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 classic of the punishing platformer, demanding pixel-perfect precision. Death is instant but the respawn is immediate, fueling an addictive loop of trial and triumph. Frustrating and thrilling in equal measure, tailor-made for the truly stubborn."
"The global sandbox phenomenon holds up perfectly on Switch, solo or with others. Building, mining and exploring infinite worlds stays as free and soothing as ever, and regular updates keep enriching the experience."
"One giant puzzle box where clues hide everywhere, in the space and in your notebook. The nonlinear structure rewards memory and deduction, all wrapped in a fascinating retro aesthetic. Demanding and at times cryptic, but tremendously satisfying to crack."
"A dazzling rhythm-action game where every hit lands on the beat, from Tango Gameworks. Its flashy cartoon style, offbeat humor and rock soundtrack make this a pure shot of energy from start to finish."
"A love letter to 8-bit platforming with thoroughly modern polish. Each campaign plays differently, from the steadfast knight to the bouncing beetle, and the level design stays exemplary. Tough but always fair, it's an instant classic of the genre."
"The definitive pre-World hunt, and it still holds up. Every weapon class feels distinct, Hunter Arts add real flair, and the farming loop digs its hooks in deep. Four-player co-op is where it truly sings, even if newcomers face a steep learning curve."
"The unlikely marriage of Zelda's world with NecroDancer's rhythm rules works wonderfully. Every step lands on the beat, turning Hyrule's exploration into a tactical dance. The remixed arrangements of classic themes are an absolute treat."
"A port of a landmark Western RPG that loses none of its narrative depth. The morality system and that central plot twist still land hard. A few bugs linger on Switch, but the writing and freedom of choice continue to command respect."
"The unlikely pairing of Mario and the Rabbids yields a surprisingly clever turn-based tactics game. Cover, chained movement and snappy slides turn battles into genuine brain-teasers, served with welcome offbeat humor."
"Behind its cute look, OMORI hides a dark tale of guilt and grief. Colorful battles contrast with mounting dread, and the revelations hit hard. It runs long and uneven at times, but it leaves a deep, lasting mark by the end."
"A soothing little gem. Climbing, gliding, and chatting your way across a quaint island makes for a few delightful hours. No pressing stakes, just exploration and warm encounters. Short, but the cozy glow lingers long after the credits roll."
"A roguelike where every footstep must match the beat or you lose your momentum. That rhythmic constraint completely reinvents dungeon movement and demands ruthless timing. Punishing yet brilliant, with a soundtrack that gets right under your skin."
"This sequel frees up movement by ditching the grid for looser, open exploration. The Sparks add varied powers and the planets brim with activities, making for a tactics game more accessible and colorful than the first."
"A genuine technical feat on Switch, this modern Doom runs with surprising fluidity despite some visual compromises. The pace stays relentless, the Glory Kills still satisfy, and it's a brilliant fit for handheld bursts of pure carnage."
"A collection gathering the handheld GBA Castlevanias, including the superb Aria of Sorrow. Save states, filters, and rewind modernise the experience without betraying its spirit. Essential for anyone who loves the classic metroidvania."
"A tiny fox, a vast mystery. Tunic hides a cryptic Zelda-inspired structure beneath its cute exterior, where piecing together the half-legible manual is the real quest. The slow revelation of its secrets delivers a rare and giddy sense of wonder."
"The leap to 3D lands beautifully, this roguelike pushes power scaling to gloriously absurd heights. The relentless clock forces tense decisions, and in four-player co-op the stacked-item chaos becomes downright intoxicating."
"A pure-speed shooter disguised as a card game. Every weapon doubles as a movement tool, and the goal is to blitz each level as fast as humanly possible. Chasing the perfect time builds a hypnotic loop, driven by a frantic electronic soundtrack."
"A reaper crow, an elegant isometric view, and combat as crisp as a sword stroke. Death's Door distils a melancholic mood and tightly interwoven exploration without ever overstaying its welcome. Short, dense, and remarkably cohesive in its artistry."
"This collection bundles two Victorian mysteries from the Ace Attorney creator, set in foggy London. The courtroom showdowns keep their theatrical tension, and the partnership with Sherlock Holmes crackles with wit. A long-awaited localisation finally delivered."
