wargroove, and Final Fantasy 9 Top Nintendo eShop Charts For February

“Advance Wars, but with a dog” is an undeniably appealing proposition.

Nintendo has, as it usually does, shared on the Nintendo Switch news app, the charts for the most downloaded games on the Nintendo eShop for the month of February, and there’s a fair few surprises here, alongside some games doing as you might expect.

First off—yes, Fortnite was the most downloaded game for the month of February. As it always is. However, from here, things get interesting. Wargroove was second place, with the shadow-dropped Final Fantasy 9 coming in third, and starting the regime of PlayStation Final Fantasy games on Nintendo consoles in style. Super Smash Bros. Ultimate surged to fourth place, ahead of even New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe, which launched in January, and is now in sixth place.

Usual indie darlings Hollow Knight, Undertale, and Stardew Valley continued to perform strongly, as did third party games such as Diablo 3 and Civilization 6. You can check out the full charts for yourself below.
