Again, apologizes, the coffee is flowing through my veins. Dragon's Dogma is bringing me strong amounts of joy, playing this previously console-only game on a portable platform. It makes me hope that most publishers are considering bringing more of their back catalogue to the Switch. So I'm going to just throw out some favorites from the past twenty years or so in the the hope that one day I'll be able to play them again portably.

I'll limit myself to one per publisher, otherwise this thread would be unbearable.

Valve - The Orange Box
Atlus - Dragon's Crown
Sega - Vanquish
Cave - Cave Shooting Collection
EA - Mass Effect series
Bethesda - Fallout 3
Nicalis - Radiant Silvergun
Activision - Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 Remastered
Marvelous - The Legend of Heroes series
2K Games - BioShock series
Bandai Namco - Tekken 7
NIS America - Danganronpa series
Rising Star Games - Deadly Premonition
Kalypso Media - Tropico series
Capcom - Devil May Cry Collection
Ubisoft - Child of Eden
Square Enix - Sleeping Dogs
Koei Tecmo - Nioh
WB Interactive - Batman Arkham series
Aksys Games - Guilty Gear Xrd Rev 2
THQ Nordic - Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning
Focus Home Interactive - Divinity: Original Sin series

It's a guarantee that I didn't mention a game (or several) you'd like to see ported to the Switch.

Which would those be?

I want an updated super mario all stars, with 3D graphics and plenty of new stuff. Maybe updated versions of Donkey Kong and Mario Bros. To an even greater extent, maybe the game boy Mario Land series, not counting Wario land. That could be a cool set of ports/remakes.

Nice >:]

I do stupid stuff on youtube.com/mysticbros, so check it out if your bored or whatever.
Or don't, it's your time after all.

Any notable releases from the PS2/GCN and PS3/Wii eras would be very much welcomed, and upgraded Vita/3DS ports would be nice, too.

These are the kinds of ports, that even with some modern flourishes added to them, realistically shouldn't have any problems running great both docked & portably. To top it off, I think most of my favorite 3rd party purchases on the system have fallen under those umbrellas (Okami HD, Onimusha Warlords, & YS VIII are all top tier games for me, but Shining Resonance Refrain was pretty decent as well, and even Go Vacation was pretty good for what it is).

Currently Playing:
Switch - Blade Strangers
PS4 - Kingdom Hearts III, Tetris Effect (VR)

as a zelda nerd? twilight princess, wind waker, minish cap, skyward sword, and pretty much anything else. also, mario galaxy would be great? (i grew up on the wii, if you can’t tell!!)

The Kingdom Hearts remasters would be a really obvious one!

Fallout 3 witch was the last fallout to not be buggy as hell. Fallout 3 on the go would be awesome.

I've been thinking about Spike Chunsoft lately. They've really been stepping up their support of the Switch. Stein;Gate: Elite late last year, followed by AI: The Somnium Files and YU-NO later this year. It makes me wonder what the chances are of getting a Switch port of Fire Pro Wrestling World?

The Switch needs a quality wrastlin' game.

There are counts great games that would be lovely to have on Switch. The fact that the Switch as a platform is something I rank so highly means any game I like would be on that wishlist.

But I think most obviously I would like to see some Gamecube and GBA titles on the platform. Both are systems I have a lot of nostalgia for and are somewhat tedius to go back and play on original hardware, and haven't seen a lot of re-releases, if any re-releases at this point. I mean, have Mario Sunshine, MK Double Dash or Star Wars Rogue Squadron 2 and 3, etc ever been re-release on any later platform? Paper Mario Thousand Year Door, Tales of Symphonia?

Some GBA titles have been on virtual console on the Wii U, but that's hardly as convenient as it would be to have them on Switch.

Of all those games you mentioned I feel as though Bravely Default 1st & 2nd Collection are a lock.

We did have that teaser image last year that suggested as much.

Looking at my OP from five months ago, it makes me sad that Deadly Premonition is the only game I listed to officially get a Switch port. It's not as though third party publishers have disregarded the Switch. But they certainly could be doing better. The Switch is hot and money is continually being left on the table as several PS2/Xbox/PS3/360 classics have yet to be ported to the Switch.

I expect 2020 to be a third-party-port-paradise on Switch as Sony and MS wind down the PS4 and XBone in preparation for PS5 and Xbox Scarlett releases in Holiday 2020.
