Spiritfarer really moved me. I picked that one up when I was feeling at my lowest and I loved every minute of it. Wylde flowers also holds such a special place in my heart ❤️
i guess this is my sign to finish the game 😆 i started playing it awhile ago but I left it alone since
@@DatsRockysameee! I had like 4-5 spirits and LOVED the game but I never finished it for some reason, need to go back
I was not really prepared for how DEEP spiritfarer would be while still maintaining this positive vibe. THATS skillful storytelling. What a masterpiece.
a game I loved was Unpacking. It is SO cozy and has strong storyline. You unpack, organize a character's life through different stages of their life. It feels like you knew the person. I can see it becoming a series.
Same!!! I wish I could play it for the first time again. I loved every moment of it.
Yes
I'm gonna reinstall, now. Need them vibes.
Agreed I love unpacking so much, its so cool how they made a good story without any dialogue or even seeing the characters at all(beyond photos)
Why are you so hateful???
Spiritfarer, I will never forget. I find it difficult to talk about it. I played it during lockdown. I was unable to go to my mother's funeral in the US and within 6 months I had to put my 14 yr old cat to sleep because of stomach cancer. While coping with grief it was cathartic.
Months later when the dlc was starting to be released with an article about Stella, I was sobbing. It's a beautiful game and is one of my favourite games. It's rare that after playing a game years ago it still has the ability to make me cry.
The fact you can list so many great games already, and still be on the eve of Mario Wonder's release is a testament to just how many great years of games the switch has delivered!
I am very excited to play it, the reviews have been much higher than I was expecting!
@@Eeowna Yes me too, seeing a side scroller get this sort of reception is very promising, I am pre-loaded and ready to start obsessively trying to launch it from five minutes to midnight tonight! 😂
What time will stream tomorrow
Well currently it is the elephant in the room
In seriousness though it's the most wacky Mario game with new powers and weird stage things so if it didn't get decent reviews I'd assume it was boring or something
Sword/shield was the first time I’ve ever completed a Pokédex. Not just the main one but all the DLC dexes too. I really loved this entry almost as much as Ruby/Sapphire.
It’s crazy how things can be so elevated by what’s happening at the time in your life, animal crossing was my all time favorite game from 2001 and getting a switch for Christmas from a friend I bawled my eyes out and to play it during one of the worst times of my life completely changed me and opened up a whole world of healing through games
Oh crikey, when you said you said goodbye to your friends and that you'd meet up in Animal Crossing.... That really got me!
I met friends online during the pandemic thanks to the game and then played with them and had loads of fun. Although I eventually got burnt out after about 1500 hours, I can't imagine ever sinking that many hours into a game again. It'll always be very special.
I remember buying the switch so i could play let's go eevee, smash bros and octopath but animal crossing was my first pre-order and it was special cause i worked at best buy so my boss gave me my copy a day early bc there were about 500 pre-orders coming to the store
Spiritfarer broke my heart into pieces and I've never forgotten it. Especially the bat character's mental health struggles and how people reacted to her. I relate to that so, so much.
Just perfectly paced, perfectly characterised, perfectly drawn, and so very, very full of heart.
Was so happy to see my comment in the video 😊. Checked and Sword and Shield are STILL my 2nd most played game (only behind Animal Crossing). Oddly enough while I enjoy Pokémon Legends Arceus it’s been one of the only Pokemon games on Switch I have yet to finish. I just kept getting distracted trying to complete the Pokédex in each area so I haven’t made much progress on the story
I absolutely love Cozy Grove and still play it daily after finishing the story...so excited to hear they are making another
I just started back with it. After getting frustrated with it and feeling regretful for buying it. I ended up changing my mind.
I’m so bored of Cozy Grove
Ooblets announced a major content update coming soon. It is written in the update notes that prompts when you start the game. It sounded like a whole new storyline. I’m so excited! I also loved Wylde Flowers.
