House of The Dead Overkill (2009)
This was an 100 percent Grindhouse-inspired title. The grimy presentation. An awesome narrator setting up levels. Buckets of blood and gore. House of The Dead Overkill was a surprise zombie shooter. There were enough obscenities at the time, it was even the record-books. A Wii exclusive even, a system not really famous for profanity. Grand Theft Auto 5 now holds that swearing title, so that is very telling. Deliberate film tearing and other plot holes really added to the hilarity. Overkill had a solid length for the genre it was in, and definitely featured a unique style. Let’s put the Joycons to use with a point and shoot gem.
Loved playing this on the Wii U/Wii. While we’re at it have SEGA re-release the HOTD compilation, and Ghost Squad!

This game is pretty funny. I think it would work well on the Switch (either with the touchscreen or Joycons.)
