I need Mario + Rabbids 2. I've tried playing XCOM to fill that void once I finished the first one, but it's just not as fun or as charming. It was the best-selling third-party game on Switch. C'mon, Ubisoft!

@sixrings Since you seem to be only interested in a handful of Nintendo properties, it might be best to skip the next system until several years into its lifespan. Owning a system early on is only worthwhile if you have a reason to be consistently excited about playing games on it.

In all honesty, if Switch wasn't a hybrid, I wouldn't have bought it at launch. I'd have waited a few years for it to accumulate exciting exclusives.

I’m gonna be honest.

Gods and Monsters wasn’t lookin too hot from the leaked Stadia gameplay. It seemed really rough controls-wise. Very loose and non-responsive... The exact opposite of what you would want in a game like that.

I know it’s still being worked on and you can’t judge it entirely by watching it but, my hope expectations went down the drain after seeing that. But maybe I’m wrong and it turns out great.

I'd rather play Genshin Impact than Gods and Monsters, honestly.

So would I.

But Genshin Impact is gonna a be while before we see a Switch release. Probably around the same time that Korean Switch Strategy game that looked too good for the system releases.

Has anyone beaten the final boss on curse of the moon 2? Phase 1 is pretty simple, but anyone have a tip of beating the 2nd phase?

Sniper Elite III on sale for just $13.99 on eShop
Deal too hot to handle

Jump all over that peeps. Sniper Elite III is seriously dope, has gyro aiming, competitive online, co-op online and local wireless for the entire campaign and 2 other modes including horde mode. And it’s one of the finest looking handheld games I’ve ever laid eyes on (not even kidding- this game looks gorgeous on Switch- nothing but full 720p in handheld mode too). And, it’s only 6 GB.

Need that Call of Duty itch scratched? This is a game for you. And if you need that Call of Duty Zombies Mode itch scratched, the Sniper Elite spin-off “Zombie Army Trilogy” is the game for you (or even Survival mode in Sniper Elite III). It also feels somewhat similar to Splinter Cell or Metal Gear Solid. So really, the game has a lot to offer (also, the kill cam is complete optional if you don’t want to see the cinematics of the bullets hitting, you can also set it to very frequent, less frequent, etc, basically tailoring how often it occurs to your liking).

It pained me so much seeing this release largely brushed under the rug at launch. It’s so good. Even the HD rumble of your heartbeat when holding your breath before a shot. This here is the pinnacle of third-party on Switch. I hope the fire sale is enough to finally convince people to give this game a go.

Well, I think they got that message from the fans back then, @Grumblevolcano .... Gods & Monsters would be a Switch game! Which is the game you're talking about, too, @kkslider5552000 It does seem like they have a few games to cover

@JaxonH Well, I meant that I wasn't interested in the game for the past 13 years, so I don't see that changing now. If I wanted to play it, I would've already done it.

Got my switch lite and 1tb card installed. Did a system transfer and redownloaded my digital games. Selling my OG model to my sister. Will rebuy one at some point in the next few months.

I'm probably being silly but is there a way for my game libary to look the same as it used to? Or do I need to insert every physical game cartridge I own one by one? I only have the digital games showing on the system currently.

I'm a fickle guy!

@Tangerine
Ya, the SD has no way of knowing what those games were, and most likely had update/DLC data too. You’ll need to insert the cart and update the game for any physical games you want shown on your new system. If it were just an SD swap there are ways around it, but with a new system, gotta pay the piper.

@JaxonH Thats a shame. I guess it doesn't really matter in the grand scheme of things!

Thanks for the advice :]

My sister will have ring fit adventure and the bioshock collection, along with a year of switch online. Also a 400gb micro sd card. Going to deliver it to her tomorrow along with a pro controller. Bioshock was her choice as she played and loved all 3 games while at uni on a friends console.

Her first console since the gamecube! She's 30 years old. I gave her a great price for it all. Its partly an early birthday and Christmas present too. That's the only way I could justify the price.

She plans to buy Zelda BOTW when she gets paid at the end of the month.

Hope she likes it/plays it a lot!

Me too! The switch is a great system but Nintendo is treating it like the WiiU right now.

Some folks need to understand that Nintendo cannot produce software, at a rate similar to 2017, year in and year out. There are going to be down-years between the up-years, and 2020 is a down-year. Relax, take chill-pill, let 2020 slip by and get excited for what may come in 2021.

Are the 4,000+ games on the eShop not enough?

How does any gamer not a have a backlog in this day and age?

Switch Physical Collection - 1,537 games (as of December 22nd, 2025)
Switch 2 Physical Collection - 4 games (as of December 8th, 2025)

@Ralizah Does look a decent price for such a collector's edition. Let's just hope the game delivers.

You guys had me at blood and semen.

What better way to celebrate than firing something out of the pipe?

"Are the 4,000+ games on the eShop not enough?"

Those peoples who still salty with Nintendo Switch no matter how many games on eshop, they will never get satisfied.
They want Playstation or Steam like games library with AAA games everyday, play the games as fast as they can then sold the games after finished, never searching the backlogs as they got distracted by upcoming games.

No good deed
Will I do
AGAIN...!!!

After the atrocity of WWE 2k18, this feels like the wrestling game we deserve. I even spotted Andre the Giant (Princess Bride fans, anyone?). I prefer more N64-style Arcady experiences over SIM anyways.

@JaxonH I've never really been into wrestling and I've only enjoyed 1 wrestling game in the past, WWF Wrestlefest in the arcade but there's an indie game on the way that looks amazing and I'm super hyped for. It also happens to be the official sequel to Wrestlefest.

This could be the wrestling game to beat them all. I believe it's the work of just one guy too.

Retromania Wrestling

"The digital preorder for RetroMania Wrestling is $24.99, but the Digital Plus version is also available at $29.99! With the Digital Plus version of the game, you'll receive a box, a full color instruction manual, and stickers (no physical media included). This pricing is for the pre-order period only. Once the game launches, the plus version for all platforms will be $34.99."
