[@yis8fire]

I played the henry stickmin collection, great game that can pass the time, really recommend it (its on pc tho)

[@MrJimithee]

I came across "Evil Nun" on the Eshop last night... Looks like a tongue in cheek version of Alien Isolation, kinda comic-horror... Anyone know if it's any good?

[@ppbunt]

40 deaths on a boss? I would have uninstalled that game 20 deaths earlier 😂 GG for the perseverance!

[@SwitchUpYt]

It was pretty brutal!

[@imatree666]

Bro U need to check Elden Ring!

[@ppbunt]

@@imatree666 No way! I’ll avoid that while I still have some form of sanity 😂

[@imatree666]

@@ppbunt I hate this game but I have 840 hours on steam. Me and souls games are such a toxic relationship 🤣🤣🤣

[@Wil_Dsense]

Unistalled… lol. Mad Lad.🤣

[@Arkhalizard]

FINALLY SOMEONE THAT KNOWS COLT CANYON. I love Colt Canyon, it's such a gem. Definitely one of my favorite roguelikes. Also I believed I requested you all to review Solar Ash on the Nintendo Switch some time last year. I am STILL waiting for that.

[@Shopokun]

My wife and I play Danganronpa Together (Which has some similar mechanics as Ace Attorney) and in the scenes were there is no voice acting I voice act every character as close as they speak in game as I can, which I love doing and my wife prefers because she doesn’t have to read, that’s how it’s worked for us 😂

[@melaniapina6368]

Ah, Ace Attorney…anyone else remember the feature that allowed you to directly scream “Objection!” in the microphone of the 3DS? And look absolutely crazy? Good times 🤣 great list anyway, very interesting games, thanks Switchup 😊

[@LordTenebrum]

Wow, that Heidelberg game is a neat surprise! Wanna play it someday when I am more free of my current backlog

[@Rinnk]

Interesting games, indeed. I'm playing at the moment "TLo Zelda Link's awakening". It's such a gorgeous and positive game, it's really lifting my spirit up and putting a smile on my face every time I play it. I love the art direction they took with the remake, the mini games, including the "super Mario side scrolling parts", such a wonderful little game.

[@HallowedMiscreant]

Playing that too. Nintendo games have a way of putting a smile on your face

[@Rinnk]

​@@HallowedMiscreant true that! 😊

[@KoalaYummies123]

Colt Canyon looks fun especially if co-op mode functions well! Thanks for shedding light on these lesser known titles!

[@slimdylan]

Ace Attorney, I remember the DS days. One of my favourite detective games of all time!

[@huzcer]

And even on the GBA which had the original trilogy that was then re-released on the ds. They are now on mobile too which is a great way to play with the touchscreen actually

[@JohnD131]

Just started the original Phoenix Wright trilogy recently. It feels like curling up with a mystery book or an episode of Law and Order. Relaxing brainteasers.

[@tomforan5391]

So glad you talked about Heidelberg. I studied abroad there, so I was naturally intrigued. Might finally pick it up now. I cannot convince my wife to take the Ryanair flight to go back to the real place. The Heidelberg castle is a beautiful ruined castle, which the French blew up a portion of. Funny then that you play as an invader.

[@ataridc]

Trash Punk def got some Blazing Beaks/Nuclear Throne vibes

[@BunchaNothin]

Metaloid and Heidelberg remind me of games i would play on a weekend afternoon as a kid. Especially being games that are likely too challenging for me to play well! Games like this are a great way to tap into nostalgia while still being new experiences.

[@SwitchUpYt]

Yeah, exactly that!

[@liquidaria4454]

I never thought I'd ever see anyone mention Heidelberg 1693! I had so much fun with it but man was it tough!

[@sebastiandeandrade6566]

I am glad you enjoyed Heidelberg 1693, took me 3 years to make it and it always puts a smile on my face if someone gets at least to the second Boss „Wallenschwein“.

[@Apache-Helicopter]

That Postal game looks like a lot of fun.

