By really obvious, I mean Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Oddysey, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, Super Smash Bros Ultimate, and Pokemon Sword / Shield.

Your answers can include ports, enhanced ports, and compilations.

How is Mario + Rabbids?

Also, Celeste actually looks like a lot of fun. I just watched a video review. Really good platforming. The abysmal graphics do alienate me a lot, though. Why do some modern side-scrolling platformers have to have "retro" graphics? Wtf?

Celeste looks quite hard though, and I worry since you mentioned you struggle to pass level 1 of Bayonetta 2

Don't think so, because it was fanmade. Definitely pick that up though, it's a love letter to the originals that SEGA itself could not accomplish.

Well...that's certainly true, friend. I still haven't made it past the first main level, despite having a few hours in the game.

I do specialise in side-scrolling platformers, though.

They look like fun, but I get really confused with Metroidvania games. I really enjoy platforming, but some of the exploration, and the fact it's usually one big world map really confuse (and upset) me. I dunno. They do seem enjoyable, though (HK and SK).

Celeste gets harder and could really annoy some people, but the game doesnt make it feel unfair with its difficulty.

You can get a physical copy of Sonic Mania, I think. Ive seen Switch cases for it, but maybe it just houses an eShop code.

May want to read that^

I have Sonic Mania Plus physical. It's $30 new and it comes in a shiny sleeve with an art book and the case. It's actually really nice.

Might come back to recommend games later. But I'm a little busy rn.

i barely played mine but some i liked

golf story - fun little indie golf game. fun even if you're not really a golf fan. it's a bit of an rpg as well

bloodstained ritual of the night/curse of the moon - get it on ps4/xbone if you can for ritual but switch one might be running fine now.

If you like JRPGs of that era then absolutely. I love Grandia 1 and 2

It has great roguelikes

Crypt of the Necrodancer
Enter the Gungeon
Binding of Isaac

Katamari Damacy is a must-play if you haven't done it before

I love De Blob and De Blob 2 for their dynamic splashy soundtracks and funny cut scenes

Okami if you want a Zelda-like game with beautiful art.

Baba is You if you want a mindbending and clever puzzle game.

VVVVVV and Limbo are two indie sidescrollers from about a decade ago which are both very fun games with totally different tones and aesthetics--VVVVVV for excited fast-paced retro action, Limbo for a uniquely morbid tone and style.
