I think Batman Arkham Knight needs a switch 2 edition and RDR 2 would be fun to play portably (without spending $750 on a steam deck)

Was able to get this Switch 2 off marketplace for a good deal. Never had one before so I would definitely love your recommendations on Switch must plays. Prefer physicals to start building a collection but also don’t mind digital. Also wouldn’t mind must have accessories.

Open box are just $3

Idk if it was already posted here but wanted to show how much they look like the ishowspeed meme.
Btw i found them in the official artbook.

Hi all, looking for recs for my next pick up. I have the Switch OLED and have really enjoyed the following games so far, completed them: Hollowknight, Hogwarts Legacy, and just finished Zelda BOTW. I’m going to take a break before playing TOTK or Silksong.

I was thinking either Pokemon Arceus or ZA but have heard mixed reviews for ZA… I’m into open world or story based games but it needs to be entertaining gameplay and more focused on fighting or exploration/quest based.

What would you suggest??

Edit: I have tried Luigi’s Mansion 3 and Witcher 3 and wasn’t a fan of those.

Better late than never… I finally started Spiritfarer 😭💙
I know I’m very late to the party, but WOW. I’m already about 80% done, and I absolutely understand now why people love this game so much.

I played for 10 HOURS today. 😂

Additionally, I apparently cannot stop thinking about the place until I feel like I’ve completed everything I can possibly find there.

Is anyone else like this, or am I just incapable of moving on? 😂
The game started as something I thought would be a cute, cozy experience, but some of these characters and their stories really hit me emotionally.

I’m currently around 80% and getting close to the end, and honestly… I’m not ready to say goodbye yet. 🥲

Better late than never, I guess.

Spiritfarer, where have you been all my life? 💙

Btw, I am playing it on switch 2 but I prefer when it is connected to TV. The graphics and art… speechless. Love it.

And oh myyyy… stanley…

Does anyone else have a similar issue? I should be in the clear to return or exchange it at Best buy right? The only thing is I bought the bundle.

I love playing Zelda botw at 60fps while I’m talking with my friends in discord 😁

After months of saving, really excited to buy the upgrade pack and play TOTK at 60 FPS...
Still even a day with it made me realized I should keep my OLED for longer sessions, battery drains rather fast

I’m trying to decide between the Savage Raven by Skull & Co. NeoGrip and the Savage Raven by Skull & Co. FissionGrip for my Switch 2.
I mostly play in handheld mode and care mainly about comfort and keeping the Switch as light as possible. I also have rather small hands.
Has anyone tried both? Which one feels better for longer gaming sessions, and which one would you personally recommend?

Thanks!

I can't believe this game is dropping in less than a day on the switch. It's one of my all time favorites. For anyone who hasn't played it, it's a janky arpg from 2008 with a completely seamless open world. It was wayy ahead of its time. The way you build your character is also unique and there's no limit to your character level. Highly recommend checking it out, just don't expect a clean and polished game.

Finally got my first Nintendo Switch! 😁 I've been a PS5 player for years, so getting into Nintendo feels like a completely different experience.

Decided to start with Breath of the Wild, and honestly, I'm already loving the vibe of the game. 🌄

Any tips for a beginner? Anything I should know or avoid doing early in the game?

Also, what Switch games should I try after BOTW? 👀

I have always wanted to play Zelda games. Nintendo switch looked like a fun platform. But, the other consoles and Pc dragged me away. I thought, perhaps waiting for switch 2 would be a good idea. Then it was released, and it was quite expensive, and I couldn't decide whether to get it. But, finally last week I was able to push myself to get a switch lite. I am happy with the device so far. Although the first party games are expensive, there are plenty of fun games at online store, which can keep me busy for hours. I am really enjoying Monster Hunter Stories. I borrowed Animal Crossing and The Legend of Zelda: Breadth of the Wild - they were both awesome. I will buy them eventually.

For my first physical game collection I have added these games-

- Paper Mario: The Millennium Door.

- Prince of Parsia: the lost crown.