AHHHHHH STOP
I really loved Yoku's Island Express. It's such a unique combination of pinball and platformer/mertoidvania, I had tons of fun and was sad it ended, found nothing quite like it and developers didn't come out with a new title either :')
Spiritfarer is definetely my favorite game ever so I would have been surprised if it was not in this list ✨️ I love the artstyle, the characters, the music, the minigames. Glad to know I'm not the only one! It's the first game I recommend to people who want to play cozy games (besides ACNH), together with Wylde Flowers 😍
Ah I appreciate you so much! I've played a few games on this list, but I've gotten so many great suggestions here too. I had completely forgot Ooblets was a thing, and I'm absolutely going to buy and play it in the very near future :)
You’re almost at 100k subs! 😭 I remember subbing when you were at 3k , congrats girl!!
Love this list! My switch journey started with ACNH and I’ve been deep into cozy games ever since. Stardew Valley is a must. I was skeptical at first because of graphics but I’ve never been hooked on anything in the way that Stardew Valley hooked me when I finally got into it. Also TOTK & BOTW just take you into a whole other world and is just a breathtaking game. Spiritfarer is also fully worth every minute of play time. Can’t wait to play Wylde Flowers and am shocked Disney Dreamlight Valley made it! I go up and down with that game for sure.
Heartened that Wylde Flowers made the list alongside so many other great games. ❤
Cozy grove is probably my favorite even though it's not exclusive. I totally agree about wylde flowers too.
So many truly amazing games on here that really do make the switch shine. I will always sing praises to the game Okami, not originally for Nintendo consoles but the port to switch was beautifully done and I honestly cannot recommend it enough to anyone who loves story driven games with a gorgeous art style. Think Zelda meets Japanese water colour art but you play as a god in wolf form 😅
Currently been addicted to Ooblets after I was grinding on Skyrim for awhile 😩 I love the nostalgia for Skyrim when it starts to get chilly outside. Stardew and Animal Crossing will always be my cozy games tho ❤
8:33 Oh my gosh that's me! Thanks so much for including my comment about my love for Sword and Shield. Cheers! ♡
Your makeup is on fire in this video! ❤
I got animal crossing the week lockdown started and it also got me through the 3 months of quarantine. I played 450 hours in that first 3 months. I was clocking like 14-16 hours of animal crossing a day 😅😅
I am so happy Pokémon Arceus was on this list! I feel like a lot of diehard Pokémon fans didn’t like this game for whatever reason, but this was really the first game I didn’t feel bored with if that makes sense… I loved the open world feel, the time warp, and the whole exploration… I really hope that they make another Pokémon game like this!
I am also very happy to see spiritFarer on here… I am one of those people that will say this is also one of my all-time favorite switch games… I loved the map and navigation of this game, I also loved the customization of the main character, and though I have issues with death and grief, this really helped me through all of that in a way that made me cry every time I had to say goodbye and let out my emotions
honestly Arceus is the one I had the most fun in, I think the lack of shiny ding in scarlet and violet took away all the fun
I'm genuanily curious about this. I haven't played pokemon since FireRed and was thinking of getting a switch Pokemen game. Why do people not like it?
Well now that I see it’s on the list, maybe it’s not as many as I thought that didn’t like it! I think when it first came out some didn’t like it because it was so different than other Pokémon games? I will say it can be hard! If you die (or black out) during a battle…you can loose a lot of your stuff which had me a few times shut off the game and stand in a corner for a few minutes 🤣 I love the open world feel of it and then the different mounts you get…it felt more like an open world rpg then any other Pokémon games…I really don’t care about collecting all the different types of Pokémon so I didn’t really worry too much about that but it’s really the most fun I’ve had in a Pokémon game to be honest…highly recommend you buy!
@@joaofarinha551instead of you being a Pokemon trainer you are a Pokemon researcher. So your job is not to earn badges in gyms but to research Pokemon. That means each Pokemon has certain tasks to complete.
Spiritfarer definitely made it to be one of my favourite games just as I started playing! I still did not do the very last quest since that would feel too emotional for me.
This is such a great video idea! Love hearing what others are playing
I got DQB2 this year on a whim and am still loving it and have no idea when the story will end. I never got into Minecraft but this game is right under Animal Crossing (my favorite!) for me right now. Also, you can play the demo for free on Switch and it is LONG.
