Astral Chain and Bayonetta 3. Absolute gems on Switch
Still need to borrow Astral Chain from my brother, definitely looks cool
Love how positive and happy you always are about games.
Seriously! It's so refreshing.
@@erikhoffman5659😮j😢 I hf
I REALLY want a Astral Chain sequel and I wonder if we will ever get one.
Switch 2/Pro/Super Switch 100%!
@@HappyConsoleGamer exactly what I’m hoping for! My 3 year old son just started gaming so I’m thinking I’ll pass my Switch down to him when I move on to Switch 2. Him playing F Zero had me cracking up.
I am sure he will love it! @@VagaBohn
Facts that was a good game i might purchase it.
Metroid Dread is SO good. 10/10 for me. I miss the feeling I had on my first place thru. On the OLED it looks so good.
so good? are you serious?...Super Metroid is a 10/10..not Dread
Its suppose to control like that. Not like an action game that it has become. Dread sucks
@@GenyaArikado super metroid has better atmosphere and music. but the boss fights are pretty bad and not really fun. they have great designs though. dread has some of the best feeling boss fights iv ever experienced in a game. and samus has never felt so fluid and smooth to control, it makes you feel like a badass. both are great games but i like dread more
@@GenyaArikado exactly
@@edy1361 Ive played all of them seince the nes. The 3ds version and dread are smoother for a more action based game. Thats not metroid. Its the same thing capcom did getting rid of the wonky controls in monster hunter and tank controls in resident evil. Gotta appeal to the masses to sell more copies. Hell resident evil is just a 3rd person shooter at this point. What Im sayin is what made the series what its great for has been altered not to improve the gameplay but for mass appeal. I felt like tom and jerry in dread just getting chased around in circles and rated g to death.
Every time I tell myself I need to cut down on buying video games, I watch this show and end up caving in! You’re going to make me go broke 😂
Did you pick it up? Hope you like it. I’ve never been into anime (nothing against it) but really liked this game!
Its makes me so happy to see Astral Chain getting some love. So many people slept on this title and it deserves wayyyy more recognition! Pheonominal game! Would love a sequel!
I was going through a rough time in my life, and my friend recommended Fire Emblem Three Houses. I will always say that Three Houses is a 10/10 game. I love that game so much.
Playing for the first time and just got to part 2 today. 30hrs in and I will say it is an absolute 11/10. It gives you more than you could've ever asked out of a fire emblem game. It will be hard to top
that game was such a disappointment
I knew that Astral Chain would be good when I first got it but I ended up getting completely blown away by it, the game is just that good and I completely agree with Johnny that it is a 10/10 game! I can also see the game becoming highly sought after in the years to come.
I just finished SMT V a few minutes ago. Wow, that game defines 10/10 for me!
The soundtrack alone makes it an 11!!! It was a amazing game,always love the SMT games!
1'st game in a LONG time that I went and got all of the endings... I adore that game and it's soundtrack....
Amazing game. And the soundtrack is phenomenal. I agree, it's a 10/10 game.
Yoshi's Crafted World, Tony Hawks Pro Skater 1and 2, Trine 5, and Lego City Undercover are all 10's that don't get enough attention.
Ahhh Yoshi’s crafted world is on my radar. Just gotta wait until it goes on sale which is never usually lol
Need physical copies. Would love to play those.
You’re so real for what you said about Engage I couldn’t agree more man, I do like Three Houses but Engage really highlights what makes Fire Emblem unique and I loved it
Sadly, I bounced off Metroid Prime. I was so hyped when they dropped it. I picked it up immediately. I loved it back on the GC and I’m not a collector so it’d been over a decade since I’d played. With all do respect, it didn’t strike me as exploration in 2023 like it did back in the day. It felt like getting lost in an office building.
Loved Metroid Dread though.
