for "must have" it's mainly gonna just be Smash and Mario Kart for multiplayer, then Zelda (TotK and BotW) and Mario (Odyssey, Wonder) for single player. after that you can play with other series and Wii U ports.

Like Metroid, you've got Dread and Prime. like platforming, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze, Mario 3D World/Bowser's Fury. want cute, Yoshi's Crafted World and multiple Kirby games. want strategy, Pikmin Collection, Pikmin 4, and Advance Wars 1/2 remake. want RPGs, Fire Emblem Three Houses, Xenoblades (start with the remake of the 1st), SMT5, and for more obscure stuff there's 13 Sentinels too. and if you want action games technically there's Astral Chain and Bayonetta 3 but uh... well, performance issues exist. which is a general problem for all the games in that they run better emulated than on hardware and may well run better on the Switch 2 when it's out. nothing in this section is a "must have" i'd say but if you like a certain genre it stands out the most. hell, if you want more Zelda or more Mario you've those options too with Captain Toad or Zelda remakes/ports.
