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.
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.
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.
Classic HPGD - High Performing Gamer Destroyer
I actually got a little burnt out on DQ11 as well. I think I have 12 or 13 hours on it. I do wanna go back, but I think our sentiments are similar.
I heard it gets better! But it is a bit slow.

@@joeshlong9614 lol, he’s not a gamer!
Sky Force Reloaded holds a special place for me, as me and my dad used to play it all the time. He passed away not to long ago and I’ve not been able to play it since. To me it wasn’t just a game it was being bonding time well spent as he couldn’t move much. Great video’s as always!. They really make my day.
Hey! Maybe i shouldt ask but im curius. What was it that made ur dad hard to move? Grts
Dragon Quest 11 is definitely worth going back to! One of the best JRPGs of 2010s
Agree, I still go back to it.
Agreed and without annoying repetitive random encounters I hate those
People love this game and maybe one day I’ll get back to it, but I moved onto a different game after about 2 hours.
I have no idea how he only has 15 hours 😂 I have a LOT more
100% AGREE!! I put over 100 hours into the game and loved all of it!!
Breath Of The Wild, Splatoon 2 and Hollow Knight are the ones I put more than 100 hours into, and the last one even broke both my joycons, it requires so much skill and patience... Celeste is also a joycon killer.
Hollowknight I played through twice. No joycon drift. But it's definitely a favorite.
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?
is your d-pad broken or something?
Surprised to not see BOTW or Octopath travellers...
You can't kill something that was already dead.
I was just in Las Vegas this past week and consulted your video where you visited there and I really enjoyed going to the Pinball Hall of Fame as per your recommendation! Lots of fun pinball and arcade games there and way more cost effective than some of the other arcade places around! Also, I'm glad to see Ys VIII in your top played games here. Such a gem!
Have fun!
Had the Switch for a little over a year now & bairly touched it. Just recently picked up Metroid Prime Remaster. Going to start playing my Switch more often & catch up on all these amazing games released over the past 7 years. Can't believe it has been out almost 7 years now.
Do you have the Oled? Want to sell it to me?
i got one at launch and barely touched it after the first year because all my cloud saves got deleted but recently went back cause on xbox or playstation i just find myself chasing trophies/achievements too much that it stops being fun.
Im so happy you made this video, because the switch is my favorite console and my collection doesn’t stop growing! Thanks for sharing!
Another great video! I'm finding recently that I am mostly playing SNES, NES, Mega Drive and now Game Boy games etc... I lost an hour last night playing Tetris!!! 🤣 Nostalgia and portability work a treat!
I was playing Tetris Effect on PSVR2 last night! Never gets old.
Dragon Quest XI is 100% worth finishing. The story gets so good.
Metal Jesus, I hope you get to 1 million subscribers soon, you deserve so much more! Love and peace, my man! :)
Missed you at Sidequest Expo.
Heartbreaking.
I appreciate your versatility and appreciation of old school.
I do the exact same thing with my games! I love jumping around from systems and games from many arpg's, platformers, horror, shooters, etc. It does keep things fresh for me as well.
Yes, Métal J plays a lot with RPG's. I m like you, I prefer playing différent kinds of games. I m playing BOTW, the next one will be Mario O.
I originally got DragonQuestXI on the Switch and played it for nearly 30 hours and took a long break to play other games at the time then I got the game on Steam and was super hooked and finished the whole game 100% with all achievements at 155 hours, I really recommend going back to it, it became one of my favorite RPGs ever. I'm really excited for DQ12 and the DQ3 remake.
I just played and beat YS VIII on ps5 recently. That game just always pulls me in.
I played it for the first time last year, and damn it’s one of the best JRPGs I have ever played.
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,
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!
That’s like no playtime
I think what's most interesting is out of all the games you have, and Reggie, including all the oddities and rare obscure stuff, its the common titles you play most along with a few other niche games that aren't hard to find.
Great list! I finished Witcher 3 and all the DLC quite recently, I started it in October and finished it in its entirety (side quests, map markers, quests etc) like mid March. 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!
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
What a gem of a channel🙏
What a fun video idea. As a fellow slave to the almighty backlog i do love hearing how others face it.
Personally i get overwhelmed quick. I usually finish a couple short games or a single long one, then i leave gaming for a few days or weeks while i read books or watch movies.
