I own almost all exclusives and almost all Wii U ports.

Ask about a game and I'll tell you about my experience with it.

Tetris 99.


I played a loooot of this back in the first few months it was released. I've won 1 game of it. But I haven't played much lately to unlock any of the skins.

I'd probably play it more now if the modes I want to try weren't all locked behind a paywall.

It's a pretty great Tetris game all things considered, especially if you buy all the DLC.

Yeah I love Mario Maker 2. A few months back I went into a level making frenzy after the new content patch dropped.

Starlink: Battle for Atlas

This was actually a multi-plat, but I considered buy it just for Star Fox. Unfortunately even at $10, I still feel like I wouldn't get much enjoyment out of it. Seems like a bland space shooter game. Maybe one day I'll try it.

Mario Rabbids


Funny story about this one. I bought it years ago for half-price, in 2018. I originally didn't care much for it. I found the combat tedious and bland. Didn't like how 'simple' everything was and it just wasn't interesting to me. I hated the constant puzzles that I had to do between levels, too.

Tried it again a couple weeks ago(I'm actually currently in a playthrough right now, on world 4), and I'm really liking it, and quite hooked on it. I must've just really not been in the right state of mind for it the first time. I've just taken a casual approach to it this time, playing through the levels and having fun with it. Luigi with a sniper is badass.

This is a great one. I've played a lot online(never got super into the league modes, though). I had a great time grinding my way to being a profreshional in Salmon Run. Spent like a week playing salmon run every day until I got to the max rank.

I still need to try the DLC and the bonus campaign.

Well, this varies from person to person, and obviously you know what you want better than anyone else. So the way that I'm going to answer this question is as if you asked me, "Hey SteveNick, if YOU could only personally have 5 Switch games, assuming you'd never played any, which 5 would you pick?"

And here's my 5:

  1. Breath of the Wild
  2. Super Mario Odyssey
  3. Smash Ultimate
  4. Fire Emblem Three Houses
  5. Super Mario Maker 2


I debated over this list for a bit because there's some that you really NEED as a Switch owner. Like Mario Kart isn't really optional, but I don't have any of those 5 I can replace it with. Splatoon 2 and Animal Crossing would be tough to do without as well. But that's my top 5!

No seriously, I played the demo and I don't see $50 there. It seemed quite neat but I didn't see $50. If anybody but Nintendo made this, it'd be $15 max.

I didnt pay full price for it personally, but Im pretty sure I got a full priced games amount of time out of it. (unfortunately I left my cartridge at my apartment when I came back to stay with my mom during the virus times, so I cant check exactly how long I played) I get the suspicion of its value, I had the same doubts, but its got enough polish and production value that I can believe they gave it a major titles budget.

The thing that I love about it is that its like playing the game for an anime that doesnt exist. It has fully anime cutscenes and a ridiculous story that takes the sushi striking totally seriously. Its like if the people making Yu-Gi-Oh were aware of how silly Yu-Gi-Oh is and really leaned into it. The phrase sushi heresy is used at one point.

and the core gameplay is fun. Its been a while since I played so I dont remember super clearly, but I think they found enough variations on it within the game to keep it entertaining all the way through.

I would say definitely dont actually spend $50 on it at this point, but its on sale for like $13 on Amazon right now. Its worth that for sure.

Octopath Traveler.

Got this in the mail on release date and loved playing through it. I played as Olberic and beat all 8 stories. Had an overall great time. The criticism about this game related to the repetitiveness is definitely legit, but I still enjoyed it. Sold my copy after beating it since there's no reason I'd ever want to replay it. I did not do the final boss.

Ring Fit Adventure

I have it but I don't really use it that much. I find that the time it takes me to start it up results in me wanting to exercise less. I get more benefit out of just immediately starting to exercise with no prep time like starting the game. I will say that the game is excellent though and that ring fit joycon thing is exceptionally well made.

Really love the characters and scenes in this game. I still watch Jin memes on youtube, search for "Jin is totally radical" and watch the vid(spoilers obv). Torna was one of my favourite games overall for the Switch, and I liked it almost as much as the base game. Lora was a great fem protag.

The World Ends With You. It's not indie, but you might not know about it. It's heavy on the artwork/soundtrack. Only play it if you're okay with handheld and you don't mind touching your screen a lot.
