M.K.Ultra:
I have to agree with you on all of those. I especially enjoyed Odyssey and Celeste. I have already mentioned the DK Country games re-released on Switch as favorites earlier so it's time to dig a little deeper.
I know this did not garner the best reception, but Runner 3 is one of my favorites on Switch. I found the difficulty and controls to be perfect for me, though I get that it might be frustrating to some. The music and art style were also a joy. Highly recommend this one, especially if you liked the earlier runner games. Hey, maybe Rerunner will get a Switch 2 release?

What are your favorite platformers on Switch?
Thanks to insanolord for the suggestion!

I played Hollow Knight on Switch, so there's that.  Won't elaborate since it's widely lauded and known.

Nine Sols is the metroidvania/Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice cross-over I didn't know I needed.  Rivals Hollow Knight in quality IMO. 

Sonic Mania is a special game to me, and I'm glad they at least did one go-around of classic sonic gameplay.  Beautiful reimagining of some classic levels too.

Pepper Grinder is a pretty fun if short time, but I didn't feel like I needed more once the credits hit.

I know The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa got some buzz, but the same independent dev's Fading Afternoon felt like a big jump in their beat-em-up system with its refinements coupled with what is a life management sim of a character slowly losing time from terminal illness.  It's a high pressure experience that felt like his most complete work.

Disney's Illusion Island is one of the most approachable 2D platformers in the metroidvania style and a lot of fun to play with family & friends.  Lots of features to make the game easier for individual players too.

Okinawa Rush is a bit unweildy but the arcade 2D brawler is such a cool experience, and the kung fu movie sensibility is a lot of fun.
