The Switch has had a storming first year when it comes to software. It's hard to believe we've had so many solid-gold hits in such a short space of time - especially when you consider how barren the Wii U era was at times - and this robust performance means that anyone who is lucky enough to find the console underneath their tree on Christmas morning is going to be literally spoilt for choice.

Assuming you're in that position, picking the right games on a limited budget isn't easy. That's why we've put our heads together here at Nintendo Life (which hurt initially as Alex was too enthusiastic and head-butted everyone else) and come up with 21 must-have games for Switch.
