On the shortest day of the year up North, the sun will set by the time you download everything.

'twas four days before Christmas and the author wonders how much Switch memory he has left. Another twenty games are dropping on Switch in North America this week, so let's run down the highlights: Mom Hid My Game (also on New 3DS) is a riot, we have the sequel to Max and the Magic Marker finally hitting a Nintendo system, and the long-awaited Next Penelope is racing into the Switch this week.

Other intriguing options include a lot of adventure titles (The Coma: Recut, Crawl, Blossom Tales) and a nice compilation of Tiny Troopers games. The puzzle genre is also well represented with Puzzle Box Maker on Switch (featuring some indie cameos) and the eighth Picross e title on 3DS. In the retro front, the NeoGeo game of the week is Pulstar but the highlight for most will be Nintendo's contribution in Vs. Super Mario Bros.

Europe's week is even more insane thanks to a couple of fashionably late recruits (Enter the Gungeon and Floor Kids) plus first crack at a game I debated backing on Kickstarter during a NWR telethon (2013) in Guns, Gore and Cannoli. Japan is also loaded up including a free-to-start title based on a Japanese board game and first crack at the return of Atelier games to the Nintendo family.

And on behalf of everyone here have a happy holidays, and we'll see you back here for... oh, about a dozen or so games next week to close 2017 out.
