PSA there's a big sale on the eshop until April 27. Quite a few first-party titles with a 33% discount and others with bigger discounts. I picked up Portal 1 & 2 for about £3, it really is good.

I also discovered https://www.dekudeals.com/ recently - it tracks prices over time so you can see how good the current discount is and physical/digital from different retailers.

I've got Dark Souls and Sniper Elite 2. Both games seem decent so far.

Deku Deals is great. Love the site! Using it since it launched.

I got couple of games in previous sale, that was in start of April, got AI: Somnium Files and The Hong Kong Massacre (about $4 or so), won't be getting anything until I am done with them (which won't happen until I finish Xenoblade Chronicles X in a few months).

Portal is great, have fun!

Will probably get Guns of Fury which is a Metal Slug-inspired Metroidvania, I have a couple long (12h+) flights coming next two weeks and I'd like to have a platformer as a side-game. Blasphemous is another option on a deep discount, but given people compare it to Hollow Knight in difficulty it's probably better to leave it for when I'm more relaxed at home. 😅

Also tempted to pick up The Silver Case 2425, it's a pack of two VNs from Suda 51 that I heard good things about.

Nintendo switch backward compatibility is going to be emulation, and looking potentially poor at that. Be warned.
