Nintendo has a number of high-quality titles, and it's hard to boil down to 5 games, but here are our top 5.
Another new first-party Nintendo Switch game sale is happening, including Super Mario Odyssey, Donkey Kong, Luigi's Mansion 2 HD, and more.
..It's America again. Articles a waste of time for the rest of the world.
Whilst true let’s not forget this is a Nintendo “sale.” Not much of a bargain worldwide anyways lol
NE: "More than eight years later, we take a look at Super Mario Odyssey and see how it holds up now that it's on Nintendo Switch 2."
I bought the switch 1 Mario odyssey bundle when it came out. Good thing Nintendo didn't charge for the switch 2 upgrade.
NE: "Our Super Mario Odyssey vs. Donkey Kong Bananza analysis goes over various points in both games to decide which one comes out on top."
Donkey Kong is an average game. Mario Kart is now neutered and watered down. I'm hoping Metroid is at least above average.
Donkey Kong had so much more than they showed in the direct. Not to spoil anything but considering people were assuming there'd be like 4 or 5 "worlds" in total, many were shocked to find out just how far the game keeps going.
I'm having a blast with the game myself, but to each their own. MK is a solid entry in the series, is it the best? Debatable. But it's not like it's a bad game at all.
I feel your assessment. The destruction & playability in DK is phenomenal. MK has a ton to unluch and some dope tracks. It's something about both that didn't punch in areas where it needed the most.
i wouldnt compare these games at all.
but, having played both, Odyssey is the better game.
In my opinion, Xenoblade doesn't have any buisness being on a top 5 list for the Switch.
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Animal Crossing: New Horizons
Splatoon 2
Ring Fit Adventure
Super Mario Maker 2
Luigi's Mansion 3
Heck even Pokémon Sword and Shield
All of those and more I would put in far above Xenoblade. It's a good game, but has glaring problems, particularly in performance and voice acting that I think holds it back from greatness, especially when you compare it to other fantastic titles on the Switch that have mastered their craft.
Goodness Mario Kart 8 and Animal Crossing have combined sold over 50 million copies. Xenoblade is at 2 million. Nothing to slouch at, but when compared to the heavy hitters.. I wouldn't say it's a 'top' game.
Ugh there I go being negative, everyone has an opinion and this is theirs. I just disagree and got a bit triggered that they have both Xenoblade games on their list instead of others that in my mind are essential for switch owners. I mean sure, MK8 is a remake of a Wii U game.. and yet it is the highest selling game on the platform by a wide margin, it's fantastic, if you have a switch, you should get it. If that doesn't warrant a top spot I don't know what does.
Not a great deal to choose from tbh
This list isn't bad, but mine would be (in no order)
Smash Ultimate
BotW
Xenoblade 2
Luigi's Mansion 3
Fire Emblem 3 Houses
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 has the best soundtrack of any Switch exclusive game.
...cool!! i really enjoy playing xenoblade chronicles 2, im also imagining it playing on ps5. Will be awesome indeed. I think i like it more than ff15 and ff7remake(even its my best rpg of all time.).
