20 Best Nintendo Switch Games

Super Mario Maker is one of the most innovative, daring, and unexpected Mario games of the last 10 years - the only problem being that it was stranded on the Wii U and 3DS.

But in 2019, Mario Maker 2 was released for the Switch and largely followed the lead of its magnificently premised predecessor, which allowed players to build their own side-scrolling Mario levels and share them online.

One majorly welcome addition in Mario Maker 2 is the inclusion of assets from Super Mario 3D World, which have been reworked to cohere with this game's 2.5D visual style.

Beyond this, the sequel introduces a bevy of extra building tools to craft the most unhinged levels your mind can possibly conjure - though as with its predecessor, you ingeniously need to clear the level yourself before you can share it.

That's without even mentioning the 100+ level Story Mode or expanded multiplayer functionality, making Super Mario Maker 2 a must-own for Mario fans who consider themselves even slightly creative.
