My Top 10 MOST PLAYED GAMES on Switch by HOURS

[@MetalJesusRocks]

People commenting that my stats are lower than expected. That because I'm always bouncing around. For instance all this week I've been on the PS5 and PSVR2. The week before it was all Xbox Series X with Dead Space remake, Crisis Core and Hogwarts. Before that it was all those GB / GBA homebrew games. Before that Steam games for the OneXPlayer2 review. Etc…Etc… And yes, I do finish games... just typically the 5, 10 or 15 hour long ones.

[@bobby_c07]

I hear ya, this week alone I've played on an OG Xbox, ps2, ps3, ps5 and a series X and the weekend is just starting.

[@ThriftSchool]

Makes total sense. Plus you also gotta live life lol. I have close to 100 games where I have 1-5 hours played on them and that takes up a lot of time right there.

Are you still using your original Switch? Play time doesn't transfer if you migrate between consoles.

Hollowknight I played through twice. No joycon drift. But it's definitely a favorite.

[@strawhatmonty22897]

Celeste and hollow knight I use the dpad for to A avoid joycon drift and B. They are perfect for the dpad. I do not know why people would use the analog on their joycons to play celeste or hollow knight. Cuphead is another game I use dpad for. 2d games unless requiring the other stick or are top down do not need the analog so why use it when using joycon controllers for those games?

Hi Jason! Great video as always! I have a request. I think you should rework/update your playlists. Since YT removed the "sort by oldest" feature, it's harder to access your older videos. I think a good solution would be a well-structured list of playlists. Thank you.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

You are the 3rd person to recommend that, so I probably should. I feel like I already have a bunch of playlists, but you are saying I need more? Or just reorganize them? Suggestions?

[@AyratHungryStudent]

@@MetalJesusRocks Yeah, it's hard to organize your videos, because you usualy talk about multiple consoles and different game genres in one video. And it's a lot of work. I would still go like this. - Games for X console/PC (if the video has mostly games for one console), where X - is either 1 console or more if you feel like grouping them. - Pickups (different playlists for home pickups, travel pickups, pickups with Reggie, pickups with friends) - Vinyl - Lets plays (any video where you play alone or with friends) - Other playlists like Gamer Eats etc... You should remember that most people have 1 console/PC, which they care about at the moment. I still enjoy watching all your videos, but I think most people would appreciate playlists that focus on 1 console or PC. It's ok to have 1 video in multiple playlists. I started watching your channel because I liked the Pickups with Reggie series. I had to manually look for them every time and it's not very convenient. Then I started watching all your videos from your first one :)

Don't wanna be negative but considering how large your switch collection is, that means you probably have 200+ games with less than 10hours. Hmmm. I know collectors are not completionist but definitely an advert for curation in my opinion

Dragon Quest 11 is probably one of the best JRPG’s of the 2010’s and the switch port is a LOVE letter to those fans. It’s always worth going back to because it’s just a beautiful game and the characters are just so lively!

[@paulelekes1883]

Breath of the Wild, Divinity Original Sin 2, Hollow Knight, Brawl Ultimate, Mario Odyssey, these reinvigorated my love of gaming in a time of unfinished botched game launches. I picked up a Steam deck and picked up Skyrim again, such a testament to quality that regardless of platform it immerses you and hits differently each time. Thanks for the vids!

[@latesleaves6759]

I respectfully think that your comment is shit.

[@cbgg1585]

Lmao, you have no clue about what you're talking about. Skyrim had issues Cyberpunk had when it first launched. It only 'grew' in quality because they took $hitloads amount of time to get it to full working order. Skyrim literally was one of the 'unfinished botched games' you were talking about xD

[@StephenTheZ]

I put 135 hours into the original version of Dragon Quest XI, and I am someone who has never enjoyed the series. It's the best "traditional" JRPG of the last decade imo. And I still plan to get the upgraded version someday and do everything in it as well. It is that good.

The sales are actually nice and having the ability to play all of these on the go is a huge bonus as I travel quite frequently, and it makes the time go by so much better. The Switch is a great little machine.

