This top 100 of all Mario Party games is surprisingly fun. It offers a singleplayer mode and a lot of diversity in the minigames. Even Amiibo are supported. Sadly the game has no online option though. Definitely a fun bunch of games to enjoy for hours.- XGN

Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is a real gem for the Switch. But there are some downsides. In handheld modus there are framedrops and the game suffers from the limited capacity of the console. Still, the 100 hours of gameplay are more than worth it.- XGN

Knowledge is Power is the best implementation of Playlink so far. The quiz is silly and fun, making it an ideal candidate for family game night.- XGN

UNO on the Nintendo Switch is a fun game, but it lacks multiple modes which can make it quite boring after a while. Fortunately the online aspect of UNO is quite good and will make you play the games for multiple hours.- XGN

Surf World Series tries to be a game about an extreme sport, but kind of fails in that aspect. Sure, the surfing is good and the tricks are fun to do, but it gets quite boring after a while and the game has not much to offer for replayability.- XGN

New Style Boutique 3 is a fun and expansive game where you change the world with the power of fashion. There's so much to do that you'll experience the busy life of a fashionista without knowing that hours have gone by.- XGN

L.A. Noire still is a great detective game. With 4K resolution and HDR support it looks better than ever. The strong ambiance and gameplay remains and all the DLC is included. Though not much has changed and some technical flaws are there, it kicks ass.- XGN

This game is boring and way too expensive. Kirby is cute but this game is nothing more than a couple of mini games.- XGN

Hidden Agenda fails to deliver on its potential. The game makes some poor design choices, making it hard to fall in love with this game. Hidden Agenda, nevertheless, gives hope for more non-party PlayLink games.- XGN

The Switch version of Skyrim allows for tons of hours of entertainment while on the move. With graphics that don't look too bad, even after all those years, it really shows the power of the Switch. Definitely one of the best Switch suggestions.- XGN

This add-on for the already great Snipperclips makes the game even better for a mild price. There is a ton of new content and the game is playable by four players at once now. This makes Snipperclips almost like the ultimate party game on the Switch.- XGN

The Sims 4 is a very enjoyable game which will give you a lot of tools to be creative in creating your own Sims and their lives. The game gives exactly the same experience as the PC version, though the controls are terrible. You'll hate your controller for it.- XGN

Lego Marvel Super Heroes gives you the feeling that you are saving the Marvel world. Chronopolis is a beautiful designed city and has lots of content. However, the annoying camera and lack of innovations are a pity in this otherwise great game.- XGN

Obviously, DOOM cannot match with the graphical power of its counterparts on other consoles, but it still is DOOM running on a Nintendo Switch. The Joy-Cons are not sufficient for a FPS, but the overall experience is a good and gory game on the Switch.- XGN

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon add some great things to Alola. The games are bigger, longer and better than Sun and Moon.- XGN

Star Wars Battlefront 2 manages to deliver a great multiplayer experience that the previous game couldn't. Although the campaign is relatively short with its 4 hours, the online portion makes up for that with fast-pace action.- XGN

Episode 5 of Telltale's Guardians of the Galaxy, the final episode, is one of the weakest of the series. It moves too fast, leaves out too many details and feels kinda rushed overall. Even with an epic end fight, this can't save the episode.- XGN

Rogue Trooper Redux doesn't fit the Switch. The gameplay is dated and boring. It's not very playable in handheld mode.- XGN

Payback is a nice mix of elements. Police chases, races, drag, off-road and pimping your own car. And off course there is a lot of speed. But there are a few major misses too, like the forced grinding. Still, this is a solid entry in the franchise.- XGN

Just Dance 2018 is a blast to play for young and old. The newly introduced kids section brings old and new songs to the table for the smaller ones, while the rest of the game delivers a wide variety of popsongs. Every dance fan can eat their heart out.- XGN

Sonic Forces is neither the best nor the worst game starring the blue hedgehog. It's mediocre at best with spectacular action, but blunt characters.- XGN

You should definitely play South Park Phone Destroyer if you like the TV series. As the New Kid you battle through the streets of South Park in a card collective game. Though the new take on this genre does get repetitive, it still provides fun. For free.- XGN

Football Manager 2018 is still the best and most complete managers game. The new features are really nice, but they aren't as innovative as we wanted to see. It would be nice if Sports Interactive takes more risks for Football Manager 2019.- XGN

WWE is back again, but this time the game doesn't offer what we expected: the same bugs and glitches as last year and a terribly frustrating reversal system. It offers a lot of modes and is graphically improved, but that just isn't enough.- XGN

Syberia for Switch is a beautiful game with a great story. While this game sometimes looks dated, this is a classic that you should play.- XGN

If you're searching for your inner troglodyte, look no further. Caveman Warrior is a 2D platformer that you can play with friends in local co-op. Although the balance seems off, eating dinosaurs, nazis and robots in chaotic, action packed gameplay is fun.- XGN

Horizon Zero Dawn The Frozen Wilds looks and feels familiar, but does introduce enough new elements to keep the rather short story interesting. Although the DLC can’t match the original games quality, it's still worth your time.- XGN

Sledgehammer did a great job with this compelling story about the fierce war. The new game dynamics with crisp cut-scenes and smooth gameplay will keep you intrigued from begin to end. The fraternity feeling is bigger than ever in SP, HQ's and zombies.- XGN
