This last year has brought with it plenty of great gaming moments, and sometimes it's nice to look back over everything you've played and achieved during that time. A new tool from Nintendo has now gone live which allows you to do that - as long as your Nintendo account is based in North America, that is.
You can go ahead and visit the page right here; once you're logged in, you should see something like the image below, followed by a number of stats about your Nintendo Switch playtime throughout 2019. You'll see your most-played games, the number of hours you've spent playing, and even your most active day - which could well be a sign of the day you first got your console or the release date of your favourite title.
If you manage to get ahold of your results, feel free to share them with us in the comments below. We're hoping something similar will appear for those of us in Europe, but for now this is strictly a North American affair.

Well, it says that I don't have a switch. GG.
39 games played
272 hours total
Most-played games:
Astral Chain
Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night
NES - Nintendo Switch Online
Dragon Quest Builders
Luigi's Mansion 3
Haven't yet have the chance to try it (and won't for a few hours), although if I had to guess, It'll probably say something about Super Mario Maker 2, Fire Emblem, and Pokemon Sword
page seems broken, won't sign in - just keeps looping through a new page to sign in
I kind of miss that application the 3DS had built in. As well as the folders, the accessible albeit barely functional internet browser, and some other functions it got in later updates.
Nice. Sony did something similar earlier in the year, as I recall.
This is how many hours you played Nintendo Switch games in 2019: 596 HOURS
This is how many Nintendo Switch games you played this year: 48 GAMES
Most Played Games:
- Fire Emblem: Three Houses
- Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
- Mega Man Legacy Collection
- Dragon Quest XI S: Echoes of an Elusive Age - Definitive Edition
- Super Mario Maker 2
It's a good thing I did a lot of it for work purposes or I'd be a little ashamed of myself and my 2,359 hours lol.
NM, it's just windows edge that is dumb. Chrome worked np
@kopaka the same here
940 hours played. That's almost 40 days...
First game played: Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Most played games of 2019: Super Smash Bros, Super Mario Maker 2, The Sinking City, Deadly Premonitions Origins, Witcher 3 (Fire Emblem 3 houses is probably right behind, lol)
690 hours
72 games
Most hours played in November, 15th and 16th with the most
Honestly, some of these surprise me. Would swear I have more hours with other games than the ones listed.
Adding a quick edit:
I received an email from Nintendo showing my year in review info, as well as categorizing me as a "Core Gamer" based on my gameplay
First Game: LoZ: Breath of the Wild
Most Played:
Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
Saints Row: The Third
LoZ: Breath of the Wild
Hours Played: 771
Games played: 51
September was the most played at 172 hours, July was least played at 25 hours.
1400 hours played and half of it is Rocket League
Can't help but look at some of these numbers and think
Most played: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe
Hours: 795
Games: 66
does anyone else in here actively play MK8D? If so, let me know here in the comments section to perhaps add you as a friend. I still enjoy MK on a daily
My switch broke earlier in the year, and I dragged my heels for a while before sending it in for repairs. I took a 2 month haitus from gaming (probably my longest break since I got an NES)
Even with that, I still managed to rake up 750 hours. At least a third of that is directly because of Fire Emblem, though.
It seems I don't own a switch.
Must me some knockoff I own then.
EDIT: nvm I am stupid and didn't fully read the title as it is just for NA. Even if it showed my Hours they would be very low.
A graphic for my addiction? Yeah let's not add fuel to that intervention that is required shall we?
Hopefully they'll do this for other regions soon. I want to know but at the same time don't want to know...
Somehow I played 77 games (guess they count each NES/SNES Online game) over 702 hours. Most played was: Paladins, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Dragon's Dogma, and Asphalt 9.
Apparently I either have a high tolerance for F2P, or I don't have extra money for games right now...
First game played: Mario Odyssey
Most played games: Mario Maker 2
NSO
Smash Ultimate
Splatoon 2
Hollow Knight
957 hours
19 days of my life. Lets double that next year!
It's nice, but it mostly seems like a way for us to look at adds for games and Switch Lite. I mean, it doens't even list how many hours we played each game, unless I'm mssing something.
Built in 3DS log was better.
Well anyway, here ya go, I'm a sucker for stats & graphs.
