Think that the Nintendo Switch isn't seeing enough additions to its game library? You'd best think again, as a whole six pack for titles have joined the line-up, as part of the company's weekly update for the system. This includes a Neo-Geo classic, along with the latest entry in a brawling franchise.

So let's run down the six games that are featured in this week's update. It's time to get your old-school on!

Blue's Journey- First up is a platforming classic from the Neo-Geo days, a side-scrolling adventure where you'll be able to work your way through a number of stages, trying to rescue the world from the dangerous Daruma tribe. The game features a variety of weapons, as well as two-player support, so a friend can join in the fun. You can grab this right now for $7.99.

Double Dragon IV- Originally released for PlayStation 4 and PC earlier this year, Double Dragon IV is a throwback title with graphics from the 8-bit era, and plenty of fighting moves to kick butt with. The game also features a fun versus mode, where you can unlock characters to pit against one another however you see fit. You can grab this for $6.99.

Also available this week are The Bridge, a neat puzzle game where you use striking logic to solve things ($10); Lichtspeer: Double Speer Edition, a fun "arcade lightspear-throwing simulator" ($10); the awesome twin-stick shooter/RPG NeuroVoider ($14); and the puzzle game Physical Contact: 2048 ($5).

These titles add a lot of variety to the system, along with both Lego Worlds and RBI Baseball 17, which became available for the console earlier in the week. That's eight different titles that you can check out right now while you wait for the next big blockbusters to arrive. We definitely recommend Blue's Journey, and Double Dragon IV delivers some decent kicks for the price, despite its heightened difficulty settings. Bring a friend for that one.

We'll likely be seeing more Switch games drop over the next few weeks, so be sure to check back for recaps on what's available on the system. Save some room on that memory stick!
