Great list. Some other games that would be top choices for me are Night in the Woods, Crosscode, VA-11 Hall-A, Spiritfarer, Hades and Narita Boy, but there are so many more. This really is a great time to be a gamer.

My top 5 would probably be 1. Dragon Quest 11 - First Mainline DQ game and the reason I bought a Switch 2. Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince - I played many DQM games as a kid and this one is an excellent and surprising entry after many years of not getting official western translations 3. Triangle Strategy - Its Game of Thrones politics in a tactical game, i managed to get the golden ending blind which is pretty pog. 4. Super Smash Bros Ultimate -Its the staple game for the Switch imo, it turned nintendo directs into full events as even if the firect didn't reveal much, it was still worth it for the new character. The game was a staple in any gathering. 5. Live A Live - The experimental chapter system, fun music, interesting story and a vibrant take on the HD2D artstyle made this game unique and refreshing while also really easy to just pick up and play at anytime. Honorable Mention goes to Pokemon Scarlet because the story and open world setting really carried it hard. AREA 0 was an incredible part of the game and its such a shame that they refused to let it cook for a little bit more.

This is a wonderful list. OP1, OP2, and Triangle Strategy are replayable for me and absolutely beautiful. I agree on the Sea of Stars review, and 100% got the nostalgic feeling of playing a Chrono Trigger-style game of my 90s gaming growth. Well said on all parts.

I have been playing RPG's for a while. I played DQ1 on NES as well as FF the same way. So a few years back, when i started having problems at work, and was literally losing my interest in everything, including hobbies, i knew something was wrong. I was in target and picked up DQ11. I tried it, but just couldnt get into it. Shelved it for a bit and tried again several months later. This time it took, and i was very hooked. I realized that something i missed, was being transported to another world, where life wasnt nearly as complicated, bad guys were easy to spot, and there was the possibility of relationships, even virtual ones. That being said, i truly truly enjoyed the adventure that DQ11 took me on, as not only was it enjoyable, but helped me through a difficult time in life as well.

Octopath Traveller II is becoming one of my favorite RPG's ever. It checks all the boxes and I really haven't found anything I dislike about it. Interesting choice for Triangle Strategy. I'm having a hard time finding a strategy RPG to get me into the genre. I thought FF Tactics would've been a good intro to it but, I hated every minute of it and been avoiding them as a result.

I think 2 games in a series for just the top 10 ist to much. You should switch out one them for Puzzle Bobble Everybubble. : ) The Switch has so many good games. Ok, I think my top 10 are: Xenoblade Chronicles Definitive Edition, Puzzle Bobble Everybubble!, Metroid Dread, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Pikmin 4, Luigi's Mansion 3, Triangle Strategy, Ring Fit Adventure, Kirby and The Forgotten Land, Super Mario Odyssey Was going just for the exclusive ones.

I can almost always go back to BotW and it's DLC (TotK), but I do not think I would put them as number one but maybe in the top 20 easily enough. I think Curse of the Moon and maybe the two Octopaths would have to be near the top for me. Sadly played DQXi on the PS4, I own it on the Switch so one day I might do the 2d version of it. Besides that Disagea 6/7, SMT 5, XBC 2/3, Triangle Strategy and some of the remakes (SO2, Langressier 1&2, LaL, etc...) would be near the top. F-zero was bad back then, so not picking up 99. I did not like Metroidvania till SotN, so the two you numbered I did not get or am not a fan (metroid dread).
