Shortly after I bought my Nintendo Switch, I caught wind of the trend of ultra cheap games on the eShop (shout-out to our very own Russ Lyman for making a video on these which was one of the things that initially got me into them). Since then, I've been adding about ten bucks to my account every few months and checking the eShop weekly to see what games are on sale for under one US dollar. I have many games on my Switch now. Make no mistake, many of them are not very good, but the low risk and potentially high reward have yielded some diamonds in the rough that I have thoroughly enjoyed. Here are a few of them.

Do you like Galaga? Do you like Space Invaders? Do you like Gorf? What about Phoenix? If you like blasting alien baddies in 8-bits, with simple, arcade style and fun, then boy, have I got a game for you! Switch 'N' Shoot, on the Nintendo Switch, might just scratch that old school arcade shooter itch you've been nursing.

A few months back, a request was made to split out the Virtual Consoles for Wii, Wii U and 3DS. The change was made then, but the database was never filled out and properly split from the eShop.
In the past couple days, I've filled out the Nintendo 3DS Virtual Console (and Nintendo Wii U Virtual Console, I think) for North America. What impact does this have on you? Well, besides suddenly having games moved around in your collection, you may have suddenly lost a few items from your collection due to the entries being ambiguous in the Nintendo eShop - after all, PAC-MAN and Donkey Kong have multiple releases for 3DS alone for Game Boy and Nintendo NES.
Please check and update your collections accordingly. Also, in some of the old entries, there were Part #s filled out for some of the Ambassador titles. If anyone can tell me how these Part #s were obtained, or can fill out the entries, it would be greatly appreciated!
There may still be some shuffling around the eShop entries, but for the most part I believe the moves are done. I'll be entering the rest of the VC entries here within the next week, including Europe, Australia and Japan, so bear with me while this is completed.
