The word "underrated" is thrown around a lot these days, but I genuinely think Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope is one of the most underrated Mario games out there. It takes everything that made its predecessor so great and fine-tunes it, making traversal even easier, power-ups more appealing, and character skills more defined.
It's very unlikely that we're going to get another entry in this series, if you ask me, so do yourself a favour and pick this one up if you haven't already!

I am not one to dissuade someone from playing any flavor of Persona 5, but…if you can play it on ANY other system, I suggest you do so. The Switch port is serviceable but intensely blurry and being on Switch 2 provides no benefit.
I hope Atlus someday puts out a patch, but till then…as much as I love P5R, the Switch version is painful.
Regarding the personal pick, I'd recommend Kingdom Battle over Sparks of Hope. In my opinion the first Mario + Rabbids game is better than its sequel.
As someone who has ONLY played Persona 5, should I pick up P4G or should I wait for the remake? What about P3R?
@RickStar I just checked the eShop, curious that Sparks of Hope is on sale but Kingdom Battle is not.
@dskatter I had no problems enjoying P5R on Switch. I have a gaming PC, but given the length of the game, I valued the portability over the performance (And Steam Decks are sold out until the RAMpocalypse is over).
@Kazman2007 It looks like this time they put on sale only the base edition of Kingdom Battle, instead of the gold edition that includes all DLC's. Weird.
I definitely recommend Kaze and the Wild Masks. It very much has the same flow and feel of the original Donkey Kong Country (which it's clearly an homage to). I wasn't originally that impressed just by watching video footage but once I played the game, it felt so satisfying. I've beaten it twice now. I even love the time trials, which is not a feature I typically enjoy.
@Kazman2007 Fair, it’s just that after enjoying P5 on PS4, the Switch P5R version felt massively lacking in the looks department.
It DESPERATELY needs a Switch 2 patch/update.
Also, if you don’t mind PS2 era graphics, P4G is fantastic.
@Kazman2007 I also played Persona 5 on Switch, had absolutely no issues whatsoever. I need to play it again (doesn't it have like, a new game+ or something? lol), but I've been distracted with other games.
But yeah, game ran and looked perfectly fine for me.
Why is it that Pure Xbox posts an easy to read list of games on sale, but Nintendo Life and Push Square post these multi page lists that aren't easily glanceable?