I‘m in love with the first Ni No Kuni game, it just brought me so much wonder and was one of the first games I bought on the switch. Also absolutely in Love with TOTK! one of the games I haven’t been able to put down lately has been Stardew! ☺️ but all the Zelda games will forever be at the top of my list
Ni No Kuni is amazing ♥️
Catching up, sorry for the late watches!
I'm dealing with some super stressful stuffs right now with work. Your comments about ACNH kinda almost makes me want to redownload it and start from scratch again...
Still really need to get Three Houses and Arceus. Hoping for a holiday sale.
And omg you read my comment about Wylde Flowers 😱😱😱💜💜💜
i literally loved violet so much that i recently bought scarlet to play through as well. and i have NEVER bought both games for a generation before. 😳 i wish they got more hype!! i will say i liked the world for sword/shield better, but scarlet/violet had a WAY more fun plotline (was NOT expected the plot twist w the professors at the end) and the side characters are SO lovable. also, the DLC was SOOOO much fun!
The graphic are awful and the world kind of lifeless and unfinished. That's why they don't get hype. The Pokémon series is a cashgrab.
I totally agree with everything you said about Animal Crossing. I met new friends trading items and found three new CZcams channels (including yours) through this game
Hi Eeowna, I love your work and channel. I love my switch and within the 6 years I have been through so many switches and I currently have the OLED. Your videos always makes me appreciate gaming a lot more. I have PS5 and switch and I intend on using my switch more. I love the idea of using my switch and its franchises. I plan on playing some Zelda games and then some Pokemon. Thank you for everything❤❤
I prefer Scarlet and Violet more than Sword and Shield coz they have better shiny hunting mechanics. Bugs and graphics I can deal with but bad shiny hunting mechanics takes away from the entire game for me.
Animal Crossing really got me through a lot. My grandpa had passed and Lyman really reminded me of him, so it’s like I could still see him everyday
I cried so much playing spiritfarer, if I could play a game for the first time again this would definitely be in my top 3
So happy Wylde Flowers made the list. It's my absolute favourite game of all time.
ayyy the comment at around 8 30 was my friend!! she's awesome hehe (I'm also a huge Bede lover)
I relate to saying swsh is what got you back into pokemon. I was in a huge depressive phase after some traumatic experiences and when I finally played sword last year, it just completely snapped me out of it
When you mentioned Ooblets! I immediately thought of Gab and had a good laugh when her name popped up on screen 😄
My favourite is probably botw (haven't played totk yet). There's just nothing like wanting to finish a quest, seeing something weird in the distance, getting distracted, ending up on the complete opposite side of the map and forgetting what you were doing in the first place 💜
There are so many more games that I want to check out tho!!
My husband got us both a Nintendo Switch for Christmas of 2021. I absolutely LOVE it! It helps me to escape when I need it. I do have ACNH, Breath of the Wild, and a lot of other games (most of which are on my Switch). I also really love Disney Dreamlight Valley. Sooo much fun to play. I do have Hogwarts Legacy for PC, but I'd like to get it on my Switch too. Maybe when it comes out and gets cheaper I will get it for myself. I love playing Wyld Flowers. So enjoyable and relaxing. It really makes you feel close to the characters in the game and that makes it more enjoyable.
I also love being able to play games on the N64, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Game Boy, Game Boy Advanced etc on the Switch. When the Switch 2 comes out, it will probably be a while before we get that one. Hopefully they will make it backwards compatible because that would just be absolutely ridiculous and insane NOT to do that.
I put over 3000 hours into ACNH. I had never played an AC game before. My daughter gifted me the game and Switch for Christmas right at the beginning of the pandemic and just before a surgery that took many months of recovery. Not only did the game save my sanity while largely confined to a chair, it turned me on to cozy gaming and I return to it again and again to visit my villagers and work on my second island.
Spirit farer hit something different in me I have NEVER cried so much from a game
I agree with all 5 first games u put in from everyone! I also finished pokemon shield, my first game ever finished pokemon wise! I always go back to stardew valley, still love ACNH, and any mario game(yoshi crafted adventure, mario odyssey, etc), i also appreciate final fantasy! I can always go back to it and love the story! I also always go back to the classic minecraft.
