Hello gentle readers, and welcome to the SwitchArcade Round-Up for March 12th, 2020. Well, the ESA has ripped off the proverbial Band-Aid and cancelled E3 for this year, so we’ll have to see how everyone chooses to distribute their announcements in light of that. Aside from that admittedly major event, there isn’t a whole lot to talk about in the world of Switch news today. So how about we just get right to the new releases and sales, eh" Let’s go!
New Releases

Remember the 1980s" Well, now there’s a video game that draws inspiration from that most unloved of decades! Neon City Riders is a top-down action game that, in spite of its unconventional viewing angle, feels a lot like a traditional beat-em-up in a lot of ways. As my sass at the beginning of the paragraph indicated, there’s a fair bit of 1980s and 1990s nostalgia baked in here, right down to the main character being a guy named Rick who puts on a goalie mask and gains super powers. Some light adventure elements round things out. On its face, it seems like a pretty good game but I’ll have to give it more time before I can say if it’s more than that.
