Nintendo Switch really does offer a lot of things: portability, convenience, and… games but of course. There seems to be always a new game released for the console. And amongst the pile, some are bound to be overlooked even when they are highly rated all while being relatively affordable. So here are some of the hidden gems on Nintendo Switch.
Of course, what is a to-play-list without a fighting game in it? Kidding aside, fighting games like Blade Strangers are pretty straightforward: fight until you’re the last one standing in the arena. An hour easily becomes 3 to 5 hours playing.

Probably one of the best shmup games out there. Once you are able to wrap your head around the grazing system, you’ll be golden. It has simple mechanics and great music too.

Play this with a partner, most preferably one that you get along well with because the cart won’t haul itself if you’re both screaming. Ha!

Again, another game that is best played with friends. But this one is like Dungeons and Dragons. If you are ready for some adventure with RPG and strategy mixed in, grab this game. It may not be too newbie friendly if you are quite unfamiliar with similar tabletop games employing the same terms and mechanics. But if you take time to learn about it, it’s easily enjoyable.

This is a gorgeous-looking 2.5D game both enjoyable solo and co-op. The puzzles are either easily solvable to “why did you get us get killed” and there’s nothing in between. From that description alone, you can imagine how chaotic it can get when playing with friends or siblings.

If you are fond of puzzles, basically racking your brain in half then this game is for you. It’s a dungeon crawler. What more can you ask for? It has combat, puzzles, character progression, storyline, and so much more. But you might get stuck! Take that as a warning or a challenge, your pick.

Speaking of puzzles, Syberia is one of the classics. It does show its age with the graphics and tedious movement. But if you can easily look past that, you’ll see its charm and wonderful story.

If you are craving an action-pack game, then this one is for you. Every run is different and solely depends on how you play it. Will you blitz through the levels with little loot and beat an “easy” boss? Or will you take your time to loot and upgrade to a god-like character and face a boss that is a spawn of evil in its own right?

Rhythm games just don’t go out of style. Superbeat Xonic offers wide range of songs from classical remix to progressive metal. And they are great and very repeatable. Nothing is more satisfying than to get a SuperBeat while playing and S+ by the end. Pop this game for when you need a breather from high-octane shooting and action-filled adventures.