[@timesplitter8040]

Owning a large video game collection and also having a fear of missing out is what has you jumping around from game to game. You just need to settle down into one game and play it through without thinking about any other game. The feeling of nostalgia really kicks in for me whenever I actually delve into to a game and immerse myself. Because that's what it was like as a kid, you typically only had few games, so the hours added up. I mean I remember playing super Mario world for about a year and a 1/2 before I finally beat it.

[@MetalJesusRocks]

I jump around because it's my job to make KZbin videos and I capture all the gameplay footage for them. Plus I really like jumping around systems, old and new. Keeps things fresh and interesting.

Road to 1mil subs, Great to see you're still doing content on games . Used to watch you all the time when I was in high school, Still a big fan,

[@ThaiGoalie]

On the contrary to all the likely young kids, or I guess just people with no life/ responsibilities in this comment section - during this video I was wondering how you have that much time to game as a homeowning, married adult. I used to watch your channel all the time in college, and its been a while since I've watched a video of yours - but it brought back some nostalgia! Always enjoyed your content man. But I am now 27 years old, own a home, and am the sole caretaker for my wheelchair-bound Dad. I am currently in-between jobs, and even then I struggle to keep up with just upkeeping the house, running errands, paying bills, and helping take care another human - let alone finding quality time to spend with my girlfriend. I am honestly amazed at the time you have logged on just one and rather inferior console that is more marketed to children rather than the adult/hardcore gaming crowd. And I searched up this video because I was trying to find something decent to play in bed before I go to sleep at night, since it seems to be the only practical way to get some gaming in for myself these days. I know everyone's life is different, and my situation is a quite unique - but most of my close friends at this age have also put their love for gaming on the backburner to other responsibilities in life. Careers, kids, post-grad degrees, etc. I really am trying to figure out how adults with responsibilities find the time to even finish games anymore. The only other person my age who I see finishing games and gaming all the time, is a newly-wed female friend of mine who gets breakfast in bed from her husband at least once a week, and doesn't really cook or clean ever, and they live with their parents at the moment lol. You don't seem like the type, and obviously you are a very proactive and busy person with your KZbin channel. Honestly a video for how you schedule out your gaming would be greatly appreciated for your aging audience who I would hope are starting to own up to adult responsibilities in their late 20s and 30s. You also have no reason to "prove your worth" as a gamer to the critics in the comments here. If someone is past their early 20s criticizing the tremendous amount of hours you've sunk into this one console, that is honestly a little sad, and they need to get their priorities straight - unless their making a career out of playing games like you do. Anyone younger is just naïve in their own immaturity. Not trying to throw shade on anyone or the gaming community - I'm just looking to play and hopefully fall in love with games again in a practical manner at this age while balancing a family, home, and a job. I truly don't know how some people do it. And maybe I've just lost my passion for the hobby and don't prioritize it like others do.

Absolutely beautiful game, beautiful music, fantastic and likeable characters with a stunning world. Iv just grabbed the book collection too to keep immersed in the world! Lego City undercover is also amazing, I have been playing that recently and am pleasantly surprised how good it is for what you would think is a simple Lego game, very fun!

bro left the games on in the background to prove he plays them all

[@MetalJesusRocks]

That's the Filter option under All Games. You can do it too.

[@mattjindrak]

I swear one time I actually found the number of hours I've played on a single Switch game but I've never been able to find it again

[@ckhound1]

Thinking of picking up either Witcher 3 or Odyssey so I have something to play on my transatlantic flight coming up for my switch lite.

[@matthewmoney6377]

You need to finish Dragon Quest 11... the ending is worth it. Chronological speaking, DQ11 is the first game in the series

[@Misterfairweather]

This list is so timely, I'll be traveling the most I have in years and tossed my Switch in my travel kit again. I didn't realize Skyforce was available on the Switch I played it on my xbox previously and that'd be perfect for those hour long layovers! I've been playing Hades on it this month and putting a decent amount of hours into it, before I was playing Fire Emblem 3 houses. I probably have the most time into Smash Brothers on the switch though. I played that non-stop when it came out, and played a lot with my kid.

