icymi, buying a digital copy of a $60 Switch game (like, say, Animal Crossing) gives you enough gold points to freely redeem at least one of the games that are on sale for pennies on the eShop right now—here are my recommendations based on a quick scan, share yours! (thread)
SubaraCity, a cross between a city-builder and a Threes-style puzzle game, made by a programmer on a ton of puzzle games going back decades, including the cult arcade game Puzzle Star Sweep https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/subaracity-switch/
Toki Tori 1 & 2 are both super cheap—a lot of ppl played the original years ago but skipped the much better sequel, which adopted interconnected map gated only by the player's ability to cleverly apply their deceptively basic tools https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/toki-tori-switch https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/toki-tori-2-nintendo-switch-edition-switch
Chameleon, a hex-based versus puzzle game based on a PC-98 game called The 7 Colors, itself a conversion of an Amiga game which was in turn derived from a Russian DOS game called Filler—this version originated on NAOMI, u may have played the DS or PSP port https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/chameleon-switch/
Monkey King: Master of the Clouds, a port of the arcade game Chuuka Taisen/Cloud Master, which a lot of people know by the Master System port—this port's nothing special but I'm guessing a lot of people didn't even know it existed, so here ya go https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/monkey-king-master-of-the-clouds-switch/
Night Trap and Double Switch are both $3 each, which is about as expensive as they ought to be

Gunhouse is most commonly described as a tile-matching tower defense game, and I guess that's as good a description as any... it reminds me a little of Might & Magic, Clash of Heroes, if that means anything to anyone https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/gunhouse-switch
y'all know Downwell, right? you probably own it too, but here's another chance to get it on Switch & play it with your Flip Grip or whatever
(since making Downwell, the designer joined & subsequently quit Nintendo, where he worked on Ring Fit Adventures) https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/downwell-switch/
