Best Games for Nintendo Switch
Nintendo has enjoyed a presence in the Big Three for quite some while now. Where the other two companies in question, Sony and Microsoft, have lunged at each other’s throats with pretty much the same rinse, repeat formula of producing games and outdoing sales, Nintendo has taken a path less traveled.
By introducing consoles like the Switch that have been modular in design and revitalized retro games that are sure to give your nostalgia a run for its money, the Japanese have clinched an audience of both young and old to cement their place in the video game industry.
For those of you who are ecstatic about games that come out on Nintendo’s stellar selection of consoles, we’ve got just the listicle to tantalize your taste buds.
Hop on down below and let’s check out some fantastic options for you to try!
Tetris Effect: Connected
Who knew Tetris still had the power to shake things up and introduce a version of itself that would draw in a huge pool of players? Tetris Effect is an amalgamation of both game and therapy. With its collection of sounds, visual effects, combos, point system, and fun coop gameplay, Tetris explains why it can never be truly toppled as the best game of all time.
Another area where Tetris shines is the graphics it utilizes. Made for next-gen consoles, the developers of this game really went all out to introduce a beautifully crafted game with mechanics more or less similar to the original but with lots of new, crafty elements to make it a visual treat.
Super Mario Odyssey
Can’t have us talking about Nintendo and not have our favorite plumber fit in somewhere. Super Mario Odyssey is a super take on the adventures of Mario, reimagined in 3D and with a plethora of new stuff to check out. The worlds introduced in this game each have their own specialty to them, just like the supporting characters. It wouldn’t be wrong to say that no Mario game in the past has elicited as many smiles as this title solely because of how hip, upbeat, and fun Odyssey is. Mamma Mia!
Super Smash Bros Ultimate
An impressive testament to all that Smash Bros stands for. Nothing does a better job pitting friends against each other on a moving platform filled with assorted weapons than Smash Bros. The game escalates all that the regular version is known for and throws in a gazillion characters complete with their own unique abilities.
Keep in mind though that this is an internet-intensive game, as you’ll be matching up with players online as you fight your way through to become the very best. For staying ahead of the curves and making sure you encounter zero connection hiccups when beating down your enemies, go ahead and check out Spectrum. To get you invested a wee bit more, Spectrum Internet Packages are specially geared to help heavy network users, such as gamers, gain the edge with speed and zero packet loss. Check them out and see for yourself!
Sonic Mania Plus
Sonic Mania is a revisit of classic Sonic and his adventures in Green Hill, Chemical Plant, and other ye oldé levels. If you think you’ll have to bare the brunt of pixelated graphics then think again. There’s a reason why there’s a Plus etched alongside the name. The game gets a fresh coat of paint, reimagined levels, and upgraded badniks along with many of Sonic’s friends returning. Knuckles and Tails, the OG constants are joined by newcomers, Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel to venture out into the world, forever ready to take on Eggman and his nefarious schemes.
Hades
Hades brings back the golden era of rogue-like dungeon crawlers by introducing the genre in spectacular style. The game reverse engineers the whole point of a game by making you want…DEATH. The whole point of the game is to die, and since you’re basically the son of the God of Death, revive and then do it again. Every time you die, you come back stronger and the dungeons reset. That means every run is set up to be unique and there is no repetition.
Players get to pick helpful boons offered by the Gods of Olympus and elsewhere as they fight hordes of enemies hellbent, pun intended, on making the player submit in gory fashion. The game’s plotline is a classic representation of family pressure, daddy issues, and therapeutic hack-and-slash gameplay. Check it out if you want rage and gleeful nihilism to get the better of you.
That’s a wrap on all the games we have for you to try on the Nintendo. You’ll probably be playing these on the Switch so why not go ahead and buy some right now when Christmas/Black Friday sales are ripe and ready?
