15 Best Nintendo Switch Games

The Nintendo Switch has been out for over 3 years now, and it's still easy to remember when everyone was complaining there "weren't enough games". Anyway, that time has certainly passed, and thousands of people who deemed the console "not worth it" have eaten their words.

Whether you've had one from the start, just gotten one or haven't yet bit the bullet, it's important to know that this console stands on par with its competitors and that we may well be back into another golden age of Nintendo.

Over the last few years, the company has released game after game, some of which are true works of art and others which get left by the wayside, though a few shine through as some of the greatest games ever created. Whether you're big on Nintendo or just seeing what all the hype is about, it's vital to know what games are head and shoulders above the rest.

Hold onto your pokéballs, your plumber's hat and your Master Sword as we delve into the magical world of modern day Nintendo.

This game is so incredibly absurd, and ridiculous! It shouldn’t work, but it most certainly does. Using XCOM style turn-based tactics, this game is both fun and much more difficult than you’d expect.

This game is super self-aware, knowing just how bizarre this crossover is but it rolls with the mind-boggling premise and will give you hours and hours of dumb fun.

It might be a little strange from the get go watching your favourite characters from the Mario franchise shoot creatures with actual guns, but you’ll quickly get used to it and enjoy an old formula for games we didn’t expect to run it, while adding new features and abilities as your team works together to interact with the map better and drive you towards victory.

While there’s a steep learning curve and some early frustration to be had with this game as from the start your enemies seem entirely mobile, the crazy chains of movement and attacks you can do from the mid-game onwards more than makes up for it.