[@ty_sylicus]

Nintendo DS? Nah mates, the original Phoenix Wright Ace Attorney was 2001 on the GameBoy Advance! I wonder how many of us got to experience it that way? I only have the games on 3DS. Still haven't played them all!

[@hindsightdocumentary8351]

I've been playing Legend of Zelda: Minish Cap on NSO. In regards to game purchases: this year I've really buckled down on a goal: Finish 10 games before picking up a new one (with the exception if FFVI goes on sale I *will* be getting it). I only bought one game this month so I'm doing alright!

[@SiobhanR28]

Yay!!! Chilling out with a cider and SwitchUp. Anyone else SOOOO excited for the Persona 3 remake? Hoping it will come to Switch/2 at some point too 🎉

[@BunchaNothin]

The switch is the only console I have right now, so I'll have to wait for when the Persona 3 remake is ported. It's pretty much guaranteed it will be ported at some point, but my money is on the switch 2. I don't mind the wait, I still have persona 5 and 4 to complete, so I'm sure it'll be ready by then (considering how long they are 😂)

[@stuartmccrea]

I see a SwitchUp video, I hit the thumbs up instantly because I know that regardless of the game/s about to be discussed, Mark and Glen are going to deliver great content. Here for the banter as much as the bytes. Thanks lads.

[@SwitchUpYt]

Cheers mate!

[@kcant65]

I have been interested in a few Red Art games. I really enjoyed Skautfold: Shrouded in Sanity and Sword of the Vagrant. It would be neat to see you guys review Helvetii(has good steam reviews 9/10) if you have time. I will check out Heidelberg and Colt when I get the chance. They have 8 pages of switch games on their page so I can't list everything I would like to see your review or cover.

[@jesssealey6552]

About to play the Pronty demo and am intrigued by Stray Gods as its devs have roots in Dragon Age narrative and the VO actors/singers are quite prolific in the industry. Hopefully they prove enjoyable. May all your games be good ones. Cheers Gents!

[@nicked_fenyx]

Stray Gods is *excellent.* Honestly one of my favorite games from last year, and one I've been wanting to replay just to try some different choices. It's such an innovative game, and as a musician, the way they made different musical genres blend together was pretty darn impressive. Good stuff.

[@geordienumber9s2]

40 deaths, on one boss… more lives than a cat this one. I love the determination to see that fight through

[@Ser-Smiley]

I've been playing Enter the Gungeon, Vampire Survivor and Star Ocean 1st Departure lately. 😊

[@mrpmp5384]

This was a mental video. It’s great seeing such joy from you all in a variety of games. I’ve been playing RDR1 and just recently finished Sonic Superstars and Dave the Diver. Trying to get my backlog down.

[@laramontz]

Ace Attorney, my first ever video game series 🥹 It’s been a while since I played, so I hope I’m remembering correctly, but if you’d like cut scenes and voice acting, The Great Ace Attorney is so fun! The premise is similar, but with twists to the investigation mechanic, and you play as Phoenix Wright’s ancestor!

[@TinaCentaurides]

i have to say these are really Hidden Gems Thank you Mark Thank you Glen

[@elguason2159]

Postal brain damage looks funny

[@jess2109]

I'm impressed. Quite the perseverance with 40 deaths on a boss. I usually get frustrated after 5-10!😂

[@asilver50]

7:10 I love the childish giggle 😂

[@Christophoronomicon]