Love seeing Dragon Quest Builders 2! Such a great game
I love stardew so much and I cannot wait for the Haunted chocolatier and Witch Brooke to drop. Wylde Flowers is ONE of my all time favorite games
For me Stardew Valley and ACNH are on top of the list. But Unpacking and a short hike are my highlights. Two beautiful games with so much heart ❤
Thanks so much!!! I just got the oled today and traded in my old switch! I love it and its well worth the upgrade!
Spiritfarer is so good, I'm delighted that it made this list, it is my all time favorite game.
I guess I need to try out a few more games…. Come on good winter sale! ❤️
Great list and don’t come for me for this, I know there’s a lot of love for Ooblets, I just had no idea it was THAT popular! I was never able to get into it but it seems to bring joy to a lot of people.
I just bought a switch oled, I used to use the pop and the vita loved both because of the internals and games it could run and I know the switch has some good games too but I'm going to be using it mainly for Minecraft I think its the best game to ever exist in my opinion but I wish they updated the specs with the oled.
amazing video, exactly i was searching as a new nintendo switch owner, keep up the good work! (my favourite switch game is mario odyssey)
There are some good games on this list, but my favourite game on the Switch is actually Okami HD. It's my third copy of this game (I own it on the Wii and PC too), but I keep replaying it again and again (I think this is the 8th time I'm playing it since around 2008). It's an older game, but anyone who hasn't tried it yet needs to get it. You'll get 100 hours of fun
I love that the thumbnail shows Stardew Valley, Animal Crossing, and Breath of the Wild. For a long time those were the exact three games I had the highest play time for! But now I have Railway Empire on number 1.
I'm not even joking, I very nearly suggested Pokemon Violet! I played Shield but never finished it, whereas I go back to Violet again and again! I loved completing the story, my pokedex and shiny hunting.
Yesss Fire Emblem Three Houses is fantastic! Everybody has their own favorites in that huge cast of characters :D and I agree with that comment about the environment- sometimes I’m just in awe while I do my rounds in the huge academy.
I’m debating whether to get Fire Emblem Three Houses or Xenoblade Chronicles 3. Have you played both and which would you choose?
@@Wonder_Woman21 I have not played Xeno 3, but I am going through Xeno 2. From my perspective, Xenoblade games a quite more complex in terms of gameplay, because it's a variation on a real-time combat system.
Three Houses has the classic turn-based tactics gameplay, where you can also save in the middle of battles when it's your turn. In that sense, I preferred Fire Emblem.
Both games have long expansive stories with fantasy and magic, and world-changing events. But I think Xenoblade's story feels more complete with a bit more knowledge of previous games, while Fire Emblem games tend to stand alone more in comparison. :) Hope this helps!
@@Tribdinosaur Thank you for taking the time to give me your in depth thoughts, it was helpful. 😊
So happy xenoblade is getting some love here, one of my favourite franchises of all time it’s criminal how little people I know that have delved into it….. I still can’t decide if I prefer 2 and torna or 3 and future redeemed but they all became such comfort games for me with multiple playthroughs across the whole franchise x included. Holds such a strong place in my heart I have a giant tai on and Eunie ouroburos tattoo on my leg. If the genre isn’t for you please for the love of god just listen to the music… some of the best in all of gaming ❤
It’s funny, I like cozy and (farming-) sim kind of games (I grew up with the harvest moon series) but animal crossing really never was my thing though. Fire Emblem three houses is also one of my favorites, some people don’t like this school theme but for me it was really the cherry on top that made this game outstanding from other Fire Emblems. Just gave me those anime high school vibes. Love it❤ Stardew Valley is very appealing to me content wise but I just can’t deal with the pixel graphics🥲
Love so many of these games, and I was surprised to see this game on this channel, but also love monster hunter rise!! The home base and pets are definitely cozy, but for me the coziest part is playing co-op with my boyfriend. (This is his account btw. He got me watching youtube videos). I carry him a little lol, but it’s so fun to play together and have the same goal. I think co-op is much less common than competitive with multiplayer games. I also love how buttery smooth the ui and overall local/online experience is with this game! I was very impressed how this runs on switch, even with a full online team, and how seamless and easy it is to initiate local/online play. Animal crossing needs to take notes😆
*Some more to play:*
-DKC tropical freeze
-Link's Awakening
-Mario 3d All stars
-Mario 3d world/Bowsers Fury
-Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
-little nightmares 1+2
-Death's Door
AND... MARIO WONDER. It's amazing.
