I can vouch for a few of the titles above. Cruisin' Blast is definitely a blast. It's an arcade racer that has no interest in sending you through a track at anything other than extremely high speeds. It's also well-optimized for the Switch, with smooth animation and responsive controls. My one complaint is the game can go a little overboard with the neon day-glo colors.
For those of you who like fast action and tile-based puzzle games, I recommend Shovel Knight: Pocket Dungeon. Each level has you moving around a square dungeon as tiles (representing obstacles, enemies, and items) fall from above. You can grab items and attack enemies while maintaining your health bar. Every time you move, the blocks around you move, but they also fall on their own if you wait, so it's an interesting blend of strategy and action. The learning curve is steep, so early play sessions can be frustrating, but after a while it clicks and becomes the perfect game for "just one more run."
