Disgaea 5 demo, eh? Pretty cool, I'll need to try it out. I'm really liking all these demos on the Switch so far.

Yeah I know, and there's no limitation on how many times we can try them out!

Darksiders: Warmastered Edition for Wii U, eh? Ha! You know something? I'm going to go ahead and buy that. I'm just compelled to throw money at these guys just for having the balls to not only finish this game, but actually releasing it on a deader-than-a-doornail system.

That's some fine gumption, you crazy developers/publisher!

YES! Road To Idol, finally!

On a serious note, Thumper is supposed to be really good. And the port seems phenomenal.

Playing it undocked right now and it looks really good. Plays just as well. Very strange game and quite difficult with a great sense of overcoming the challenges it throws at you. Really reminds me of BIT.TRIP Runner on steroids.

Cool. The only thing holding me back is that I kind of want to try it in VR. But I'm not sure if I'll ever buy in.