The creature design of ooblets is superior. They are so simple but still have so much Personality
I love FE in general, and Three Houses is my absolute favorite! Unfo, Engage was not great. Hoping that the next one is better.
Arceus was definitely the best Pokemon, along with Let's Go Eevee. I love the new style of the one and the old revamped of the old.
The music of Spiritfarer is just gorgeous - I heard it on a video game randomised playlist and that's what led me to it. Just wonderful.
I bought and put 60+ hours into Wylde Flowers after you recommended it and I would have to say it's one of my favourite games on the Switch.
I’ve had spiritfarer for 2 years now but I haven’t started because i bought it right after my father died and I’m afraid i might cry too much when I play.
While understandable, it might also give you something you need. You can always try and if it's too much, shelve it again until later.
But I think it might give you a little bright spot while also moving through grief. 💜 Well wishes to you.
I think follow your instincts, the only parts that are emotional are the first characters attached to the MC. One characters arc end made me stop playing it was too sad and I ain’t even grieving
aaa I LOVE this video! It's such a nice idea that you asked your community for their opinion!
I think if I had to list ten "must-have" games on the Switch in no order (with some variety in genre), they would be:
1. Stardew Valley (farming sim). Still the most bang for your buck in the Switch's entire catalog imo.
2. Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom (action-adv). Could have also put BOTW here, but Tears really just perfected a lot of the former's already minor issues.
3. The House in Fata Morgana: Tears of the Revenant Edition (visual novel). Not really a cozy story in the slightest unless you love a tragic read in the vein of "Jane Eyre ghost story meets the Canterbury Tales," but one of the most impactful stories I've ever read in any medium period. There's a reason it was the highest ranked Switch release on Metacritic for a decent while (and is currently ranked No. 3)
4. Return of the Obra Dinn (mystery). Just go in blind if you haven't played it, one of the most fun surprises on the console. Loved playing this with a friend as we tried to untangle the missing pieces (yes we had to pull out some actual pen and paper lol).
5. Hades (rougelike). I usually hate rougelikes and find them either incredibly stressful or boring after the first few rounds. This was such a game changer for me, and has enough of a story to keep me emotionally invested.
6. Disco Elysium (RPG, mystery). Like Obra Dinn, its hard to explain this one without giving too much away. I also feel like Fata Morgana it has cozy mechanics (especially if you're a big reader), but I wouldn't really call it cozy at all.
7. Spiritfarer (task manager) - Honestly besides Fata Morgana, this had the next biggest emotional impact on me - talk about gentle storytelling still packing a wallop of a punch.
8. Portal 2 (puzzle). The Switch has quite a few older classics but if I had to give a spot to one, I'll give it to the genre I haven't covered yet haha
9. Bug Fables (RPG, adventure) - As someone who was really missing classic Paper Mario, this hit the spot for me. A cute world, fun characters, and a combat style that can be as easy or complex as you want. Especially when so many of it's similarly-stylized peers like Outbound Ghost fell so short.
10. [Insert Party or Comfort Game of Choice] Maybe its Mario Kart, Smash Bros, or something like Unpacking or Strange Horticulture. Whatever game brings you joy, this is the spot to put it!
Oh I'm SO happy to see Obra Dinn mentioned, I still wish I could play it for the first time again! This is a really great list overall!
I met you because of pokemon! I'd been streaming New Pokemon snap and raided into you cause you were playing too :)
My current favorite is Drudge thanks to you! ❤
Great recommendations. Most of these games listed gave me anxiety. I love "Xenoblade Chronicles." I haven't played 2 or 3.
Would it be possible to get the list added (as text) in the description? Great list!
When I saw your post I should have just said stardew valley!