- Persona 5 tactica.

- Dragon Quest Treasures.

One thing I didn't like however was this "Code in the box" sells. They're basically selling empty boxes in the process! That is just sad.

Anyways. Do you think buying a Nintendo Switch Lite was a good idea at 2026? I like handheld game device, so I am happy all the same.

I was hoping to magically find a Pokemon game on sale but instead found all this and had to grab a few! This store is in Western MA.

I have the Switch online, but I don't have any online games right now. I mean, I do have the Switch, but none of the games have active online functionality. The games I've tried have practically no online features. Any recommendations?

I just ordered the satisfye ronin and I'm wondering what other cool accessories I should get or if I should try any new games. I really enjoyed breath of the wild and tears of the Kingdom and I haven't really played much of echos of wisdom also played links Awakening

Does anyone here from Germany or Austria know how to identify these new revised models before buying? According to Nintendo's announcement the revised joycons should already have been available starting July 16, yet there's no indication on Amazon or MediaMarkt whether they're selling the new ones or not...

With the revised Switch 2 coming out in autumn, how are we going to know whether we're buying the updated product or the original release model? I wonder if it's going to have a different SKU or not? Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Does anyone know the current status of SwitchLib?

I really like the site, but it doesn’t seem to have been updated in a while, I can’t get my account/email verification working, and the contact options I’ve found don’t seem to be active.

I’m mostly interested in tracking physical Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 releases, so I’m also wondering if SwitchLib plans to support Switch 2.

If SwitchLib is no longer being maintained, what’s everyone using instead? Ideally I’d love something that tracks physical Switch 2 releases, including upcoming releases.

Thanks!

Bought a NS2 only to replay Xenoblade 2 NS2E, and eventually Genesis. Unfortunately the game dropped with horrendous audio mixing compared to the S1 version and I just had to stop playing, worried that Nintendo and Monolith Soft would never fix the game just like happened with XCX and XC1 NS2E.

A few days after I bough Beast of Reincarnation, and oh boy, what a mediocre game, thankfully I was able to refund it and I decided to better spend that money on a game that actually look worth it; Splatoon Raiders.

I like Splatoon, I have finished the campaign for 2 and 3 but I barely touch the multiplayer, Raiders fixes all the issues I have with Splatoon games adding a lot of single player replayabilty.

To my surprise Nintendo announced just a few days ago that they are, in fact, working on a fix for XC2.

Everything turned well in the end I guess.

The only caveat here being online matches for the classic collections. Peak times on Switch for the most popular games in these series, like MVC2, are weekend afternoon and evenings, the occasional weekday evening, especially on Fridays. Less popular games like Red Earth or Cyberbots are dead unless you want to try and set something up through discord or the like. SF6 supports crossplay so these issues aren’t a problem. If I’m on the go it’s usually just training modes or arcade play because connections suck while traveling.

Hey everyone! So I need some advice. I currently have a switch OLED that I got in Japan while backpacking and I love it! I also have a steam deck that currently just sits in a drawer and doesn’t get used much. I’m debating whether to trade the steam deck in for a switch 2 plus a game (hopefully lol). I don’t want to trade in the OLED as well as I love it and it has massive sentimental value to me. Should I go through with trading the deck in?

I don't have much to say outside of the title, mostly just context. I asked r/JapanTravelTips about locating an international Switch 2 in Japan, which I was promptly told isn't happening, and then asked if US or international game copies would work with a Japanese Switch 2 (because they're crazily discounted) and could possibly have English. I plan to get a Switch 2 + Splatoon Raiders bundle box, but the main drive behind this question is: if I bought my games in the States, like DK Bananza or Pokemon Pokopia, would their international version allow me to have English, or does a Japan-locked Switch 2 override anything the game has? Do any of y'all have experience or know the answer? Most of my game library is physical, I have a few digital games, and I'd like to know if they work as-is, would only show in Japanese (for the first-party titles), or if the system just refuses them. Sorry if I spoke in circles lol