Solidifies you are a collector far more than an actual player, I am so glad I shook that mentality myself and now just enjoy the actual games themselves rather than spending a fortune to fill up physical space with plastic that I rarely actually utilise in a meaningful way
Excellent video nicely done. Had to sub. Thank you sir
Great vid! Splatoon 2 and Gems of War are my top 2 for sure.
The Skyforce games are, IMHO, some of the best shmups in existence. I can understand why Reloaded was on your list. It's worthy of it.
Skyforce and Sine Mora for sure.
Sine Mora gets TOUGH. Love the visuals in that game too.
I agree, I'm not a huge shmup fan but I LOVE Skyforce. Have played it through at least twice, once on the PS4 & once on the Switch, and I could start a new game up now & play through it again.
@@argylega Could you share tips and tricks for those of us having a hard time getting through it?
Thank You for putting both Skyforce games on my radar. Can’t wait to pick them up soon.
Hope you enjoy it!
@@MetalJesusRocks You saw there are 2 of them available in the eShop now not just the one you showed off. Both cost $9.99.
I love Sky Force Reloaded, you got me into it, it's one of my most played games on Steam
Another great Vid MGR keep up the good work!
I love the skyforce games so much! I’ve never been much of a shmup person but I have put dozens of hours into the skyforce games on the vita and switch. I love that even when you lose you get a little stronger, keeps you coming back for more.
After Reading all messages about Skyforce, I ve just bought it, and I really love! The kind of game I like: a game, and you think "the last One!", but press start again, and again...😃
Duuude you've gotta hit the online for Mario Kart 8 deluxe more. I spent so many hours just trying to master the courses. It's definitely a lil bit of a sweaty game despite being a bit random. It's amazing truly
congratz on 900k subs brotha!
i love this kind of videos man
Animal Crossing at 400hrs, Pokémon Sword at 270hrs and CTR Nitro Fueld at 240hrs are my top 3. There are definitely some I thought I had a ton of time in and others I didn’t expect so much, once you get hooked, you get hooked.
240 hours in CTR is Chris Chan levels of autism.
Get a job dude
Over 1000 here. I don't really play it much anymore. To me it's a game that I'm fully invested in or not at all.
Your animal crossing alone is more than all MJR time on the switch. He’s not a real gamer 🤷♂️
@@rc_matic Who are you to say who's not a real gamer? Cause they like what you don't? GTFO loser...
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.
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?
@@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 :)
Sky force is pretty amazing! I’ve gotten through most levels and gotten most of the extra medals but the last few stages are kicking my butt. Great list 👍
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.
+1 for Skyforce Reloaded. Such a great value. Otherwise, I’ve sunk a ton of time into Animal Crossing and the Fire Emblem games.
Never heard of Ys 8, looks like something I’d like thank you man!!
Great list, love skyforce too, great local coop too
Dragon Quest XI is definitely worth coming back to!
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
Great video Jesus!
Great video - also very easy to do this on PS5 too and it’ll also tally up your PS4 games, so would love to see a follow up video for PS4/5 with this same concept :)
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!
I respectfully think that your comment is shit.
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
Dragon Quest XI is such a great game and story!! I beat it twice, on PS4 and on Switch, I highly recommend you go back and finish that game!
Amazing list of games it is almost the games I play usually on my Switch. Thanks for the nice video 👍
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loving this concept of a video! 😁 👍
That's an easy question, for me hands down the most hours played was Breath of The Wild 👍
I probably put more hours on Outrun 2006 than say...Gran Turismo 5, because replay-ability is the key.
1. BoTW ~ 300 Hrs
2. Hades ~ 270 hrs
3. Hollow Knight ~ 120 hrs
4. Witcher 3 ~ 100 hrs
5. Skyrim ~ 80 hrs
6. Smash Ultimate ~ 60hrs
7. Dead Cells ~ 60hrs
8. Metroid Dread ~ 60 hrs
9. SNES emulator ~ 45 hrs (mostly super metroid, ALTTP mario and Demons crest)
10. Skyward Sword ~ 30 hrs
Hey man! Glad to see more videos from you!! As usual, RPGs are the ones dominating the most played games list. One thing I'd like to point out is that the Switch has a strange way to track your games. Sometimes the Switch forgets the time tracking of a game that you haven't played for a while. It's also important to point out that it only counts the hours played on the console, meaning if you changed to a new console it will restart the tracking. I had like 35 hours of Hades on my old Switch and when I jump over my bew Oled it start all over again! It's kind of sad. This doesn't happen on Playstation. I wish there could be an app to precisely track all these data. Anyways, glad you're an Ys fan as well, take care!!
