Nintendo Switch launch titles Binding of Isaac
Nintendo Switch launch games lineup has been given a boost with the news that Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ will be available on the March 3 release date.
This means that six games have now been announced for the Nintendo Switch launch in March.
"By now you’ve hopefully heard that The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ is coming to Nintendo Switch in retail form. What does it mean?" reads a Binding of Isaac blog post.
"It means that there is more than just The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild on launch.
"Afterbirth+ will be available at retail as well as on the Nintendo eShop for $39.99 and will include Rebirth, Afterbirth and Afterbirth+ packed together as one game."
There's no word on a UK release date at the time of writing, and there's no sign of the game on Amazon.
Publisher Nicalis had previously tweeted about a European retail release for the game, so fingers crossed it lands on March 3.
"Who wants The Binding of Isaac: Afterbirth+ available for Nintendo Switch physical/retail in Europe? RT."

Nintendo reveals the mystery NX handheld/console hybrid
Nintendo Switch is available from March 3, complete with a £280 price tag. UK customers can pre-order the new Nintendo console now.
Blurring the line between handheld and home console, the screen includes capacitive multi-touch capabilities for compatible games, while battery life can last for more than six hours, but will vary depending on the software and usage conditions.
For example, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild can be played for roughly three hours on a single charge. While away from home, Nintendo Switch can be charged by plugging the AC adapter into the console’s USB Type-C connector.
The console will also boast 32GB of internal storage, this can be expanded using a microSDXC card, while The “game cards” drop into a slot at the top of the console.
The Joy-Cons, meanwhile, include an accelerometer and gyroscope motion sensor in both sets, making independent left and right motion control possible.
