Well boys and girls, you know what day it is. Which means it’s time for another Nintendo Download! I admit it’s been a long week, and I know I need a bit of pleasant distraction. While this isn’t the longest Nintendo Download, it still has some goodies to enjoy. There’s two very different featured titles, a special franchise sale, and the usual digital fun. Let’s start with a crazy exploration RPG and some boardgames.

Nintendo Download | The Outer Worlds

I admit to not always having my finger on the pulse of big game releases. I tend to focus on indie and niche much more exclusively. That said, I had heard of The Outer Worlds. I just didn’t know much about it. I also never expected to see it on Nintendo Switch, but here we are. If you like exploring wild environments and fighting against the corporate authority, you might enjoy it. The other game is much more casual. It’s called Clubhouse Games™: 51 Worldwide Classics. It let’s you play games such as Chess and Mancala, and even race slot cars. Thankfully, it can be played online and not just locally, so you’re able to compete with others. Now let’s continue the Nintendo Download with some sales.

Nintendo Download | Outbuddies DX

Before we move onto the Game Guide, I need to mention another sale. Capcom is having a franchise sale for Resident Evil from today until June 16th. It offers up to 57% off all the mainline games available on Nintendo Switch, including the following – Resident Evil 0, Resident Evil, Resident Evil 4, Resident Evil 5 and Resident Evil 6. While you probably noticed the lack of RE 2 and 3, that’s cause those haven’t been brought over to the Switch yet. Which is probably for the best, since the Nemesis is utterly terrifying. I will say, I miss the Resident Evil Revelations games, and am not sure why they’re not included. That said, if you wanted to play some classic horror on your Switch, this might be the time to pick some games up.