Really want achievements style system on Switch. Hopefully this is another small step to one in a few years.
541 hours, 26 games. Fortnite led the way, of course, but my 3rd-most played game? BurgerTime Party!!!! Bet no one saw that coming! And Ape Out was #2 : )
427 hours, 52 games. Most played games were Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana, Dragon Quest XI S, LEGO Harry Potter Collection, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and Pokémon Shield. That last one is really strange to me because I know for a fact I played a couple games more (Link's Awakening and Yu-Gi-Oh! Legacy of the Duelist come to mind), but oh well!
My most played were Breath of the Wild, Moonlighter, and Let's Go Pikachu. Let's Go kinda surprised me, the other two check out though...
1,035 hours
Most played: Smash, Dragon Quest builders, Collection of Mana, Monster boy, and Astral Chain
This is the Police
Lego City Undercover
Mario and Rabbids
These were my top most played games. Was surprised, I thought that I put in more time into Mario Odyssey which I bought this year but apparently not.
@nimnio It's hard to explain w/o it happening so here goes.
First you want to copy and paste the URL, I don't know how to do it if it isn't online somewhere, Facebook, Twtitter, any ole' website will do, long as you can copy and paste something that ends in .jpg or .gif. May also work w/ .png, I forget.
Then you want to type a left square bracket, the letters img, them a right square bracket. This is what it shoudl look liek if the machine doesn't do something weird: [img]
Then paste the url.
Then after the url type left bracket again, followed by a slash, then img and right bracket. No spaces anywhere.
Sometimes it won't take, you'll just see that all typed out. You can then try editing the message and saving it w/o making any changes. Though i usually have to do that for youtube vidoes, nto graphics.
Good luck.
Witcher 3 as my most played game of 2019, followed by Smash Ultimate and then Fire Emblem Three Houses. Dragon Quest XI and Tales of Vesperia coming in at 4th and 5th. 1243 hours played this year so far
It said get a life
Dead Cells, Rocket League, and Super Smash Bros. Ultimate were my most played across 567 hours this year.
I feel like I played a whole lot more. Then I realize that's 23 and a half days... like I spent nearly a whole month this year playing Switch.
This is awesome, albeit completely inaccurate--Super Mario Maker 2 was definitely NOT my very first Switch game.
357 Hours
74 Games
Most Played: Civ 6, Football Heroes Turbo, Smash, RBI Baseball 19, NBA 2K19
(I think it might be the most times played, not the most hours?)
This info was LOTS of fun.
I love that Nintendo did this.
Does this include hours spent systematically browsing the e-shop? Coz if not then you can probably double mine.
January 2018; Mario Odyssey
Top Five: Fire Emblem 3H, Pic-a-Pix Pieces, Asphalt 9, ACIII, BotW
2019: 1,117 Hours, 117 games
Top month is September at 123 hours. Lowest is December at 49.
417 Hours played across 25 titles.

This is how many Nintendo Switch games you played this year:
138GAMES
I played, uh, 1687 hours. I don’t know if I’m proud of that or embarrassed by it.
Here are my stats:
Most played games: Smash, SMM 2, Link's Awakening, Splatoon 2, and BotW.
Hrs.: 1,331
Games: 36
July 31st, May 18th, and May 19th are the days I've most played on.
And I somehow managed to collect 593 gold points.
It wouldn't tell me that the first game I played was BotW and it says that my Nintendo Switch Journey started the 4th of September 2017 even though I remember getting it in May of 2018.
Mine is wrong! I barely touched AngerForce. Asphalt 9 on the other hand is why I've played my Switch way more in the last 3 months than the rest of the year. Clearly the game I've played the most. Weird.
250 hours on 39 games with the most played being DOOM (1993), still putting in more hours on the 3DS than the switch, I think in part because the 3DS does this on its own already with easy access.
lists my first game played as blank (it was Mario Odyssey)
Apparently my most played games were
Pokemon Shield
Super Mario Maker 2
Pokemon Let's Go Eevee
Dragon Quest XI S
And Farming Simulator Switch Edition
And I played the most in November. Sounds about right. For a total of 552 hours.
Fun!

