Nintendo Download: The Ol’ 1-2 Switcheroo

Get ready to party down, as Everybody 1-2 Switch arrives this week, along with Tomb Raider, AEW: Fight Forever, Enclave HD, and Ghost Trick.

Ev-re-bo-dy-1-2-Switch

Has Everybody 1-2 Switch become a meme at this point? Kinda? Sorta? Eh, either way, the party game has finally landed for the Switch, offering prospective players the ability to party down in groups of 2-100, with host of the festivities, Horace the horse-man.

If you’re looking for something more traditional though, the Switch’s release calendar has you covered there as well. This week also sees the arrival of the Lara Croft Collection, which includes both of the isometric Tomb Raider titles, and the return of the cult classic Ghost Trick, with Phantom Detective.

Old school fans will want to check out the new Sega Genesis offerings on the Expansion Pack membership too, plus Enclave HD, which brings that early 2K’s actioner back for a new generation. And finally, don’t forget that the long awaited wrestling title AEW: Fight Forever has hit as well. As the sole big-name, modern wrestling title on the console, that one is of particular note.
