Hi! I am the Casual Gaming Geek. I love using video games as a way to relax and escape the real world. Like everyone else who enjoys playing video games, I have my own opinions and thoughts about the games I play, and that is what I will talk about on this channel, my thoughts and opinions about video games. Sometimes I may do a formal, in depth review of a game, or other times I may just talk about games that I am playing, and give you my thoughts on them. It is important to note, these are MY opinions about these games. If your opinions differ, I would love to hear about it down in the comments. But please, be civil about it!
I Played Pokemon for the FIRST TIME!!!
For the first time ever, I'm playing Pokemon! I've been told that I play a lot of Mario and Zelda, and that I need to expand my gaming horizons. So, I decided to try Pokemon for the first time ever! Specifically, I am playing Pokemon Heartgold on the Nintendo DS (actually the MelonDS emulator), because my cousin said that was a good one!
Let's find out if these games are as good as everyone says they are!

Amazing list. I think this is 100 percent accurate.
You have great taste sir!
Metriod
You should Plat hollow knight. It's like 2d netriod
Wait you should play fire red
yoshi above mario oddysey is like putting teletubbies above breaking bad
Well I’ve never seen breaking bad. But I get your point
Anyone told you you look like Tom Holland's older brother?
Nope, I’ve never heard that before!
Totk
I love most of the games in your list, however, there are others outside of the Zelda/Mario games that are way better. Try exploring other games and it might surprise you. I opened my options to the Fire Emblem and Persona games for the past couple of years and I regretted not playing them before. There are also a ton of wonderful indie games like Hollow knight and Cult of the Lamb.
Hollow Knight is on my to play list! I have played other games like Tunic (the switch version) and I really enjoyed Octopath Traveler. But yeah I realize I should expand my horizons.
Put some respect on the divine beasts.
Crazy that Metroid Dread isn't on this list... and Mario Wonder should definitely be in the top 5. If you got those Yoshi and Kirby games above Mario Wonder then they have the be some of the best games ever, cuz that's how good Mario Wonder is. Only downside to Mario Wonder is that it's so short. I beat it really fast and I'm not an expert gamer.
I just started Mario Wonder, and it feels a bit too much like a Kirby game. Flashy but with easy linear levels. Mario 3 and Mario World are my favorites.
1. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe 2. Super Mario Wonder 3. Tears of the Kingdom 4. Super Mario 3D World + Bowser Fury 5. Xenoblade Chronicles 3
1. Luigi’s mansion 2. TOTK 3. Botw 4. Kirby and the forgotten land 5. Mario kart
1. Breath of the Wild 2. Dragon Quest 11 3. Tears of the Kingdom 4. Persona 5 Royal 5. Pokemon Sword or Animal Crossing
@@xdinorun I never have played Pokémon or animal crossing
@@ZdinoYT2 yeah I was gonna replace it with odyssey but I couldn’t edit it for some reason lol
@@xdinorun I love Mario odyssey
Add pikmin 4 and animal crossing to the list for me. I remember playing ipikmin 4 all day during my days off from work all july 2023. Finished it august of 2023, ended up loving it.
Xenophobic 3
Do you mean Xenoblade 3?
good review
guy said tears of the kingdom as best game of all time 😂😭😭😪
Yep! What do you think is the best game of all time?
I disagree that totk is the best switch game but skyward sword is underrated 100%
Understandable. What’s your personal top switch game?
Nice video but a very boring list
For real. He rather put a Yoshi game then Mario kart 8
Botw was also the reason i got a switch
I love this tier list it explains why you love it and logical reasons made me really enjoy this video (505th subsciber)
Love this game, got the dx version with ocarina of time christmas of 1998. They made me a diehard zelda fan.
The GBA version on virtual console and nso is superior simply for the inclusion of all eReader levels.
That is true, I forgot to mention the eReader levels
How did splatoon not make the list !? 😧
That’s because I’ve never played Splatoon
I'm very happy that you decided to play this amazing masterpiece! Can I just know how you record your Nintendo Switch? Can you explain in details please? Thanks in advance and enjoy the game 🎉
I use an Avermedia Live Gamer HD 2 capture card, connected using PCI-e. For software I use OBS Studio. I personally have issues where there will occasionally be weird audio crackles and pops, but I think that’s from my motherboard.