Hours played: 1,337 hours.
Games played: 220 games.
Yerp.
1,039 hours
109 games.
Jeez nintendo.
I played for over 20 days... oh dear..
These stats make me feel like I should probably reassess my priorities..
934 hours as of today just this year, 38 games, top 5 played:
Fire Emblem Three Houses
Pokemon Shield
Civilization 6
Dragon Quest 11
Tales of Vesperia
Now if only we could see our lifetime stats, on the Switch itself, with specific hours per game - you know like we had on 3DS?
This can’t be right, it says my most played game is Hollow Knight, but I didn’t even finish it, and I have 60+ hours in DQ11 and DQ Builders 2.
453 hours, 49 games
1) Fire Emblem
2) Smash
3) Wargroove
4) Divinity Original Sin 2
5) Tales of Vesperia
Looks like I mostly waited for Zelda and Luigi's Mansion, also some Mario Bros. U in there beginning of the year. 160 hours played and 40 games. It's odd because I don't remember playing 40 games, unless it's counting SNES games, haha.
I miss the stats app Wii U had.
It does not show the first game I ever played on switch
I'm in the US, signed in, and the Year In Review page never loads to show my my info. Seems like it's down.
**Edit: got the email.
Hours = a lot
Top 3 Games:
Splatoon 2
Crash Team Racing
Trials Rising
was shocked to see i played 37 games but seems like that's on the low end here.
edit: btw guys the most played games order is random, reload the page and see. mine are ffix, hollow knight, valkyria chronicals 4, enter the gungeon, and bloodstained.
Not working for me. Just keeps loading the site and failing
My most played games were Smash Ultimate, Digimon Story Cyber Sleuth, Luigi's Mansion 3, Skyrim and South Park. Love stats like these. They're just fun.
Looks like I really love Pokemon Shield and Digimon, buy WAY too many games, and never have time to play hardly any of them. Thanks Nintendo!
My most played games were
Fire Emblem Three Houses
Xenoblade Chronicles 2
Smash Bros Ultimate
NBA 2K19
NBA Playgrounds 2
Fire Emblem: Three Houses
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
Minecraft
Fire Emblem: Warriors
Interesting list. 1198 hours over the year with most of them on my vacation post Fire Emblem Launch. Good times.
I only managed 78 hours this year. I know I’ve cut back on my gaming, but I didn’t realize I played so little lol
First played game: Breath of the Wild
Most played in 2019: Rocket League, Dead by Daylight, Cuphead, Pokemon Sword, Astral Chain
497 Hours, 56 Games
Most active day was Sept 27
My first played game is blank...lol
(it was Thumper)
1123 hours with 49 games
Smash Ultimate
Dragon Quest 11 S
Pokemon Sword
Final Fantasy X/X-2
Tales of Vesperia
Interesting and fun to see other's gaming habits. Just started playing Fire Emblem so I'm sure that will knock Vesperia off the list.
57 hours for me. 😂 well, what can I say, switch games just aren’t all that exciting. The numbers are tremendously higher on my 3ds gaming.
Just makes you wish they would give you the whole thing like 3DS did if they have all this tracked, even if it still only showed our most recent activity to friends. My first ever game played was Super Bomberman R...oh the memories, ha.
@ancientlii Are you sure?(not seen yet if you updated post again) Mine stays the same when I refresh and I'm positive it's pretty spot on:
I’m still baffled that neither my PS4 or Switch can give me these numbers directly.
@Lalivero hmm it definitely kept shuffling when i did it before 100%, can't seem to make it happen now but the current order i got is now gungeon, VC4, bloodstained, ffix, hollow knight.
Wish this worked for the rest of the world, but doesn't work for me being in the UK
@Bunkerneath Here's hoping we get an equivalent! My hour count will be pitiful mind you... I'm lucky if I have a couple of hours spare a week.
@hippoeater Same here. Tried last night and today.
It shows me my Tetris 99 results, but doesn't seem to think I own a Switch. So.
I probably toggled off sharing my Data with Nintendo back when I signed up for Nintendo Online or something.
Hour’s played 978, Games played 50, Gold Coins earned 2,355
Most played in 2019:
TWEWY: Final Remix
