Side-scroll into this week’s Nintendo eShop update, which includes several new games for the Nintendo Switch…
Inti Creates originally released Azure Striker Gunvolt and Azure Striker Gunvolt 2 on the 3DS, and now the side-scrolling platformers have made their way to the Switch in a single package. The Azure Striker Gunvolt: Striker Pack includes higher resolution graphics, improved framerates, HD Rumble support, Pro Controller support, and all previously-released downloadable content.
Looking further out, WB Games will release Lego Worlds for the Switch on Tuesday. Players will get the chance to rebuild the world in a Minecraft-like sandbox made entirely out of Lego bricks.
Finally, Switch owners will be able to step up to the plate in RBI Baseball 2017 on Tuesday. RBI Baseball 2017 will feature 30 authentic ballparks and advanced stat tracking in a retro-styled package.
You can learn more about all of these games (and a few other new releases) after the break.