@@TheCasualGamingGeek Thank you so much for all the informations!
I can see how much you like Zelda games, but I just have one little advice for you: give a chance to the Xenoblade Chronicles games on Nintendo Switch! Play them in order 🎉
Xenoblade has been on my list for a while now, I just haven’t got around to it yet.
Xenoblade chronicles 1 is probably one of my favorite switch games, if not my favorite.
@@Avertan221 bro how did you play it?? I bought it and then ditched it an hour after cause the combat sucks
Skyward Sword! I had no problem with the motion controls on the Wii, but the HD version just made things even better. Even I can't deny the interruptions got a bit annoying and the text scroll was unbearably slow, so I'm glad the HD version fixed those.
10. Astral Chains 9. Kirby and the forgotten land 8. Mario Odyssey 7. Mario Wonder 6. Prince of persia: the lost crown 5. Nier Automata (its just sooooo good on switch!) 4. Breath of the wild 3. Tears of the kingdom 2. Metroid prime remastered 1. Metroid DREAD
Concordo com Tudooo
I liked Super Mario GALAXY better than Odyssey. I liked Odyssey too but playing Galaxy included in 3D All Stars was much more fun and I liked level designs was the definitive 3D Mario Experience for me. I also think Odyssey's hat mechanic is lazy, SMG transformations is a better idea for me:)
I get that, Galaxy is great! However, I don't like the Switch version, as my joycons never stay centered on screen so it makes pointing really difficult and annoying compared to the Wii
@@TheCasualGamingGeek I played on Switch for HD. U're perhaps right. Swimming/racing with the shark was painful. Still I am glad I played it, HD and visuals were great!
I find the Galaxy series incredibly boring. They play a lot more like 3D world than they do all of the other 3D mario games because of how linear they are, and I really didn't like 3D world or galaxy 1 and 2. I prefer traditional mario games like Wonder and SMW2 when it comes to linear Mario. Odyssey, however, was amazing! It's almost as good as 64 and Sunshine imo.
@@zacharycoulson3482 u got a point there. I still dont like odyssey, maybe the similiarity of linearness between smg and 2d mario platformers make me like it
My favorite switch game or at least within my top 3 is Metroid Dread.
Dread was really close to making my list!
What about DOOM eternal?
Haven’t played it. The only doom I’ve played is the shareware MS-DOS original.
epic!
My wife enjoyed this game overall. Probably not my speed but I like more intense games. I will say the graphics are a strong point here for sure! Let's get some posters/toys on that yellow wall! I know you got some cool stuff to show off!
It is a really nice looking game! And yeah, I know I need to decorate the wall, I’ve been meaning to for quite a while
*Super MArio Oddysey, Breath of the Wild, Super Mario Kart 8 Deluke and Animanl Crossing on that List for sire!*
Everyone has it's own opinions and I know it's all subjective....but your list is trash man
Hey it’s fine that you think so. What does your list look like?
I never understood why everyone loves Adventure and places it so high on their ranking lists. Yes, it was ground breaking at the time being the first "open world" game but it didn't age well. I place it down there with Atari's ET and Superman!
Wow this might be the first time I’ve seen someone say they’d rank adventure so low! What games would you say are some of the best on the Atari?
this is a solid list but the order is wrong mario odessey at 9? wtf anyway good list regardless
Admittedly is has been a while since I did a full playthrough of Mario odyssey. Maybe if I’d played it more recently my opinion would’ve been different and it might have been ranked a little higher
@@TheCasualGamingGeek you should its a masterpiece
I wish I liked BotW or TotK as much as everyone else but I just don't. I really don't get all the hype.
Same tbh but like you just gotta get sucked into the world and pretend to be a nerd then it’s cool. I got few hours on the first one
I always think of playing it and get excited about it but when I play it I get little bit bored
Is cool tho
Might play it now tbh 😂 haven’t picked up switch in months
I get that its not for everyone. I feel the same way about Pokemon and Animal Crossing! I know people love them, but I just don't get it.
