There’s a lot of stuff hitting this week for Nintendo Switch. Like, a lot. The headline titles are just half the story really, as the Download is loaded from top to bottom. Granted though, those spotlight games are some big names.

For starters, there’s Rogue Legacy 2, which has been in the works for some time on Switch. Past that, there’s also the long-awaited arrival of Arigami 2. Want more? How about Tactics Ogre: Reborn, Atari 50: The Anniversary Collection, Garfield Lasagna Party, Jurassic World: Aftermath Collection, NeoGeo Pocket Color Selection 2, and a load more.

There’s almost something for everyone too, as a few indie puzzlers land as well.