Hear hear
i just ordered astral chain and ninjawarriors, can’t wait to play them
both
What a way to start this video!! TOTK is my favourite game of all time! After all the gaming since the late 80s and at 43 years of age, with all the memories and nostalgia created throughout the years I'm more than fascinated to be able to say this for a game, today. What a time to be a gamer!!
I didnt know what to expect from Astral Chain but I was also blown away and thouroughly enjoyed! Amazing mechanics and cool story too!
Man I love watching your videos! Your love and charisma are freakin addictive!!!!!
Super Mario Odyssey is also a 10...great video. Love the Kirby games too😅
For me it is Master Detective Archives Rain Code. The game has been nothing but an absolute joy and definitely a 10/10 game in my opinion. It is such a unique experience that I just absolutely love
Oh I love that game!
Yo man I just commented about this game and I now see you comment about it. Totally 10/10 suprising game.
@@DaakkuuYRS It was my most anticipated game this year and I preordered the CE. The game just has style and that soundtrack??!!! Truly a game of the year top contender for me.
I agree. I wasn’t even interested in the game at all but decided to buy it because it looked cool. Definitely one of my favorite switch games and so glad I picked it up.
@@beaner2189 I'm so glad you decided to get it! Very happy to hear others who really love it just as much as me
Always love your videos and overall passion!
For me Astral Chain is something above everything….
I'm gonna have to agree. I love that game probably the best new ip they released on the switch can't wait for the second one.
😮 I just got it from my library the other day and plan to start it tonight. Can't wait!!
@@cwvc162nd one ?!?!
Yup. My favorite switch game.
nope
I was having medical issues when Tears of the Kingdom came out... I put 200 hours in in a little over a week... Made me forget all my pain... It's top 10 all time for me now...
Xenoblade Chronicles 3 is 10/10 for sure! Love the story, characters, combat, exploration, side quests. 1 & 2 are good as well but 3 is special to me. Also the end of chapter 5 and beginning of chapter 6, need I say more?
I had the same reaction to Tears of the Kingdom. I wasn't expecting it to capture my imagination and make me feel so many emotions when I started playing it. Other games I'd add to the list that I played in the last two years would be Octopath Traveller 2 and Xenoblade 3! Both great JRPG!
Triangle Strategy for me. A lot of RPGs go heavy on anime tropes, so it was nice to have something a little more serious with a grounded, well written story and characters.
Yeah agree. TS hooked me more than any game has in a long long time
The story is very good in triangle strategy. It reminded me a lot of a game of thrones type drama. And the character variety is very good
Most of the games that are 10/10 for me are multiplatform.With the exception of Fire Emblem Engage. I really fell in love with that entry. Getting the obvious out of the way let's start.
-Torchlight 2, the first game I got on the system. I played many hundred hours on pc and I'm near 400 hours on switch. Still it has big replayability, thanks to the different builds you can make.
-Icewind Dale EE. My favourite game ofthe black Isle Studios DnD games.
-Factorio. I love the idea of automation of machines.
-Civiliztion 6. One of the best strategy games in existence, the ultimate time sinker for almost everyone. Also I loved how they transitioned to a gamepad. It was the biggest surprise for me.
-And lastly Ys Origin. My favourite Ys game.
Damn nobody talks civilization, that series is one of best series ever
I think you forgot about octopath 2 😊. 10/10 for me this year.
Honestly I loved Octo 2 but stopped playing it when TOTK came out I really need to complete it one day I love the little short stories in it
I would say Kirby And The Forgotten Land,Luigi's Mansion 3 and Arms were all amazingly great games. I definitely can't wait until Super Mario Bros Wonder comes out next month a day one purchase for me.
Definitely agree with you on Kirby and Luigi's Mansion 3!! I loved them both
I'm really interested in arms but it's never on sale physically haha
@@fritzthecat8158 What Nintendo first party game ever is except once in a blue moon.
Watching youtubers like Johnny, is all I do, practically all my spare time is used watching shows like The Happy Console Gamer. I see the same ones over and over again, until a new comes! How is Kim doing? Keep em coming, Johnny!
