Home console and handheld at once, the Switch redefined how we play: Zelda Breath of the Wild, Mario Odyssey, Mario Kart 8, Smash Bros. Ultimate, Animal Crossing. This Top 100 gathers the best of its huge catalogue, re-tested and re-ranked by RomWize, each title with its re-evaluated score, its versions, their rarity and their collector value.
"A space-exploration adventure built around a twenty-two-minute time loop. Progress comes purely from what you understand, never from gear you collect. Unravelling the solar system's mysteries delivers some of the most profound revelations the medium has produced."
"A high-water mark for the 2D platformer, fully realised in this definitive cut. The musical levels remain showstopping set pieces, and the hand-drawn animation is endlessly elegant. Played four-handed, it's a riot of fluid joy."
"A fascinating one-of-a-kind metroidvania. Its cryptic logic rewards observation over combat, and every secret unfolds into a trickier one. The contemplative pace won't suit everyone, but the eerie pixel-art atmosphere is utterly absorbing."
"A genre touchstone, sublime on Switch. The hand-drawn world and the melancholy soaking through Hallownest are unforgettable. The lack of a map in fresh areas can frustrate, but the exploration and combat are exquisitely tuned."
"The ultimate cozy escape. Shaping your island at your own pace, free of pressure, has a rare soothing effect. The content can thin out over time, but visiting friends' islands keeps a comforting warmth."
"Bethesda's behemoth, now portable. Wandering Skyrim anywhere you like is still seductive, and the freedom of approach hasn't lost its charm. The engine shows its age and bugs persist, yet the sheer volume of content remains colossal."
"A more ambitious sequel that's still breathtaking. The combat gains real depth, and the animation remains stunningly fluid. A few performance hiccups linger, but the emotion and staging sweep everything away."
"This compilation gathers all three remastered BioShock games, one of the finest narrative trilogies in gaming. Rapture and Columbia retain their full evocative power, and the ports run surprisingly well on Switch."
"A brilliant puzzle game where you decipher unknown languages through observation alone. Gradually piecing together a foreign grammar delivers a rare intellectual high. Clean art direction, mysterious mood: an original idea executed with near-perfect confidence."
"The 3D World port is flawless, and Bowser's Fury bolts on a punchy little open world that shows Mario can breathe outside corridor levels. Local co-op is still gleeful chaos, though the fixed camera betrays its age."
"Disco Elysium remains one of the most written-through RPGs ever made, a noir where every thought becomes a character. The Final Cut adds full voice acting, and hearing these voices gnaw at a drunken detective changes everything. Dense, funny, sometimes devastating."
"A deductive mystery of rare elegance: you reconstruct each sailor's fate from frozen moments. The monochrome dithered look unsettles at first then fascinates, and the satisfaction of completing the manifest is unmatched."
"A masterclass in mandatory co-op: every chapter reinvents its two-player mechanics and overflows with ideas rarely reused. The writing is uneven, but the design inventiveness and shared joy are simply irresistible."
"This remake restores all the shine to one of the most beloved Paper Marios: witty writing, endearing partners, battles staged like theater. The pacing occasionally shows its age, but the charm lands intact and the visual overhaul is gorgeous."
"The marriage of beat 'em up and roguelite works better than expected, each run rekindling the urge to optimize. Readability sometimes suffers from on-screen clutter, but the joy of hitting things stays intact."
"A short, personal game that captures the carefreeness of childhood with rare precision. Little challenge, but an atmosphere and a message that linger long after, carried by memorable sound design."
"The combat is still a precision delight: dodge, parry, strike, and you slip into a trance fast. The roguelite loop punishes without frustrating thanks to wild weapons, and the metroidvania backtracking makes you want to comb everything."
"This crossover weds Dead Cells's bite to Castlevania iconography with obvious reverence: whip, Belmont, remixed OST. The new weapons slot into the existing system without unbalancing it, and the homage seeps from every room."
"A visual and aural splendor that hits right in the heart, carried by a magnificent soundtrack. Short and light on challenge, it's worth it above all for its emotion and beauty, to be savored as a moving painting more than a demanding game."
"The improbable mash-up of three genres hooks instantly and refuses to let go. The one-more-run loop borders on unfair, even if the visual variety stays modest."
