I see tons of games that are interesting, but the price tags are crazy. I want a game I can pour hours into and my expectations are sky high for the 100 dollar price tags. The games gotta be peak, but peak is subjective and I wonder what you all consider worth it in the Switch II library as of today.
Which Switch II games are actually worth picking up?
sektori is 100% fantastic so fun
I think Kirby Air Riders kicks ass but some people bounced off it pretty hard. If you have the ability to try the first game it’ll give you a good idea as to if you’ll like the second.
Agreed. I almost bounced off the first game, but after seeing Sakurai’s Direct for Air Riders, with a better understanding of how the game mechanics worked, I went back to Air Ride and warmed up to it. Air Riders completely won me over, especially with Road Trip. Such a seamless integration of the formula into a roguelite-esque single-player campaign!
I love that it’s going to be a bunch of people’s first experience with Kirby Plot. “Oh these silly little guys are having fun! Oh no an existential nightmare!”
My wife got her money’s worth out of Pokopia. If the idea of a Pokemon/Stardew Valley/Minecraft hybrid appeals to you, it should be worth the money. It wasn’t developed by Gamefreak so it’s actually good
I mean, game pricing isn’t solely a Switch 2 problem. They cost the same as any new game on any other platform, beside for Mario Kart, which I agree is a mistake and not a good look.
I enjoyed Bananza and Pokopia. Bananza had me wanting to keep playing the entire time and Pokopia held me for 100 hours. Depends what kind of games you like. I also enjoyed Mario Kart, but you’d probably want that and something else, like DK to split your time.
Unfortunately there just isn’t a lot of games for the Switch 2 specifically right now. A lot of games have an upgrade for the Swtich 2 like, Subnatica, Skyrim and No Man’s Sky.
