With enough of a muted release to fly under my radar Debris Infinity, an abstract twin-stick shooter with vector graphics, launched on the Nintendo Switch on September 21st.
Debris Infinity is also available on Steam (since late last year), it looks spectacular.

Strikers 1945 Plus and 1999 headed to home consoles
Psikyo's revered Strikers series gets two new entries ported to home consoles.
Strikers 1945 Plus is coming to Xbox One, PS4 and Nintendo Switch from Hamster in their ACA series. It has been available for iOS and the Sony PSP in the past.
Strikers 1999 is coming from ZeroDiv and has only been confirmed as an upcoming title for Switch so far. This is the first appearance of this particular Strikers game on any home console, only being ported to Android before.

Metal Slug reboot seems to be in the cards
SNK, the epic company behind the Metal Slug series, is looking into rebooting (or reviving) Metal Slug and is curious to find out what fans want.
The biggest hiccup seem to be one-hit deaths. One-hit deaths is integral to so many older hardcore game experiences and to me this fits the game style.
It will be interesting to see which way Kraut Buster from NG:DEV goes regarding this mechanic since the game looks like a re-skinned Metal Slug (this is not a bad thing!).
With the other Metal Slug news being that a VR variant is coming, I think SNK is discussing the future of the franchise and not the VR game.
