The Nintendo Switch's remarkable success proves that raw power isn't everything. Its stellar library, boasting first-party Nintendo gems, a strong selection of AAA third-party titles, and a vast array of indie games, rivals most platforms in both quality and quantity.

Landmark titles like The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Odyssey, released within the Switch's first year, remain among the greatest games of the last decade. And the best might still be yet to come! 2023 alone saw exclusive releases such as The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, Metroid Prime Remastered, Pikmin 4, Super Mario Wonder, and Advance Wars 1 + 2: Re-Boot Camp. 2024 continued this trend with exclusive titles featuring Princess Peach and Zelda, and even two Mario RPGs.
