My wife got me a Switch for my 36th birthday after years away from Nintendo and I gotta say it feels good to be back. The N64 was a big part of my youth.

I will start out by saying these joy-cons take some getting used to. So I ordered a pro controller and will probably never look back once it arrives.

Anyway, there have been so many amazing games I’ve missed out on over the years it’s hard to keep track. Hoping you all can help! Here’s my current backlog, what else should I add?

  • Metroid Dread (currently playing)
  • Metroid Prime
  • BOTW (a no-brainer)
  • Luigi’s Mansion 3
  • Super Mario Odyssey
  • Kirby and the Forgotten Land
  • DKC Tropical Freeze

Thanks!

    Stardew Valley! My wife (who is normally not a gamer) and I have put 100+ hours into our splitscreen co-op game. It’s very, very fun. :-)

    Honestly, though, your list represents hundreds of hours of gaming. So unless you put in some major hours on the reg, I would just focus on what you have instead of what you want to add.

      I’ve heard a lot of good things about Stardew Valley, and your not the first to recommend it in this thread. I’ll definitely add that to my list!