How about doing a list of most played games from all platforms that have the counter? Might be quite a task to put together but would be cool to see!
That would be a neat video to make. Good idea!
These are baby numbers 🤣
Share yours here. Let's see em!
@@MetalJesusRocksI have almost 400 hours on Rocket League 😳
@@Nice-sm5hrthat's embarrassing, lmao.
@@talison461 nah
@@talison461says the shit poster 😂😂😂 you’re embarrassing
9:26 Dawnbringer brings back memories, I upgraded and dual wielded them for a long time before replacing with better swords.
Awesome video ‼️
Some of the comments here makes me question if people actually play games for entertainment or for bragging rights.
I was expecting Breath of the Wild to be in the top 3 😮
This is a really great video. I only play Nintendo so I really appreciate it getting a heads up on games. The Lego open world game looks great by the way.
Thanks for the video, have a good weekend everyone 🤘
For DQ11, I also got around to 17-19 hours on my first playthrough before getting burnt out. But after months passed by (also during peak COVID), I revisted it and gave it the fair shot it deserved. It is definitely a classic JRPG grind, with a wholesome story. I think it definitely got better, but I will say that it is not for everyone.
same here! I've had 3 failed starts on DQ11 lmao. Farthest I've got was my last attempt at 25 hrs. I love the characters, the gameplay and the world, but the abysmal music just kills it : (
The orchestral versions from the enhanced edition certainly made it better with better sound quality, but it didn't change the horrible compositions themselves : (
I put 2000 hours into Splatoon2 :) 150 into S3 so far. I am addicted to Tetris Connected (1 on 1 online mode 'zone battle' is intense!!). Working up the ranks on total wins, currently ranked ~550 and still climbing since it is all-time wins for that leaderboard. I like listening to records with the Switch sound turned off 🤘
I kinda neglected my Switch for a few years when I got my PS5 back in 2020, but I'm starting to really get into it again and been buying a lot of games for it recently. Lots a great games go on sale on the eshop, paid $16 for the doom collection which has Doom '93, 2, 3, 64 and Doom 2016 which is crazy. Got FF7 for $10 around christmas, and virtua racing for $3. 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.
Skyforce on the vita was CRAZY!! Great memories !
Need to get into Skyrim!
Would be great if you also made videos on this for PS5 and Xbox (Possibly Steam too)
Great selection of games
Thanks for the video! The great revelation for me is Lego City Undercover; I didn't know I had to play it 😄
Grabbed it on sale on Xbox and I'm really enjoying it. The humor is so dumb, totally my type of humor. It's like watching a The Naked Gun movie. I've also put a lot of hours into the other titles mentioned here.
Kingdoms of Amalur: Re-Reckoning was my most played Switch Game last Year. 127 Hours and I loved any Second of it. 🥰
I cannot stand the lack of bag space in that game. I only barely got started when it was free on playstation plus. Is there anyway to not immediately hit your bag limit when the game requires you to loot everything!?? I want to jump back in, but might need to start over since I forgot the story.
@@jakeryan2805 The only way to increase your space is to buy Bag Upgrades at certain Merchants in the Villages. At the beginning it´s tough with this little space but stick to it. It´s getting better with Time.
Amazing. I’ve had Mario Kart since the Switch’s launch and still haven’t played it…🤣🤣🤣
Why? It’s the best racing game ever made, imo
i get you. bought the ps4 with horizon zero dawn back in 2017 and just spent a few hours with it. there are so many games and so little time. its impossible
@@NinBendo1kart racer definitely. Racing game I don't knowabout that.
@@NinBendo1 Wasn’t on purpose.🤣🤣 Just got caught up in other things. I’ll take a staycation and burn through my backlog.
Great Video 👍 love my switch for the emulator for the retro games.
you turned me onto sky force reloaded a while back. One of my favs, especially co op
I know he can't sink tons of hours into gaming because he films and he also jumps around and plays a lot of different games, but, I was kinda shocked to see how little time he puts into games. I don't usually feel like I've given a game a shot until I give it 20-30 hours.
I feel the same way. He must play other systems a lot more than the switch. Would love to see his Xbox numbers.
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.
Yeah I agree, he really meant it when he said he “jumps around” lol it sounds like he just likes tasting the start of games and not actually taking any pride in finishing them. It’s a bummer
@AlexanderMitchellDrums I finish lots of games...they are usually just the 10 or 15 hour variety, not the 50+ hour ones cuz I don't have the time.