Fantastic video as always! Really informative too, as I only knew 1 of the 6 games shown here! As for my interesting games, I've got 2 this time (well, 1.5 really). The first one is Another Code Recollection. I've finished playing the first part and have now started the second part, and as someone who never played the original games but really wanted to, I'm having a blast! It's the only game that managed to get my attention away from Tears of the Kingdom, so that's saying something! And yes, I can see the clunky parts, and the puzzles aren't really difficult, but I think the experience and the story are more than worth it. Gonna go back to it again tonight as I cannot wait to see where the story goes next! As for my second interesting game, I'm cheating a bit as it's a game that I've only played the demo of so far, but it's Crymachina. Basically, it's a kind of hybrid hack'n'slash/ARPG with a big visual novel component (in fact, even by just playing the demo I would say it's a visual novel with RPG levelling and hack'n'slash sessions thrown in). The graphics are very anime inspired (in fact, the demo has an actual beginning credits section, complete with anime video and song), and could be very detailed if it wasn't for the heavy dynamic resolution scaling that happens whenever something is moving (and even sometimes when they're not! I hope the full game has seen some patching to help a bit there), and the story very much wouldn't be out of place in an actual anime (which is fine, I love anime!). But what makes that I'm definitely going to buy the game at some point, despite me not being the type for the hack'n'slash genre normally (and definitely not the audience for the waifu aesthetics of the game) is the depth of the lore that is already visible just from the demo, and the fact that even after just a couple hours in the demo I already sense that there's a lot of unsaid stuff that is going to move the story around a lot! I'm hooked by the worldbuilding and the promise of quite a few twists and turns in the story! So yeah, Another Code and Crymachina. Two games that couldn't be more different, and yet in both cases what's pulling me in is the story 😁.

[@gt3racer2187]

Love the Ace Attorney games. If you are looking to get into the series, start with the original trilogy. The third game in the trilogy is the best game in the entire series. The Great Ace Attorney games (especially the second one) are also amazing. Still really hoping we see the Edgeworth Investigations games port over.

[@bkillinm]

Colt canyon looks like a lot of fun, kind of reminds me of bug hunt on the pc back in the day, also 1693 has some seriously beautiful pixel work. The effects for the snow fall are looking juicy juicy juicy

[@sebastiandeandrade6566]

Thanks, I made the pixel art and animations 😊

[@danchadwick182]

Genuinely haven't heard of any of these - great that you always seem to bring potential hidden gems to my attention! Cheers guys👍🏻

[@bbloomfield6497]

Being intrigued by the art direction of a Postal game in 2024, I did not see that coming.

[@Skruffee]

Love the use of the serpia tone graphics in Colt Canyon

[@DB-vi7jb]

Kept seeing Cut Canyon on and was surprised this is the first time you guys are playing it.

[@MrAllansito]

Postal brain damage looks crazy fun, getting vibes of Duke Nukem + Plants vs Zombies 😂

[@RapidPhantom293]

As someone who is a huge fan of the postal games, i wish they would release both postal 2 and postal 4 on the nintendo eshop already, so many people want postal 2 on modern consoles.

[@Mr.Vetkoek]

Oh wow that's a wonderfully diverse list. I could listen to you guy chatting about games all day 🔥

[@SwitchUpYt]

Cheers man yeah this was a nice list for sure. Mark

[@dogred431]

Wait what? 90s FPSs are "Boomer shooters"? When did this happen? Why was I not told I'm now an OAP?!?!

[@Tony-t7o5g]

Great list of games. Colt Canyon looks interesting. Great art style.

[@huzcer]

quite difficult I thought.

[@SquirtleSteve]

Man the year 1693 looks like it was a dope time

[@mayralex18]

you guys always manage to find the most bizarre niche games ever. i love this series!

[@abetterjulie]

I don't think this is out on the Switch yet, but I'm dying over and over in the cutest game ever of Ogu and the Secret Forest. Deceptive, but fun! Thanks for another great video.

[@adamsmith868]

I've recently played Tinykin which is a collectathon platformer with some Pikmin elements, really enjoyed it. One of my favourite indie games.

[@jamiemoet9091]

Some real good looking games here guys! Heidelberg and postal brain damaged 😅😂 loved your rampage in postal Mark, you even tried to karate kick the BBQ off the cliff too 🤣

[@iouiscolingreen1373]

Started playing Lil Guardsman having never played a game like it because i thought I wouldn't like games like it. I'm laying it with my fiancé and loving it, the voice acting is stellar, its really funny for a game at least and from the very start your choices very clearly affect the story. Its such a good game i cant recommend it enough to anyone i think everyone would like it at least but likely love it.

