Nintendo has added another batch of games for the handheld console Switch on their Eshop.

A handful of new games were just released to the Nintendo Switch. While the games are not major first or third-party titles, they are sure to make Nintendo Switch owners have lots of fun in their downtime.

According to Gamespot, a total of 18 new games were launched on the Nintendo Switch during the past week, including "Mom Hid My Game." The game is also available on iOS devices, as well as for the Nintendo 3DS, and there, it is titled "Hidden My Game By Mom."

"Tiny Metal" is now also available for the Switch. "Tiny Metal" draws its inspiration from the 2001 Game Boy Advance strategy, turn-based game "Advance Wars," which lets players command sea, land, and air units to attack their foes.

"Blossom Tales: The Sleeping King" is also now available on for the Switch. The two-dimensional (2D) adventure game is inspired "The Legend of Zelda" series. The racing and shooting game "The Next Penelope," as well as the puzzle game "Puzzle Box Maker," have also been made available for the Switch.

Two brawling games were added for the Nintendo Switch as well, such as "Brawlout" and the three-dimensional (3D) game "Heart & Slash." Then, a board game titled "Tactical Mind" and the remixed version of the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) game "Mario vs. Super Mario Bros." have been added as well.

The said games were made available for the Nintendo Switch starting last Monday, Dec. 18.

In other news, the new "Pac-Man" title, "Pac-Man Championship Edition 2 Plus," is set to be released for the Switch early next year on Feb. 22, 2018. According to VideoGamer, the Switch version will have all the features and contents released on other platforms of gaming. The Switch version will, however, get an exclusive co-op feature that will let two players play the game and will enable them to perform unique co-op moves to beat the Ghosts.
