OH SHIT I FORGOT

Buy Sonic Mania! There's bad DRM on PC supposedly

Sonic Mania is a no go.  I own it on PS4....  However.. portability on Switch....  We'll have to wait and see, because I honestly don't play games much while mobile.  I didn't get it on PC, because it came out on PS4 first, and I had no Switch at the time, obviously.

Fair play if you don’t want Mario I won’t try and convince you. Zelda is a classic, arms is very good as is Splatoon 2 and Mario Rabids. Mario Kart 8 is a must if you like your racing, Pokken is good but not as good as arms, and fire emblem warriors is a good bit of fun if not a tad samey. Oh and avoid Sonic Forces like the plague! Good luck and enjoy.

I'm not getting Arms, nor rabids.  Rabids are extremely obnoxious characters, and I dislike them for that reason.  I couldn't play that game comfortably.  I'll consider mario kart 8 and mario maker, however, i've not been impressed enough to buy mario odyssey.

However.  I've bought these following things after getting a switch. Pupo Puyo Tetris, 128 GB SD mini, Screen protector, 3D printed joycon gamepad grip for - and +. Indivual 2P gamepad grips, and a dock sock, with the triforce on it, cause why not?

I don't want to have the console scratched up, and I dont wanna pay 60 bucks for a controller.  I could have gotten it for 45 dollars at the time i bought the switch if I really wanted,  but not going to cry over that now.  At least I did get the console for super cheap already, and the deal was of course, like I said, a one time thing.  But, I'm not going to make a big fuss over 15 bucks either, so if I feel like I need one at some point, I will get it.  But, I'm finding myself to be comfortable just holding the joycons detached in each hand, regardless of the game.

Definitely give BotW a try, is really good

Xenoblade 2 and Splatoon 2 should be other good options

Jesus Christ people are answering this thread seriously? You write like a 10 year old spoiled brat. You bought a system that you seemingly know nothing about and you sound very closed minded. You won't play this or that game because so or so reason... I agree with xxain, please bring it back so someone else can enjoy it and stick to PS

You sound like an agreeable guy with a lot of friends.

Ok no need to be a dick jeez!

Again, I had a one time opportunity, for one day only, to get the console discounted at 100 dollars off.  If I'm going to buy it, why wait a day later, or longer, and no doubt pay more for it?  I would have just never bought one.  Ever.  Like every other Nintendo console that was released in my life.  I also got a holiday bonus at work, so even with the 100 dollars discount, it almost feels like a free console.  

I didn't need to do any research.  I didn't pay the price you paid, and I didn't have the time.  You and millions of other people already bought one.  Good enough for me, so at least it wont end up like a PS Vita, which I also didn't take back.

As far as playstation is concerned, my PS1, PS4 and my PS4 Pro are my LEAST used playstation consoles.  They collect dust.  PS1 is obvious, but I have already used my new switch more than either one of my dust collectors.  I play most of my games on PC, for better graphics, stability, and cheaper pricing.

So, I don't really appreciate the stick to PS thing as if I'm not allowed to own a nintendo, or even not supposed to game on anything other than a console.  I'm better than that.  I'll play Overwatch with mouse and keyboard, Batman Arkham Knight on my PC with a PS4 controller, and Tekken 7 on my mechanical keyboard.  I'll play my exclusives on console and multiplats on PC...  The salesman at the store told me to get an Xbox One X, btw.  I have a GTX 1080 Ti FTW3, paired with ryzen 7 1800x.  I'm not solely AMD, or solely Playstation, or Sega, I don't plant flags in the ground and call myself a PC gamer, nor a console gamer.  I'm not bounded by such trivial things...

 

I apologize if I was a little aggressive, I jut thouhght your op was worded weirdly. You just seem dismissive of some of the best games and I think it's smart to research a console before you buy it to make sure you will be able to get the kind of games you like on it. Of course you're allowed to own a Nintendo like anybody else I was just suggesting in a bad way that based on your op the switch might not be for you, but you seem invested in it now so fair enough.

 

so basically you want only 1st party only that's not mario: Zelda, pokken dx, zenoblade 2 and splatoon 2 should keep you busy for several months. If you can only get one , then Zelda absolutely. There are also lots of interesting indies, but do your research before buying please :)

Hope you enjoy your switch, no hard feelings please.



Your thoughts on the Switch are actually very reasonable, rather than anti-Nintendo. Many people would agree with you, even Nintendo fans I feel.

As for games, I would consider BotW and Mario Odyssey, even if you're not really interested. I've found it to be very fun personally, and one of the highlights of the system. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 looks good, and if you like JRPGs, it may be something you like. If you like shooters, you may enjoy Splatoon 2, though it is rather unique for a shooter, so it may be worth trying out.

And as for Puyo Tetris, I have the game too, so if you'd like to try some online MP, I'd be down for that.

You should do research before you buy a consoles for hundreds of dollars not after. Then on top of that just a lot of stupid stuff: You dont want to play the 2 highest rated games on the console, you bought Puyo Puyo tetris only to not want to play it because you have the PS4 version...? You dont wanna buy multiplats on it. Just take the damn thing back.

"I can't believe you bought a product and dared to ask a question about it. You should have asked first. Also, how dare you not like games that everyone else likes? You're screwing up our uniform Utopia, asshole".

Do you have a comprehension problem? I dont know how you got to where you are here. Did you mean to qoute me? Just in case you did; I am not chastising him because of what he does/doesnt like, but because he wants us to recommend him games as he closes the door on a nice chunk of avenues. If you are not going to be open to recommendations that you are requesting due to whatever stipulations you have up then you are better off doing your own research.  



Anything I would suggest might have been said earlier but I will try to summarize.

3D Platformer: Mario
2D: Sonic Mania
Warriors esque game: Fire Emblem Warriors, Attack on Titan 2 in 2018
JRPG: Xenoblade Chronicles 2, also I suggest Disgaea 5 if you haven't played it for PS4 yet, Atelier coming in March, DQXI in 2018
Racing: Mario Kart
Fighting: Pokken and Arms, Blazblue in 2018
Strategy: Romance of the three kingoms XIII and Nobunaga's Ambition seems to be JP only, but you can get for other consoles
Shooter: Splatoon 2

And many small games if that's your thing.
