Are Switch 2 chips already being shipped?

Hello, Chris here, dropping in with your latest Nintendo digest — it’s Switch Weekly #395 .

I’m heading off to Germany tomorrow to attend Gamescom — sadly Nintendo don’t seem to have much of a presence their this year, but I’m sure there will still be plenty worth seeing that’s of interest to us all — I’ll report back next week. I’m actually meeting my buddy Kevin at the show, and we’ll be covering it together, more broadly, for overkill (which is another place you can find my work) — If you fancy keeping up with what we’re doing, we’re going to be putting out a daily Gamescom newsletter for the week of the show, bringing together some key news, highlights, and more.

Last week I asked for some reader reccomendations — Switch games that may have flown under the radar, or titles worth revisiting from the now vast eShop library. Many thanks to all of you who reached out! Let me highlight three that came in: Kolbe suggests that skateboarding platformer OlliOlli World deserves more love (agreed), Lloyd writes in to say that they “highly recommend” Dros , a diorama puzzle action game, and Justin suggested the award-winning Knights & Bikes , a fun couch co-op experience with a great look, that’s a fun one to play with youger gamers. I love hearing from you about what games you love, and what you are playing — so always know you can hit reply to this email if you have anything to say.

Right, there’s just over 20 games coming out next week — though not a great deal really caught my eye today. The full list, as ever, is below for you to peruse — maybe something will grab you?

That’s a wrap from me. Catch you next time, post-Gamescom. Auf wiedersehen!