[@lhethert]

Have never heard of any of at least 3 of these! Great to hear about some things that are semi-uncommon.

[@donjohnson7768]

Been sick in bed all week in rainy Vancouver but at least I’ve got the lads at switch up to cheer me up with another vid!!

[@Ser-Smiley]

I really want to try the Ace Attorney games someday.

[@Anni_ka]

Go for it! They are incredibly charming and fun, and also super nice to play in short bursts, since the cases are somewhat separate 😊

[@SiobhanR28]

They are top of the league. Writing is incredible and have the best music ever. Worth your time

[@Ser-Smiley]

@@Anni_ka I just checked them out at the eshop. There's a bundle version! And there are a bunch of Ace Attorney games in it! Wowzers! I may get that bundle when it goes on sale. If... that is IIIIFF i have the extra money to get it that is. 😂

[@BunchaNothin]

They've been on my wishlist for a while now. I may have to get one since my current backlog is stuffed with challenging and stressful games.

[@Ser-Smiley]

@@SiobhanR28 i love games with good writing and music. Sigh... looks like i'll be adding the Ace Attorney games into my switch someday soon after all.

[@paulblyth9793]

I’m finally sinking my teeth into Octopath Traveler 2. Great stuff

[@trashteamtv7314]

Ace Attorney series started out on Gameboy Advance, and I feel ancient writing that xD

[@jemmadavies3226]

Excellent video guys. I don’t mind a difficult boss, but I think I’d have launched it before that many deaths!!

[@jonk4255]

I’ve been playing Gylph, a lovely little puzzle platformer.

[@philnolan9903]

Great video, love me some Blazing Beaks

[@pheonix9372]

Starting Disco Elysium for real this time and really enjoying it. Def a different take on a CRPG. I wasn't sold on the mushy water colour visuals at first but now, the muddy sort of look really suits the tone.

[@jaydig2]

Postal is always a good laugh. Glad to see it still alive and well on the switch

[@sevensyns7732]

Colt Canyon has been in my backlog for quite a bit. Just recently finished Figment, which was a decent game. I much more enjoyed the story rather than the puzzles and gameplay, to be honest.

[@jeffrey5976]

Colt Canyon is quite good. Will pick it back up at some point.

[@alexhanson7623]

Noticed red art have itorah up for preorder. How did you guys find it after picking it up i think late last year? Be cool to see your guys physical collections or end of year switch wrap ups. Maybe an idea for days of switch up christmas 2024!

[@mareymare1965]

So hyped to play apollo justice. Loved the trilligoy !

[@utpride347]

I've played MetalGal and enjoyed it so I maybe it's time to look into Metaloid: Origin.

[@ethangrant5061]

The layout in postal reminds me of the milkman dream in psychonauts

[@kevinphelps5807]

dang you pulled out some obscure titles there

[@squarestar326]

Heidelberg 1693 makes me think about the 1rst ghosts and goblins...

[@UndeadEggmiester]

I've thought about Colt canyon but I just can't get over that art style it's just to yellow and orange for me eyes to take

[@SwitchUpYt]

😂

[@JohnWestIV]

I'm actually interested in the three games from Red Art Games.

[@danschwartz7891]

Colt canyon is on sale in US anyways for 3.74 till the 16th of feb

[@Kraaaaas]

Colt canyon looks right up my alley

[@dazzianocolucci3538]

I paid peanut's for Blazing Beaks and always go back to it. Great game. Trash Punk might be my next bargain bucket addiction!

[@jesssealey6552]

Hey Mark do you think that Hollow Knight: Silksong might be delayed on purpose for the Switch 2? I wonder if Nintendo will announce anything on March 10th, Mario Day this year.