Thank you for the awesome video!! Been on the cusp of buying Link's awakening (huge Nintendo fan and even more so Zelda) and this video sold me! Also your pacing was perfect, loved watching all of it. Can't wait to see more videos! :)
Do you play anything else than Mario/Zelda games? Play more games dude
Yeah a lot of what I play is Mario or Zelda. Not everything, but a lot. Do you have any recommendations?
465th sub ❤🎮

Here's my top 10: 10. mario odyssey 9. Metroid prime remastered 8. Pokemon Let's go 7. Mario wonder 6. Link's Awakening 5. Super Smash Bros. 4. Tears of the kingdom. 3. Mario kart 8 deluxe. 2. Metroid Dread 1. Breath of the wild.
Pretty solid list! Metroid Dread was close to being in my top 10, but it was just too hard. I still haven’t beat the final boss!
oh man, i almost gave up on that too. It is a very hard fight. Took me a few hours@@TheCasualGamingGeek
Bro, your channel is awesome 👌 .
This is an immaculate list
Not surprised. I had only a handful of games with my switch, but I played a ton! I was offered the switch with BotW when I was in the hospital... Mainly Mario Odyssee, Mario all stars, and my best game, BotW! Now, I'm waiting for the next gen nintendo to enjoy TotK on it. Can't wait!
I'd say its worth getting Tears of the Kingdom before the next gen comes out! Especially since there's no guarantee that it will be backwards compatible
@@TheCasualGamingGeek Well, I don't have the choice anymore since I offered my Switch to my sister last year with animal Crossing
Oh gotcha
Solid list
My personal top 10 would be 1. The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom - never thought I would ever put a Zelda game as my #1. But it truly is a masterpiece. With so much more things to do then Breath of the Wild 2. Super Smash Bros Ultimate - I’ve been wanting this game for so long. I started playing Smash Bros with Brawl. And I always wanted a Smash Bros game that brings back every single character. I mean Ridley, K Rool, Banjo, Sora. Can’t believe the amount of content in this game. 3. Super Mario Odyssey - I’m a huge Mario fan. It’s my favorite franchise. That first Mario Odyssey play through is something I’ll never forget. The movement and controls are the best in the entire series. The jumps you can make. It’s not my favorite Mario game. I like Galaxy 1&2 slightly more but I still love Odyssey so much. 4. Super Mario Bros Wonder - I never thought I would love a new 2d Mario game as much as I did. I grew up with the New Super Mario games, and have heavy nostalgia for those games but Wonder blows those games away. The creativity of the levels, and the wonder mechanic are just unbelievable. And the visuals are incredible. 5. The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild - it took me awhile to truly understand how good this game is. When I first got it I couldn’t really get very far in the game. But when I went back to the game a few years later and beat it. I understand now that the game is incredible. So much to see and do in Hyrule. 6. Metroid Dread - this game is amazing. It has by far my favorite boss battles in any game. And it is an incredibly hard but very rewarding game. Samus is so much fun to explore and the world is beautiful. 7. Pikmin 4 - I just beat this game and it is fantastic. I wish I got into the Pikmin franchise sooner. Exploring the world with Oatchi and the Pikmin. What an amazing experience. 8. Animal Crossing New Horizons - A very relaxing game, building your own little island. And decorating it, listening to the relaxing music. It’s a game that I can come back to every day. 9. Splatoon 3 - what a unique idea, when Splatoon was the big new IP on the Wii U. I didn’t really understand it and thought the idea was dumb. However when I got Splatoon 2 on the Switch. I realized that the game is incredibly fun. And Splatoon 3 is even better. The new weapons, and maps. Salmon Run being very fun as well. Very solid game. 10. Kirby and the Forgotten Land - I can’t believe it took Kirby so long to make the jump to 3d. But it was done so well, it’s like Kirby was always in 3d. I love the upgrade system. Such a great idea. And the level design is also amazing. Honorable Mentions - Luigi’s Mansion 3, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (not on the list because it’s just a Wii U port. But there is so much added content. It would be #2 if it was a new game on the Switch.) and Super Mario Maker 2.
Nice list! I've never played Pikmin, Animal Crossing, or Splatoon
Pretty based list
