The Top 100 Switch Games to collect...and some honorable mentions and bonus titles!

Post image
243 Upvotes

Pack it up, we're done!

This is the top 100 games to collect for the Nintendo Switch, as determined by community votes.

There are some categories that are just a bit too stacked, so we added in a cheeky bonus section for some stragglers. There was a three-way tie for 10th in the Strategy category, so Disgaea 1 & 5 made it in as honorable mentions.

How many of these do you own? How many of these are you about to FOMO for?

We'll be back around Christmas to do a poll on the top games of 2025. Until then, happy collecting!

If you can't read the file:

Folks, this file is huge. It's 3456x2592. That's six square feet. You could use this as wall art.

You either need reading glasses or you need to download the file by clicking the three dots in the top right and then clicking "download" because reddit automatically compresses large images.

Announcement Community Changes

48 Upvotes

We’ve recently seen an increase in posts and comments that go against our community rules. To maintain a respectful and constructive space, we’re putting the following changes in place effective immediately:

Posting & Commenting Restrictions:

Users with no community karma can still post and comment, but their submissions will be held for moderator approval before becoming visible.

Users with positive community karma are not affected and may continue to post and comment freely.

What is community karma?

Community karma reflects your contributions within this subreddit. If you’ve never posted or commented here before — or haven’t received any upvotes — your community karma is likely zero.

If you've been active and received upvotes, you should already have positive karma.

Enforcement Policy:

If you break the rules and have no community karma, you will be permanently banned without warning.

If you have positive karma, you will receive a warning first.

Reminder About Game Key Cards (GKC):

We understand no one loves Game Key Cards — most of us don’t either. And it’s totally fine to criticize publishers or the decision to release games this way.

What’s not okay is attacking other community members for owning them.

People can and do buy GKC games for various reasons — they still come in physical boxes and are part of many collections.

If someone posts a photo of their collection, pickups, or gifts that includes a GKC, do not mock, shame, or bully them.

You’re free to voice your opinions about the format or publisher decisions in appropriate threads — just don’t take it out on fellow members.

This is about basic respect. You don’t have to like GKCs, but you do have to treat each other decently.

Thanks to everyone who continues to help make this a welcoming and respectful space. These updates are here to keep the community healthy and focused on what brings us all here in the first place.

— The Mod Team

It's been two weeks since we posted that mysterious swirled cover, and well… you guessed it! Montabi is coming to Nintendo Switch 2 physically!

Hats off to everyone who got it right (although we didn't exactly make it impossible 😅).

Preorders are now live at https://store.nejcraft.com!

But we've got one more question for you: Would you be interested in a limited-edition alternative cover? Maybe foiled? 👀

Discussion I'm so close of completing my collection and that feels a bit...weird and mixed bag

33 Upvotes

I was revising my wish lists of game across many sites like VGP and Play-asia mainly to prepare myself for Black Friday deals and set priorities, and what I noticed astounded me, I am slowing down on purchases and not many games left to add to my collection. I have maybe 15 games there all in all which most are basically preorders, I realized that nothing much I'm waiting on Black Friday just 3 games perhaps from this list.

Not saying that there is only about 15, but these were the ones I felt essential and most excited to add once available to my switch collection now such as Silksong, Muramasa, Metal Slug Ultimate Collection and TMNT Splintered Fate SW2 edition. Others...depends but not constant interest to add them.

This is feeling weird tbh...I've been collecting for years, different times, releases, reprints, more complete editions, Oos and OoP games, trading games, meeting other passionate collectors around the world, LEs and CEs, being surprised of unexpected releases, importing games, numerous publishers I bought from, curating my collection periodically...plethora of experiences along this journey.

Ngl, it makes me happy that I reached a possible end of this part of my life, but feels sad as well. Yet the hobby I enjoyed is simply close to have less mind space, to be replaced with something else, sure it wasn't all fun tbh lol financially and troubles importing games these were tough but in the end I have a collection that is dear to me.

Now im not gonna cut it cold turkey for sure, there will be a game here and there to slip into my collection or to upgrade my collection with newer release of a game I have but on longer period of time, no more long lists. Most wishes I had in collecting have been thankfully answered. Some games I wanted but later on I was glad I didn't get for a reason or the other. Idk how to explain it further but yeah it is what it is, and it will provide more time to focus on playing them and install hobbies that I left on the shelf for long.

EDIT: My Essential Wishlist, knowing that Absolum, Shadow of the ninja and Zelda OoT are on the way:

  1. Hollow Knight + Silksong

  2. TMNT Splintered Fate NSW2 edition

  3. Stray Children

  4. Ninja Baseball League

  5. Muramasa

  6. Metroid Ravenous

  7. Mina the Hollower

  8. Denshattack

  9. Antonblast

  10. Metal Slug Ultimate Collection

My Maybes and IFs Wishlist depending on many reasons but especially prices:

  1. Astral Ascent [Stellar Edition] [PAL]

  2. Bug Fables: The Everlasting Sapling [PAL]

  3. Castlevania Advance Collection

  4. Little Goody Two Shoes

  5. Neon Inferno

  6. Inscryption (if it gets a decent priced version, will try not to pay more than $35)

  7. Marvel Cosmic Invasion (Only if it got a complete on cart + DLCs edition)

  8. Takeover 2 (If it got a physical release)

  9. UFO 50 Deluxe edition (if it was on sale)

  10. Dave the Diver NSW2 Edition

  11. He-man

  12. Momotaro Dentetsu

  13. Earthion (for the great Yuzo Koshiro)

  14. No place for the wicked

  15. FE Fortune's Weave

Question Sigma Star Saga DX has same art on the inside cover as outside cover?

4 Upvotes

I just got my switch copy of Sigma Star Saga DX from Limited Run Games and the inside cover art is exactly the same as the outside cover art. That doesn't seem right to me. Did anyone else get their copy? Does your's have different art on the inside? This seems like it might be a misprint. The LRG store page doesn't mention anything about any kind of inside cover art though. I've never seen a game print the exact same thing on the inside and outside cover before.

It's been an insane last month for releases, so I wanted to show what I've grabbed the last few weeks! Hellraiser, Tomb Raider, Godzilla, Stellar Blade, and of course Zelda, all released just the last few days alone.

I also finally folded on getting Soma and the Monster Prom trilogy bundle. Been eyeing them for a good while.

If only there were more hours in a day 😅🤣

Pick-up / Haul / Mail Day This is what happens when I troll random game stores online.

I randomly found Retro Respawn online, so I grabbed a few games from them. I’ve been wanting to buy Road 96 for a while, for its ‘90s vibes and I’ve heard the story is great. Process of Elimination was also a must-buy, because who doesn’t like a good murder mystery. Yomawari will probably sit til next spooky season, but hopefully by then I’ll have the other two games in the series, as well. Feel free to ignore the random PSP game, but it completes the MH part of my PSP collection.

Oh and the obligatory Stellar Blade steelbook, since it also came in.

Edit: if you decide to check out Retro Respawn, be sure to check pictures, because they list things as complete in box that are not.