@@MetalJesusRocks Have you tried GT7 in VR yet? It blew me away!
There are some games I've never heard about. Thank you for showing them=)
No problem!
yo
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.
I jump around because it's my job to make TH-cam 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.
Not everyone plays one game a year like you.. why would anyone do that is beyond me.
@@lordeowstheking who 1st off you can take your comment and shove it in your ass. 2nd who hurt you? And lastly you're clearly on this spectrum because I was talking about my childhood. 🤡
@@lordeowstheking and to add to you're "why anyone would do that is beyond you" Is bogus, people play games like destiny 2 and warframe. Those games take dedication and time. So it doesn't take much to get anything beyond you.
To each their own. The way you play games is valid, the way Metal Jesus plays is also valid, there's really no wrong here. Metal Jesus is awesome and has an amazing wealth of knowledge.
This video should be called "Games i don't play". All those games with so little playtime, it's just a waste of money.
Metal Jesus is a gem.
Those hours are great numbers!! 💪
So many games but not so much time to play them, every gamer can relate 🥶
So true!
By the way, I like the optimistic tone of your channel. Very refreshing on TH-cam these days.
Great video
Hey Metal Jesus I wanna let you know that I love Watchin all of your Videos 👍👍 Is there a chance you & Reggie gonna do another Game Pickups Video? I really Like those 🔥🔥🔥🔥Keep up the Great Work
Super Mario Odyssey is a masterpiece... I was smiling from ear to ear on my first playthrough. Great video as always MJR! Would love to see this same list on your music preferences
Mario oddysey is the second shittiest game I played after Celeste
@@IHitTheWater I didn’t like Celeste either
@@GameEsthetics I thought it was decent - for an indie game - but it cost $30 and the main story - which was medicore - took 9 hours. i want $1 per hour of main story
@@IHitTheWater ok, play Celeste 4 times. You are welcome.
@@jouflow Unless it is a game I really enjoyed why would I play it multiple times? and I would 100% a game before playing it 4 times, I think that you are just a person who likes Celeste and am mad I dislike the game, I would get annoyed if someone said OoT was bad aswell so I will ignore your comments for my own sanity unless you can give me a good reason to do something 4 times, litterally the definition of insanity right
Awesome video! I've had my Switch for a little more than one year. My top 10 by hours are:
10. Shredders Revenge - 5 hours
9. BOTW - 10 hours
8. Celeste - 10 hours
7. Super Smash Bros Ultimate - 15 hours
6. Kirby and the FL - 20 hours
5. MK 8 - 30 hours
4. Capcom Arcade Stadium 2 - 35 hours
3. Animal Crossing - 35 hours
2. N++ - 45 hours
1. Tetris 99 - 50 hours
Great to see Lego City Undercover in the list. It's #1 on my most hours played with over 70 hours put into it.
Nice video Good Job 👍
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!
Thanks for sharing 👍
Ah, I absolutely LOVED Skyforce reloaded. I must have played about 100 hours. So addictive and fun as hell. I also loved skyforce anniversary. Glad you reminded me about this great game. I totally forgot about it.
Cool video! Please do for the others systems too!
Thanks! Will do!
Not surprised for sky force for you. Youve been talking about shoot em ups for years. I would say its one of your fav genres.
What a great video!
Just subbed and saw this vid. How funny I've just spent the week on sky force anniversary and I'm gettin ready to get stuck in to sky force reloaded. Ooh as typin just saw kingdom of amalur and want to re download 👍
Nice video!
The running in place in Ring Fit absolutely DESTROYED my knees. I put maybe three hours in and couldn't go back.
Super Mario Odyssey , Luigi's Mansion 3 , Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time
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.
Awesome video for an awesome question! Metal Jesus, can you do a video related to only PS2 again. Anything really, a historical breakdown of a certain game or franchise. Another hidden gems video, maybe. Just as long as it's PS2 only, because just like you, my favorite system of all time is the mighty PS2!!!
Hey MJR! I've been gaming too since Atari 2600 days. Have you played Hades yet? It's the first game I've ever played that feels new over and over again. I've just finished my 500th run and I'm still going back to it! If you have, then give it more time. If not, I highly recommend it! It's in my top ten of all time games and I've owned almost every console since my 2600!
Very cool! I love the Switch