[@SwitchUpYt]

I don't think so honestly, I think it's just proved to be a massive undertaking for three people and they've probably doubled or tripled the size of the first game. Mark

[@jesssealey6552]

@@SwitchUpYt Good point! A small team can only do so much at once and to live up to the reputation of the first game will be an incredibly difficult undertaking. I've noticed across media, sequels tend to fall down when compared to the first or those that came before. Hopefully Silksong is what the developers want to create and proves an enjoyable experience for fans, when its ready. Thanks for replying Mark!

[@roro4572]

Postal be getting that 95% discount pretty soon!!

[@battleman3]

Looking forward to the Apollo Justice games, never played any of the Phoenix Wright games but it's never to late to start I guess 😂... Should I play them first?

[@yaldash3592]

I love using how long to beat to plan out the order I play games.

[@r_apt_ure]

Taking a break from Prince of Persia and finally started Immortals Fenyx Rising.

[@veerandgames]

Wait a minute....muskets in a platform? Yes please!

[@GmasterB89]

Haven't touched my Switch in a while because I was working on my Ps5 backlog but I plan to play some Switch over the weekend. Probably Red Dead and The Mummy Demastered.

[@FarmerSlideJoeBob]

Glenn can speak Heidelberg fluently in German🤔😂

[@brettpardue8786]

Hey guys I just found this out myself but if you ever go to mention Vigil the longest night in a video again it is currently delisted from all platforms😔 luckily I bought the game a couple years ago and still have my digital copy on switch but I've always thought that was such a hugely underrated game.

[@bayleyinc]

I do like the Ace Attorney games but not all that excited for this one. Now of they announced a port of Professor Layton Vs. Phoenix Wright, then I would be very interested. Plus that game is getting expensive now to pick up on the 3DS

[@shoked99]

Thanks for sharing some interesting games.

[@danielthomas5473]

Trash punk looks like the rogue like game where you are a duck or something other bird based character

[@sarasabotage986]

Colt canyon looks cool. I got trash punk when it came out, it's very fun if you wanna feel like a feral animal dominating like a human. Best way I can't put it 😅😅

[@SwitchUpYt]

Yeah it's a cool looking little game. Cheers Sarah. Mark

[@kcant65]

Oh I have been playing Ark lately to get over my no access to Palworld. Gotten pretty far this time thanks to an early Spino.

[@TheGoodGuy1919]

I want the old postal games

[@SwitchUpYt]

The old one is on Switch

[@AjanM2501]

I have the ace attorney on the DS, haven’t completed it yet.

[@xperiance7192]

colt canyon looks fun such cool gameplay for graphics looks like dont starve

[@richissac8916]

I’m all over Metaloid!

[@ashleyjones8620]

Where's the best place to buy physicals in the UK with lots of variety? high street or online.

[@SwitchUpYt]

thegamecollection.net has decent variety, Amazon also does although their website seems to hide a lot of the lesser known games. High street-wise, things are a bit thin on the ground these days. online is a better bet. Glen

[@ashleyjones8620]

@SwitchUpYt thank you Glen, I get where you come from with amazon, sick of seeing the same 10 games pop up 😂 thanks for your help!

[@ACoolDude.]

As a French I must say the first one looks pretty interesting 🤺

[@dylan91296]

I have been playing Mario Rabbids Sparks of Hope on the Switch. On the playstation still on ac odyssey. Will pick up atelier ryza 2 after finishing the dlc of ac odyssey

[@vidclarke]

Sorry gents, nothing floats my boat out of the selection today. 😢 You know what, there’s one game I played on PC a few years back that I love… Legend of Dungeon (Robot Loves Kitty) I’d really like this to get ported across.

[@gustavschaap9577]

Melee…Melee…potato…potAto…by the by, which game inspired the video thumbnail? Most of these were pixel-art games…

Yesterday was my birthday, tryna find game to get

[@nameless-zw8qh]

You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here

[@Nedwig747]

I feel like I'm committing a cardinal sin by saying this but I've never played a single Ace Attorney Game. Do they play mostly like a visual novel?

[@Genius1oci]

Never played ace attorney and I just can't get into the concept Im not the fan of static gameplay. But maybe I'm wrong and I should try it :)
