Just got a Switch after decades of PlayStation loyalty. (lemmy.world)

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!

Overcooked would be a good game to play with your wife.

Celeste is a good platformer. Shovel knight too.

You're a psychopath for suggesting overcooked. That will bring out the worst in people. I played with my wife and I heard words and insults come out of her mouth that I've never heard before in my 20 years of knowing her.

I've heard similar stories from couples as well. That's a game you play when you have a steady solid foundation of a relationship and you feel like breaking it a little bit.

4.8/5 tho. Fun game.
