10 Most Overrated Nintendo Switch Games
3. New Super Mario Bros. U Deluxe
It's a decent title, you could do a lot worse, but as the 10th best selling game on the system, well...
To be fair, it typically sells for less than other top tier Nintendo titles, though not by much. Yes, it has multiplayer and all the extra content thrown in, but it's a still a rehash of an old game that's not even the best 2D Mario experience. The levels are mostly and notoriously dull to look at, with none of the usual charm and innovation that Mario is known for.
It's managed to outsell Mario Maker 2, a game that comes pre-loaded with more levels than Deluxe, the ability to create your own levels, as well as access to all the levels made by other owners, including Nintendo.
Plus, Donkey Kong Tropical Freeze might be a rehash of a Wii U title, but one world alone has more innovation, colour, and variety than Deluxe as an entire game. Not to mention, there are a tonne of indie titles more worthy of your attention, and that are far cheaper.
3D World was recently released too, so there really is no reason for this game to exist or to retain such a high position, certainly not at full price.