Not only did I purchase the game twice ,once for PlayStation and once for switch so I could have a mobile file
It's a game I broke the exception of buying a digital game to begin with as I prefer physical games
So that's saying something and it's definitely one of my top 10 favorites for sure as I can always go back and play for hours and still have so much to customize and do
Animal crossing was released here on my birthday 🎂. So I bought it as a present to myself, and it reintroduced me to gaming. A luxury I had let slide to meet the demands of work. Let work take over after the pandemic again, and what game reminded me that I need a break? New horizons.... Though I very quickly picked up a new Pokemon game. And now I'm back to making some time for me most days to play, whatever.
Very unique and interesting list. Nicely done. 👏
Aww, yay! My Stardew comment made it on the list. So happy I can spread the love of Stardew to others and hope they pick up the game to give it a chance... just as I did once. 😊
Pokemon Arceus has beed my favorite game on switch, the dinamic of creating the first Pokedex, to being able to explore and cath pokemon while they are unaware and not having to battle every single time, and the drama of the pokemons and tryint to return them their normal self...just... absolute chef's kiss. Also the only pokemon game that i have been able go finish fully, story and Pokedex. Currently playing Pokemon Scarlett and I am liking it but for me, after Arceus...it just doesn't beat it. Also how beautiful the world in Arceus looks 😍...and Scarlett for me it has been glitchy which is pissing me off.
I'm hoping SO much that they will do another Fire Emblem game like Three Houses. It was the first time I played a Fire Emblem and I enjoyed it throughout. With Fire Emblem Engage which has released not so long ago I can't say the same.
I just finished Tears of the Kibgdom, and dang. That ending boss battle was a whole restaurant's worth of chef's kisses.
It’s so funny to me that I’m listening to this while finishing my 6th run of Dragon Quest Builders 2 😭
Definitely one of my forever favorites
I kinda wish I got to experience Animap Crossing during the pandemic. But I still love that gme
I’ve been lost in the Moonstone Island game for the past few days. My other games are sad.
one of my new favourite games on the switch is Sky: children of light. its such a great cozy game and the best part is that its free.
I'm really loving fae farm right and paleo pines. Annother fun one I like is lemon cake.
I agree with that nothing has topped animal crossing new horizon I restarted My Island again needed to figure out how to place things neatly
I've only had the game about a year got it for my birthday 🎂
Can't believe dragon quest builders 2 got on the list! But so happy about it! Love this game! 💜🥰💜
I've never heard of ooblets, but it looks so cute!! How have I never heard of it hehe
Scarlet was addictive but I’ve never picked it up after completing it. I mainly liked dressing up my character 😂
I just got a new switch and there are so many games that I don't know where to start. I feel overwhelmed by the amount of options I have and don't know where should I focus
Wow I must be really an island of my own....I only like 2 of the games mentioned, 1st is Wylde Flowers, then Animal Crossing New Beginnings, there are so many others I love they just didn't make it to this list.
Xenoblade. . .the fact we have the full trilogy + their extended stories is just amazing.
Splatoon - as someone who doesn't play shooters. . .>.> I love this series.
Animal Crossings helped me stay sane when there was so little else to do.
I'd stay Stardew, but I play it more on PC than anything.
Legends Arceus was amazing, and they'd better do something like it again.
I love almost all of these games or want to play them! Monster Hunter Stories 2 is much more cozy as you don't hurt any monsters! Ooblets doesn't have great reviews on Steam, but I still want to play it
I'm slowly diving into zelda games I'm playing hyrule warriors first then I'll go through botw and totk 😊
i just bought an intendo switch for my deployment. this vid helped a lot
mine is defenetly either animal crossing or xenoblade chronicles 3, acnh was just the perfect game for when it came out and xenoblade hit me real deep
Wondering if I missed the train on Animal Crossing?😅 I’ve never played! Would you recommend a new player starting now?
Got to love a good gush session on your favourite games, lol.
So happy to see the Xenoblade chronicles love
♥️
And to think we almost missed out on it because it used to only be on the Wii u
honestly 3 destroyed me in the best way! Getting into the franchise was the best risk I ever took
@@Eeowna I have the remake for Xenoblade chronicles 1 they did for the switch
So happy I got the art book
I just didn't get very far into it and didn't play the sequels yet.
