One of the best versions of Tetris, lots of Puyo, Mr Driller and other stuff. Tycoon: Surprisingly Switch has a crazy Tycoon game lineup. Turn based: Not only Switch gets some of the best turn based stuff it also get lots of legacy stuff, courtesy of Square-enix, Atlus and Falcom. And this is a genre that continuously gets better on Switch. This is even getting better in its 6th year.Īction RPG: Veeery good. Open World action: Switch literally is the best Nintendo system and best handheld in this regard.
DIGIMOBS COROMON SERIES
Those two were pretty legendary, got pretty much every big series that Switch has and much more. Racing: Sadly not up there with DS and PSP. This needs to be fixed and until then, this is one of the worst. Sports: This is the only Nintendo system, only handheld without an NFL game. we still don't have a proper deathmatch FPS game on the system. Nintendo needs to bring other 2D characters beck to 3D world, like DK and Wario.įPS: For single player FPS games, Switch is the best handheld. There are even out-of-nowhere titles like GnG Resurrection.ģD Platformer: Much better than DS and 3DS but still leaves us wanting. Good idea but I'm gonna tweak that genre list a little bit:ĢD Platformer: Nintendo handhelds always are the best ones for this Switch is no different.
Strategy - Does this count SRPGs? If so, A tier. Roguelike - This is a genre composed mainly of new entries, and the Switch gets basically all of them. Also gets most of the new releases in the genre. B tier in comparison to other Nintendo consoles, probably A tier overallģD Platformer - Technically has every 3D Mario except Galaxy 2 and 3D Land, Odyssey is a masterpiece, apparently Bowser's Fury is quite good too though I haven't played it yet. Third Person Shooter - 2 Splatoon games means this is at least B tier, but I can't think of any notable entries outside of SplatoonĢD Platformer - Decent enough back catalog, some ok first party titles, de facto home for new indie releases. Has a decent back catalog of entries and is basically the de-facto console home for modern entriesįirst Person Shooter - D tier, no explanation needed. Has a fairly solid back catalog and does surprisingly well on the CRPG front, but there's a lot that its missing
JRPG - S tier, probably one of the best systems for the genre in general
I'll stick with genres that I know more about or are easier to define.Īction - 3 Bayo games, Astral Chain, and a fair back catalog of older action titles make this a pretty solid A tier for me
DIGIMOBS COROMON FREE
Obvious feel free to add any genres I might have missed! So now with that in mind, the question is, how would you rate the Nintendo Switch library in the following genres?
The general makeup of its library is more or less set in stone now. While some surprise announcements might still happen (Yakuza on Switch in 2023, who's with me!), on the whole, the general constitution of the Switch's lineup and overall library is fairly clear, right? Like, it's not suddenly gonna become a hotbed for competitive first person shooters, and it won't fall off a cliff for metroidvanias. At this point, the shape of its library is clear. Whether we think the Nintendo Switch successor is out this year, next year, 2024, or even as late as 2025, there is no viable scenario for the platform in which it has not entered the final leg of its life.
