Post by: NWR_Neal on January 20, 2025, 09:26:49 AM

We venture into looking back at every game that Nintendo published on Switch.

As we enter Nintendo's next console generation with the Switch 2 later this year, we've been doing some reflection here at Nintendo World Report. The Nintendo Switch, launching back in March 2017, will go down as one of the most successful video game consoles of all time and over the course of the 8+ years it spent as Nintendo's primary platform, it had a dizzying amount of games released on it. Over the course of 2025 (at least that's the goal), we're going to look back at Nintendo's game output on Nintendo Switch, with multiple staffers and contributors writing up their present-day thoughts on Nintendo's games.

We'll start at the beginning, with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

The true hot takes here!

I recall former GameSpot reviews edition Pete Brown reviewing the game as a 7 on GameSpot (the expected fanaticism reaction followed).

I've finished the main game within a year of it's release. Try as I might, I think this game is worse than I will admit to myself. I've bought all the Xenoblade releases and expansions since then, but only managed to finish Future Connected. I think playing XB2 with a somewhat completionist mind set burnt me out from the series.