[@dartfrogger]

I was in the same boat as you with dragon quest 11.. then I picked it back up abour two weeks ago,and I am absolutely hooked. I haven't played anything since! It's really getting good and kicking into high gear

[@Blakeester]

Hello Metal Jesus, gott question for you... Do you buy and or keep physical copy of games sealed or always open them? Like with Xbox one or series x games do you have a sealed copy then also get the digital version?

[@zevluvjeff]

I notice that a lot people as they get older, they are less active. I hope you have a regimen to stay in shape man, I love your vids, been watching you before the pandemic, so please, as a friend, don't forget to stay healthy! We need you to spread love and info into the later years! One love!

[@Phipanjo]

"It is one of my favourite Switch games - ever." - Played 20 Hours...

[@MetalJesusRocks]

Yep. I bounce around a lot. Just finished Resident Evil 4 Remake on PS5, Horizon Call of the Mountain on PSVR2 and we’re 60+ hours into Hogwarts on Xbox Series X. 👍

[@martinevensen406]

Great video Jesus!

[@maxiuxoxo]

There something amazing about the fact that even after alllll these years and all the problems with Skyrim we still all play it so much

[@rafaelgonzalez8971]

I have 435 h in Breath of the Wild. At my second playthrough, now in Master Mode I have 225 h, which means something like less than 50% of the game finished (465 Kork Seeds, about 40% of the map visited and explored)

[@chambeet]

Pretty damn similar to my BotW stats. I’m amazed this guy didn’t have BotW in his top ten!

[@audiohazard1203nut]

I bought riptide renegade and GP2 because of you. I played both games and got all the extras and all the bikes. Very few games do I get that level of completion. Thank you for such a fun recommendation!

[@cloudboysmusic5223]

Another great Vid MGR keep up the good work!

[@AlexosaurusRex]

So... 10. Typoman: Revised - 45 hours 09. Trivial Pursuit LIve! - 45 hours 08. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - 75 hours 07. Art Of Balance - 90 hours 06. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury - 110 hours 05. Super Mario 3D All-Stars - 115 hours 04. SteamWorld Dig 2 - 125 hours 03. Tetris 99 - 205 hours 02. Super Bomberman R - 325 hours 01. SUPER MARIO MAKER 2 - 3,665 HOURS You read that correctly. I have over three thousand hours in Super Mario Maker 2. Also, a little thank you here, it was one of your videos where you talked about SteamWorld Dig 2 that spurred me on to get the game and I LOVE IT. You were 100% right in your review and I am very grateful that you turned me on to such an awesome game. It should be noted as well that just below this list at #11 is SteamWorld Dig (the first game) at 40 hours. But yeah, I play A LOT of Mario Maker 2. I might have more hours in Mario Maker 2 than you have on all games on the switch!!!

[@VivaSuga]

That's awesome. It's great when you find one game that you can absorb yourself in with so deeply that you always come back to it. I've never tried Mario Maker. Perhaps I should try it sometime 😊

[@AlexosaurusRex]

@@VivaSuga Honestly you get a never ending cavalcade of crazy levels. It isn't just stupidly difficult Kaizo stuff either. So many levels are just fun and pretty easy. There is really a lot there and I always find myself coming back, but even I am aware that 3,665 hours is a lot!

[@AyCorey]

Excellent video nicely done. Had to sub. Thank you sir

[@ezzwhitezombie666]

You gotta pump up those numbers, those are rookie numbers.

[@CG_9870]

DQ11 is a really long game but it is easy to play and easy to come back to. Each time you start up the game it gives you a quick summary of what is going on. It is best played at a leisurely pace. I got 100% in the game but I took over a year to complete it playing it off and on as I felt like it

[@iSalahMan]

No Zelda, this man never owned a switch

[@AlexGarciaSD]

Do you have the OLED? Once you play on that screen, you’ll never go back to the original Switch.

[@MatthewFritz82]

I'm a huge fan of your channel and I can't for the life of me understand how Breath of the Wild isn't anywhere on this list. WTF?!?!?!?

[@Matheheftchen]

Tbh I expected the LOWEST game on that list to have at least 50+ hours... I mean if you buy a game and play it only for some weeks actively, you already have 50+ hours in it