Metroid: Dread is my favorite Switch game, I really think so.
I remember when I first started the game, the very first thing that struck me was just how responsive, quick, and tight the controls were. In fact, for me, it's almost ruined my ability to play other games! It's just so much FUN to play as Samus, and yes, the game is very hard! But the controls made the game FUN, and had me continue to play until I conquered the game.
I gotta play this game again, it's just that good!
I can't agree more about Bowser's Fury. It totally surprised me and probably is one of the most polished game experience I've ever had. Beautiful, extremely fun to play, intense at times, chill at other times. Incredible for a short and almost perfect game.
hm maybe that should be what i play next then. i bought 3d world a few weeks ago, got bored at like world 4-5 then just stopped playing. so ive never actually tried out the bowsers fury part of it
@@WhyUHaf2BeMad Well you totally should. Super Mario 3D World is quite fun but Bowser's Fury is special, very different feeling game. Try it, I don't think you'll regret it.
I'm 500 hours into ToTK and I'm still not done
100% agreed with every game here! FE Engage, DQXI, Totk are some of my favorite games ever made!
Johnny, you mention Ninja Warriors as many times as your heart chooses because it’s enjoyable to hear you share your passion for the game every time, haha. Thanks for bringing me some sunshine today, buddy
The nineties look of Astral Chain... well the character designer is Masakazu Katsura, a manga artist that became very famous in the 90s with his debut manga "Video Girl Ai" so it probably contributed to the general look and feel of the game.
Johnny + Sunday morning videos = perfection. I need to give a shoutout to Dragon Quest XI. It was my first mainline Dragon Quest game and I absolutely loved playing it. I don't have a PS5 but I will buy one the day Dragon Quest XII is released.
It’s amazing how many people who think of themselves as gamers have no idea just how many 10/10 games there are on the Switch. And they also don’t realise just how many games there are. The Switch has been a little system that has packed in a massive punch.
I like how you didn't go with everyone's favorite. As I've seen in others Top lists.
I'm a new switch owner so at least 8 or 9 of these will be in my library. You earned yourself a sub sir. Thanks for the video
I’ve played all of these except for the Ninja Saviors one and I see it’s currently on sale $8 on eShop…may have to give it a whirl, Johnny! Thanks 🙏
Do it! That's a steal for the game!
100 percent agree on Astral Chain. Got a physical copy a while ago thanks to your recommendation. A 10/10 for sure.
Engage had better gameplay than Three Houses for me, but the story didn't jive with me much, but totally get where you're coming from!
Cereza and the lost demon, i noticed that a few people talked about this game. This game is severely underrated. It has the el shaddai look with a toned down astral chain combat, nuff said!
Of Johnny's list, Dragon Quest XI was also a 10/10 for me. The very definition of an EPIC story quest. It has EVERYTHING a jrpg fan could wish for.
Same for me as well honestly had a blast from beginning to end. Looking forward to 12 when it comes out.
Loved it but never beat the very last boss kept trying but couldn’t do it
yup. awesome PS5 game.
I'm also loving the switch physical games, they're absolutely mind blowing with the art and detail they go into them!
Same I’m going to try to only have physical copies
I assumed DQ11 was in your last switch vid. So nice for the love. It is amazing.
Next year I am replaying them (and some for first time) starting with 4
I love when u talk about games and story's of ur pass gaming experiences
Great video! Cruis’N Blast is 10/10 all day 💫🏆
I enjoyed this video! I love that you loved Fire Emblem Engage. I adore it too. It's still my game of the year!
Astro Chain doesn't have the words to describe how amazing it is. One of the best game I ever played.
I'm loving the nintendo switch! One of my fave consoles of all time
Glad for your pick for Astral Chain. In terms of combat, it was the best action game I’ve ever played.
Metroid Prime is my favorite game of all time. It is truly gaming perfected. Astral chain is also incredible.
