My top two games aren't surprising in the slightest. The third, however...I guess time flies while playing picross.
This is probably more interesting, and a good argument for the Switch itself as I used it pretty much 50:50 in docked and handheld. Whereas lockdown probably shifted things and bit more towards the former, my purchase of the Switch OLED later in the year probably encouraged me to play in handheld mode all the more.
My gaming time is down to 435 hours from 578 which isn't surprising as I've been able to go out socialising again this year but the stat I'm surprised by is I've played 54 games this year as opposed to last year playing 31.
The top 3 most played were Metroid in at number 1 and Zelda Skyward Sword and Pokemon Snap at 2 & 3.
It needs a Spotify wrapped like mood/vibe check though, Spotify described my taste in music for 2021 as defiant and angst lol. I want something like that so if you play loads of BOTW and Metroid it comes up with secluded wondering, play loads of DOOM and Mortal Komabt it comes up with testosterone pumping aggression etc
@dmcc0 Thankyou very much!
So my most played games are:
SSBU: 118 hours
Children of Morta: 22 hours
Stardew Valley: 17 hours
my total gametime went down to 202 hours from 987 hours last year, sounds like a healthy decrease.
also 60% docked and 40% portable.
Although with half of December added SMT V would have gotten second place with about 45 hours already

All I know is that My profile is probably the only one in the world that has Kirby star allies as my most played game of the year. I can thank my 4yr old for that 🤣

@BruceCM I've moved onto XC2! I never beat cynthia in shining pearl, so I'll level up here and there and grow my pokedex before heading back to beat her
After playing the GTA Trilogy and really getting into it again after all these years, I fired up GTA4 on Steam, but I still craved my hybrid play, so I fired up Saint's Row The Third and wow... this game is GTA in all but name. And honestly I think I like it more.
I'd played both Saint's Row The Third and Saint's Row 4 back when they released, but never spent too much time with them. Coming back after GTA makes me appreciate them in a new light. The gameplay is identical- this is PRECISELY Grand Theft Auto. But with PS3 era graphics, scope and QoL versus PS2 era, better humor, better characters, better aiming (with gyro, of course), better driving mechanics, better everything.
It's just GTA, but better in every conceivable way. I do remember Saint's Row The Third had frame rate issues at launch, but they patched in dynamic resolution which ironed out those stutters. And Saint's Row 4 looks even better (though personally I'm playing SR3 right now as concensus is its the best one, though I think SR4 is still up there from what I played).
So. Surprise holiday recommendation- SKIP GTA, PLAY SAINT'S ROW INSTEAD.

So I've just about finished Brilliant Diamond's postgame content minus catching Cresselia and doing the Elite Four rematches (which seem to be very difficult believe it or not). Don't really have much interest in completing the National Dex or doing the Battle Tower honestly.
Don't really know what I want to play next. There's a little over a month until Legends Arceus releases so I've got some time for my backlog. Can't decide between playing a few different shorter titles, or one to two bigger titles.
@JaxonH I never really got into GTA or Saints Row for whatever reason, but I always remember the mission in one of the PS3 Saints Row games where you had to devalue the property in a neighbourhood by driving round spraying crap over the houses 😂 I don't even remember how I came to play it - I don't recall ever buying it. Maybe a demo or PS+ game or something.
