Onto one of the most original games on the Switch, and something that's just pure Nintendo. It's true Snipperclips was actually made by a tiny indie studio (SFB Games) comprised of two people, Tom and Adam Vian, yet Nintendo saw how perfectly the concept would work for drop-in local multiplayer, and published it accordingly.

Playing as a puzzle game were you and a friend control two small pieces of paper, you'll need to solve a variety of scenarios by overlaying yourselves into various shapes, before committing to 'cutting' each other and letting the physics engine do the rest. This means creating makeshift ramps to launch a ball across a level, perhaps slicing yourself into a holding device to carry something, or just overlaying onto each other to match a specific shape.

It's all very cute, and it's all supremely fun - especially when played with a likeminded gamer. The Switch is making its case for couch co-op being truly immortal, and games like Snipperclips hammer that home better than most.
