As another week draws to a close, it’s time to welcome the latest round of digital delights to hit the Nintendo Switch eShop. This week’s highlights are Mario vs. Donkey Kong, and Tomb Raider I-III Remastered.

Mario vs. Donkey Kong takes the classic Game Boy Advance title and revamps it for the Switch, with all-new graphics, modes, and levels. It seems Donkey Kong has become obsessed with collecting the new Mini Mario toys (advertising can have that effect). When the local toy shop sells out, DK infiltrates the factory and takes off with a sack of the toys for himself. Mario, naturally, steps in to save the day, leading to a game full of puzzles as he works his way through various fun worlds.

Meanwhile, Lara Croft is back! The original adventures that brought her into the gaming spotlight have returns in this collection, completely remastered. As a fun bonus, you can even switch between old-school and updated graphics. Ah, remember the days of the polygon?

There are also sales aplenty to tempt your digital wallet, with a Valentine’s Day sale for Warner Bros. and a Lunar New Year sale for Bandai Namco.

A long list of new releases awaits, so let’s get to it! Check out the full list below, and let us know which games you’ll be playing this week.
