The Switch eShop can be a dark and dreary place. The storefronts are home to some absolute gems, but a host of hustle, fake, and scam games can turn these beauties from a beacon to a needle in a haystack.
Here to prove that there are more some good games, our video producer Alex went in search of something special. To do this, he grabbed five random eShop games (the ones we didn’t review on the site) and threw them for a spin in hopes of finding a goodun. Did he succeed? Well, you’ll have to watch the video above to find out.
It’s no spoiler to say that Alex experiences the full range of eShop quality on offer in this one, and is ready to hand out a recommendation or a pass at the end of each test drive. So give it a watch (or watch the original longer flow) and see if it’s still possible to stumble upon an eShop gem.
If you’ve found an eShop delight that we at Nintendo Life have yet to check out, it might be a good recommendation for our Games We Missed series. Below you can find the latest wave of reader picks.
