Yeah, wish the console makers had this for their current platforms.

Switch has it somewhat but I think it resets after awhile.

Playstation (5) shows the number of hours you played when you go to the game's store page but not more than that.

I dont even remember Xbox having anything like it at all in its UI.

Steam (and 3DS so far) are the only ones who had a good set up of it.

3ds and Wii U both had it set up so conveniently.  I’ve seen it somewhere on my ps5 but I can’t remember where.  The switch resets after you don’t play the game after like 90 days or some shit like that.  And it’s very vague.  I’m like you, I love looking at the specific amount of time I’ve put in to a game.  And doesn’t the 3ds also give you your top 10 games with the largest continuous play time too?

It does not reset after any amount of time on the Switch. Where did you get that from? You can look in the data management section in the settings how long ago you played a game the last time. It says things like: not played, played in the last week, played a month/3 months/6 months or longer, played a year or longer ago. So I went and looked what game I hadn't played in a while and then oppened a game I hadn't played in over six months and it says I played it for 2 hours or longer. No resetting anywhere after a certain amount of time.

It does reset if you transfer all your data to a new Switch system and make that your main device. That happened to me.

My main issue with how it is on the Switch is that you only see the playtime of the 20 last played titles and not all at the same time and it's rounded.

You’re absolutely right, that’s what it was.  It only shows the last 20 titles.  After a title leaves the last 20 it resets though right?  It did that for me with paper Mario at least.
