There`s never been a better time to be a Nintendo Switch owner, because not only is the console a gateway to a library of excellent first-party titles, but the list of killer indies on the Eshop grows by the week. Better yet, those games tend to go on sale often. This week`s Nintendo Switch Eshop sale features a fantastic selection of mostly indie games for cheap. Let`s take a look.At $20, the beloved--and exceedingly dark--roguelike game The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ is half off this week. In it, you play as a boy whose mom goes nuts, so he retreats to the cellar, which is filled with monsters he has to fight using his tears. Yeah, it`s grim.The Metroid-style game Cave Story+ is on sale for $15. If you think you have the reflexes to handle a bullet-hell shooter, Ikaruga is always a good choice, especially on sale for $10. For a game in the vein of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past, you can pick up Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas, also $10.Velocity 2X is an excellent sci-fi game that`s all about speed and collectibles; it`s on sale for $16. And the gravity-manipulating game VVVVVV might not look like much thanks to its Atari-era graphics, but it`s a lot of fun to play if you`re into tricky precision platforming.A number of other Switch, Nintendo 3DS, and Wii U games are on sale on the Eshop this week as well. You can find the full list here.Airmail -- $12The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ -- $20Cartoon Network: Battle Crashers -- $15Cave Story+ -- $15The End is Nigh -- $5Hand of Fate 2 -- $24Ikaruga -- $10Ittle Dew 2+ -- $15Lost Sea -- $7Mutant Mudds Collection -- $7.50Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas -- $10Shape of the World -- $12Tiny Barbarian DX -- $10Velocity 2X -- $16VVVVVV -- $5Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles -- $24
