Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Best first party Switch exclusive

Well, there's Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Luigi's Mansion 3, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Splatoon 2, and ÀRMS to name a few.



Around the Network

Super Mario Odyssey is the best.

Not sure I could name one. You limited the field quite a bit.
Remind me what "first party" is again? Astral chain was made by Platinum who is third party company.
But Nintendo owns the IP. So is that first party? or Second?

So do you want Nintendo owned, Nintendo made, only on Switch?

edit: Also does similar to wii u count? Like Pikmin 3, or Mario kart?

Games on Wii U like BOTW , Pikmin 3, and Mario Kart aren't exclusive to Switch, so those don't count.

Admittedly "first party" can be a blurry definition; I don't see a problem including Astral Chain as it's funded, owned, and published by Nintendo.



Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and 3



Hard to limit to just 1 but I would say Smash Bros.



tag:"reviews only matter for the real hardcore gamer"

For me it's between Mario Odyssey & Smash Bros



Astral Chain for a couple more days. Xenoblade 3 not far behind.



Bite my shiny metal cockpit!

Metroid Dread



Ring Fit Adventure

If hours played is something to go by, Smash Ultimate followed by new Pokémon Snap and Tetris99.
But I think Smash takes it. That game is larger than life in a way that is hard for anything to match.
