Either way, it's great that you can upload your Switch and catch more games for less money, but we can argue that things are getting more and more controlled. We recently browsed the eShop ourselves in the hope of finding quirky, fun, cheap games, and found that currently 64 titles are offered for less than a dollar in the US. Same story in Europe, too – a visit to the UK's eShop reveals 49 games available for less than £ 1.
A few of these appear to be articles that are priced permanently; Soccerball, for example, has been priced at $ 0.99 which is good enough. For the most part, they are 90% discounted games. That's not an oversimplification, though – most 90% of games are closed.

Or that would have been unnecessarily complicated, wasn't it?
It also leaves us an interesting topic of debate: should we celebrate the fact that, as gamers, we have access to many games at low cost, or does this just highlight the issues faced by developers and players as the result of the eShop design and the large number of free games each week? We'll help you put that in your comments.
