    I just got me copies of both Metroid: Dread & Ori 2, one of each for myself & an extra copy of each for my brother as well. I got Persona 5 Strikers and Ni No Kuni 1 & 2 for PS4 but I also want to get those games for Switch as well. I really hope that the recent rumors of a possible Persona 5 port for Switch turn out to be true. I know that you've been clamoring for a Switch version of Persona 5 Wood, hopefully it's finally gonna happen in 2022.

    Good call on the gift card idea. Whenever someone says they don't know what to get me, I just always say that you can't go wrong with a gift card. I have all the platforms too so it's even easier for them and more convenient for me since even if there isn't a specific game I want right now, I can add the funds to my account and keep it in case I'm short for a new game or if there's a sale where I can get a whole bunch of indie games.

    A game I personally recommend is Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, which is basically a perfect retro-styled game for people who want to play retro games but not have to deal with the issues older games have with four fully playable campaigns, a multiplayer mode and amiibo support, which is a good incentive to buy the 3-Pack that can sometimes be seen in stores.

Particularly the "maybe" category, ones that I could thoroughly recommend to the right person based on their taste. And the gift card is my go-to gift (and what obtend to recieve) since if its a well known enough game that I wanted chances are I already got it, my friends are similar. At least a gift card or cold hard cash means they're guaranteed to get something they want/don't already have.

    Great list. Always fun to see your reviews. Only disagreement I have is with your opinion on the Outer Worlds. I played through it and absolutely loved the Fallout in space vibe. Graphics might not be amazing but still looked good to me and I rarely had any problems or glitches. Definitely worth the $20 I bought it for at Walmart. 👍

    i bought a switch a few months ago. i think it depends if u play by yourself or with ppl. personally, the game i play by myself is Hades. Its not only actiony fighting but also has plot to it (stuff like potential love interests etc) thay isnt too overwhelming. its just enough to distract me for a hour or so. with my family i play Super Mario Bros U Deluxe. its rlly fun and u can play by yourself or with ppl

    Good list, the only one I would disagree on is The Outer Worlds. It is one of my most played switch games. While it is definitely the worst looking version of the game, I never had performance issues in my 3 playthroughs of the game or the DLC on my switch lite. I had more fun with this game than many others on this list. For fans of fallout style games I would definitely get this if they don't have another way to play it. It should be on your maybe list.

    Yeah I love the Outer Worlds on switch. I don't get how in his review of the Witcher 3 he's okay with those graphics but hates on the Outer Worlds. I get he doesn't have time to play a lot of games after his first impession (multiple updates have come out for the outer worlds since) but the Outer Worlds is one of the best adventure RPGs on the switch now. Especially for $20-$30.

    Well said. As someone who only has the switch, I loved this game. I played it a few months ago after the updates and the game was fine. Sure blurry and not as pretty as on other systems but enjoyable. I really liked the story and characters (especially Parvati). I played it for a like a week straight lol. Lots of dialogue choices :D. It's definitely a buy for me, especially since it's often on sale for around 20s.

    I bought my first Nintendo Switch recently, and apparently, I'm on the right track when it comes to picking games. The first 3 physical games I bought so far are Burnout Paradise, Risk of Rain 2, and Street Fighter 30th Anniversary Collection. I came close to buying the GTA Definitive Collection, but thankfully, I dodged that bullet and went with Burnout Paradise. Everything else I've gotten have been Switch Store purchases, including Guilty Gear XX R, Doom 3, and the 2016 Doom. I'm glad that there are more good games out there that fit my budget 👍🏽

    Great call on the Mario Party Superstars and Super Mario Party. Before I bought Superstars, I almost bought Super Mario Party. Thinking it was the latest one. I didnt even know there were two Mario Parties. Thankfully I looked into it and bought the right one. Another tip is dont base your pick on amazon reviews only. SMP has over 22k reviews and a 4.8 out of 5, but the game is trash and a testing ground for MPSS. Superstars has 1k reviews and 4.8 as well.

    SMP has more reviews because it's been out for longer. I wouldn't say it's terrible, but I feel many of the other games in the series (such as superstars, even if the boards are remade from past games) handle the boards much better than super did.
