PunchforPunch
07.07.19 | too many great games, get em all, man. |
robotmagician
07.07.19 | if you want a kart racer get crash team racing and not mario |
gryndstone
07.07.19 | depends on what u like. obligatory must-haves: Smash Bros Ult, Mario Odyssey, BoTW (and inevitably 2 when that comes out).
Like RPG's? Octopath Traveler is a slapper, Xenoblade Chronicles, maybe pick up some of the FF remakes.
Racers? Crash Team Racing is amazing.
Platformers? Hollow Knight, Crash Trilogy, Celeste, the Spyro trilogy remaster when that comes out
Fighters? Arms is criminally underrated and makes good use of the Joy-Cons. MK 11 is fun, Pokken if u like pokemon and also tekken, and i personally am hoping the Kill La Kill game is good.
There are a lot of really good indie games on the eShop as well - Undertale, Night In The Woods, Cuphead, Oxenfree, Moonligher etc,.
Sorry I work at a Gamestop I know too much |
J() Alexander
07.07.19 | Breath of the Wild and Breath of the Wild. |
Ectier
07.07.19 | Breath of the wild. Dead cells, hollow knight, Gris |
Gyromania
07.07.19 | crash team racing is indeed fucking awesome but mario kart 8 is still superior imo |
Gyromania
07.07.19 | also hollow knight isn't a platformer it's a metroidvania. comparing it to celeste and crash trilogy is lol |
gryndstone
07.07.19 | yeah u right gyro. but when i explain it to custoguests i can't use the word metroidvania because most of them look at me like i'm speaking gibberish |
Gyromania
07.07.19 | ah makes sense |
GreyShadow
07.07.19 | Fire Emblem looks like it's going to be dope. if you like RPGs or strategy games that'll be a must. |
PunchforPunch
07.07.19 | Fire Emblem is the only nintendo game that always makes me rage tbh |
Saros
07.07.19 | Bayonetta 1+2. Everything else has been already mentioned, so I'm just going to second Breath of the Wild, Katamari Damacy Reroll, Super Mario Odyssey and Smash Ultimate. |
asanisimasa
07.07.19 | Breath of the Wild and Dead Cells have been my favorites. Smash Ultimate is great with friends |
GreyShadow
07.07.19 | yeah FE gets pretty rage inducing. I'm playing through Echoes now and the turnwheel thankfully mitigates it a bit |
0GuyMan0
07.07.19 | HOLLOW KNIGHT |

07.07.19 | Mario Kart 8 is the best casual racer on the Switch. If you are seeking a really deep kart racing experience, while lacking in content, Team Sonic Racing's team mechanics are ridiculously refined and I reckon TSR has the most enjoyable moment-to-moment gameplay out of the three heavy hitters. Crash Team Racing has a fuck load more content than TSR and has a lot more depth than Mario Kart 8, though it isn't as strong of a casual experience than Mario Kart 8 or as strong of a competitive experience than TSR, sitting somewhere in the middle. Personally, TSR has my favourite gameplay mechanics and is thus my favourite of the three overall, but I've played a fuck load more MK8 due to how good it is at parties. You didn't ask for this but you're welcome.
BOTW is essential. I'd add Splatoon 2 if you like shooters. Probably the most innovative shooter franchise of the last decade. The game has so much content now given its major update cycle is coming to an end. HUGE bang for the buck. |
auberginedreams
07.07.19 | Mario and Zelda obviously. I'm playing Hollow Knight right now but I suck at it lol. Any of the Final Fantasy ports. Smash Bros. There's a lot of good indie games too like Steamworld Dig 2, Crypt of the Necrodancer, Undertale, etc. |
GreyShadow
07.07.19 | i played TSR like twice and I'm probably going to trade it in for Crash or finally give in and rebuy MK8. TSR felt kinda awful but again, only tried it twice |
botb
07.07.19 | If you like strategy stuff and aren’t afraid of getting a little weeby Valkyria Chronicles 4 is amazing |
ramon.
07.07.19 | @GreyShadow Worth noting MK8 is the only racer of the three that runs at 60FPS. TSR and CTR both run at 30. The Sonic racing franchise also has a fairly lightweight feel to kart control too which feels quite a bit different to MK8 and took me a decent amount of time getting used to in previous releases. These sorts of games really need demos. Good luck figuring out which one works for you.
Big [2] to Valkyria Chronicles |

07.07.19 | The Great Giana Sisters remake is fantastic. |
Invaderbryan
07.08.19 | Thanks everyone. So far I spent way more than I was and bought Breath of the Wild, smash bros, Skyrim, and Mario kart 8. Thank you again. |

07.08.19 | Can’t back those who rec Valkyria Chronicles 4, Steamworld Dig and Octopath Traveler enough. Nice to see you get BOTW, MK8 and 5mash; I’d heartily rec Shovel Knight and Splatoon 2. Can’t fucking wait for Fire Emblem: 3 Houses, and I’m currently running through a play of FE: Fates on my 3DS and FE: Radiant Dawn on my WiiU to get hyped for July 26th.

07.08.19 | Valkyria Chronicles [3]
Get the first one cuz 4's not as good. I hear it's good, just not AS good. Also Sonic Mania. |
Uzumaki
07.08.19 | I haven’t played the first yet, but it may be because I’ve played Fire Emblem, I found VC4 rather easy to get into and simple enough to get the hang of. I can vouch for 4 as a fun strategy JRPG. |
auberginedreams
07.08.19 | I’ve only played the first VC but it was cool.
Sonic Mania pissed me off having to restart the whole zone if you lose your lives so I quit after a few hours. |

07.08.19 | Played Skyrim on PS and it was a great experience. Spent lots of hours on this game and it didn't get stale at all. |
botb
07.08.19 | I actually have enjoyed VC4 as much as the first one but they’re both on switch now so no matter which you choose you can’t really go wrong |