I’m happy that the dragon quest builders 2 have a recognition, and one of the best games, I’ve played. 1 and 2 of course. Still waiting for builders 3
I literally finally bought the switch because of animal crossing but got bored of the game after a while especially comparing it to previous games, I said stardew valley purely because I have never gotten bored and there's going to be a new update! 🥳
I can't believe I didn't watching this video until now since I am a Nintendo nut. Like there is a reason why I am waiting to go to Universal Studios Florida, it's because I am waiting for the new part there that'll have Nintendo Land there lol. Nintendo is the only console I'll automatically get because I always get games on it. At least when it comes to home consoles. I even got the Wii U lol. My fav Switch game so far . . . . it's really hard to pick. Longest hours for sure belongs to Animal Crossing, but it's not my fav. I think I am going to have to go with Miitopia so far because it's such a fun game and pretending I am going on this adventure with friends and family is just a blast lol.
Here's how I feel about the games mentioned here, that I've played-
ACNH- I definitely had a blast that first year because of the things mentioned and it continued on through 2021, but I found myself addicted to the game (which is never a good sign) due to certain things and it became less fun to play. The last free update and that Happy Home Paradise did get me to play the game for another 6 months before I stop playing cold turkey and even deleted my whole save file (which hurt but I saw no other solution because I knew if I were to pick the game up again, it be a huge guilt trip). So yeah amazing game, but I don't think I'll ever get another AC game because of certain things.
LoZ:BotW- I got the game and while I did like it, its lowest rank on Zelda games I've finished. It has my fav story in the franchise, but I didn't like how big it was and it didn't feel like a Zelda game to me personally. I was originally going to get TotK, but I started asking myself if I really wanted to pay the hefty price for the game when I wasn't a big fan of the gameplay and size of game was more than double. So I did watch an LP of the game, amazing story and happy to see Ganondorf back, but it wasn't enough to convince me to get the game, so I'll be skipping out on it. My brother played the game (it's one of the few gaming franchises he's still interested in, he's busy with work, marriage, and fatherhood) and he didn't like the gameplay either, said it felt too tedious and he's one of the few people I trust their opinion on. So while I am happy people enjoy this game, I do pray in the future Eiji and his team go back to 3D Zelda roots more. FYI, my fav Zelda game to this day is Gamecube's version of Twilight Princess.
SDV- I never played this game on the Switch, I still play it on Steam. It's still my fav farming game and one of my fav cozy games (Coral Island might replace that though, I don't know), but this game just has a special place in my heart because it got me into the Indie game scene. I can't wait to get the cookbook next year (already pre-ordered it), and looking forward to 1.6 update as well as Eric's next game, Haunted Chocolatier.
LM3- First Luigi's Mansion 3 and yeah I love it. Such a blast exploring, it made me laugh, and I enjoyed most of the puzzles. It did have it's frustrating moments, but it definitely felt like it fitted within the expansive Mario universe.
Spiritfarer- I absolutely love this game. It really stands out from other 'sims' games. While it didn't make me cry, it did make me feel. My fav chars are Gustav, Daria, and Alice (in that order). Game play is so fun and it felt like a fun combo of simulation and platforming.
SMB Odyssey- Amazing Mario game, but similar to BoTW- my only complaint was how big it was at times. Still it did feel like a Mario game. I don't know how to rank it against other SMB games though, but Mario 64 is still my fav in this particular franchise. Fav Mario game in general though will always be Super Paper Mario.
Eeowna, minor correction- FE:3H is technically a tactical RPG, not turned-based. Sorry, JRPG nerd here. Tactical can be turned-based (just like 3H), but it's more complicated because it's like chess, you have to position your chars in the best locations, so it requires more 'thinking'.
My youngest brother (not the one who played ToTK) love gaming, but he mostly plays on the XBox. That being said, he does have a Switch, and the game he played the most was Monster Hunter Rise (when our internet is down, he'll play that game). He really likes it.
I do hope that when the next Nintendo console comes out (be it Switch 2 or something else), I pray it has backward compatibility. It's one reason why I loved the Nintendo Wii so much, because I could play my Gamecube games on it (Wii's still my fav Nintendo console for that reason).
