The Nintendo Download: Colour Dots Connect Colour Dots

There are 39 games coming to the Nintendo Switch eShop this week. One of them is called Colour Dots Connect. Another is called Connect Colour Dots. They are two different versions of the same sort of puzzle game. Nintendo really needs to rein this nonsense in.

I generally give the long list of games Nintendo releases every week a quick glance so I can point out significant releases like Earth Defence Force: World Brothers, World’s End Club, and Wonder Boy Asha In Monster World, three great games with “world” in their titles. Sometimes, however, while working through the list, I notice things like two very similar games with very similar names releasing in the same week.

• Colour Dots Connect – Available May 28
• Connect Colour Dots: Fun Water Flow Pipe Line Art Puzzle Game

Or two horse adventure games.