I am 43 years old and a dad and you and I are from the same Generation X generation. I love video games that are fun and not the ultra realistic games that are just simulation. I want Nintendo to continue to be in its own lane and don't compete PlayStation or Xbox for hardcore gamers.
That’s me as well! Glad to find out more people like me enjoying games like these, still I don’t have much time to play but when I do I enjoy it so much.
Great vid! Really appreciate it. Dad of two and havnt play a game for 7 years and thinking to pick this up for the family (and so i cannolay zelda :))
I love that you included Astral Chain. It's one of the best Switch exclusives. Top game for me.
I started TOTK a few days ago (finally i had time!) and I agree with what you said. Initially when playing i was like “this is just BOTW 2.0, it feels identical” but once I got off the sky island i realized how amazing it really is 😅 I just finished the wind temple and… wow. It blew me away. Definitely worth all the praise it’s gotten 🙏🏼
Yep I still haven’t beaten it yet but I have put so many hours into totk that game is amazing 🤩
@@outright4697I decided to replay Breath of the Wild as I didn’t explore all locations and I wanted to see how they changed in Tears of the Kingdom. I’m glad to hear you’ve taken your time though!
@@blitzball4lyfe823 nice I need to finish totk but I made a big mistake lol 😂 I got the kingdom hearts all in one package on sale and I’m playing the first KH game can’t stop playing it so far I’m absolutely loving it it’s definitely a magical experience
Adding to phenomenal new retro ganes, Pocky and Rocky Reshrined is also made by Tengo Project (same devs as the Ninja Saviors and some of the original devs of the original games), and it's fantastic. I also appreciate the optional CRT graphics mode it has.
There's apparently a sequel name Heavenly Heroes in the US or Legend of Sayuki in Europe.
I think my definitive favorite game on Switch is Monster Hunter Rise. Dabbled in the series with MH4 but got more seriously into it by Generations, but absolutely loved how it maintained that classic MH feel but all the QoL Improvements of World. Quickly sunk over 100 hrs into that game faster than any other game I’ve ever played previously and keep coming back for more. Certainly other really Amazing games on the system, but MHR for me is just the perfect balance of graphical fidelity, multiplayer, and replayability without feeling like a slog even after factoring in the somewhat limited monster roster.
You are so enthusiastic, it is a pleasure to see !!
I've been waiting for someone to make a video that mirrors what I think. Completely agree.
Astral Chain is the best game on Switch, in my opinion. Absolutely love it!
I'm just playing Metroid Dread for the first time and it really is amazing. I wouldn't say that it's too difficult, since it has a modern checkpoint system. TOTK and Metroid Prime and DQ XI deserve their place in the list.
Okay that seals it for me I’m getting Metroid Dread…all the talk of it being too difficult stop me from getting it
@@tokenblack7983I honestly don't think it's THAT difficult.
It's not super easy but the difficulty is well balanced. Definitely not something to be scared about.
@@tokenblack7983they also added an easy mode. I’m playing the normal mode and I’m finding it well balance and not that hard. This is also my first Metroid game
It could have been, but unnecessarily difficult, which leads to frustration which leads to put it back in the box and hope some collector sap pays x10 what it’s actually worth in 2 years time
Happy to see Astral Chain on the list. Would love to see a sequel or port so more people can enjoy
Bowser's Fury doesn't get enough attention. I really hope Mario's next game is a bigger version of Bowser's Fury.
Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana and Cat Quest 2.
If you want a 2-player game to play with your family or friends get Cat Quest 2. Its really good, probably the most fun me and my gf have had playing a videogame together.
Wife and I liked Cat Quest 2 a lot. Playing Trinity Trigger together now. Cat Quest 3 next year!
I loved astral chain.
Lately I been playing Trails games on the switch. My goodness, I love the switch for the mobility and access to great RPGs. Which leads me to DQXI as well as those Trails games (Zero, Azure, Cold Steel and Reverie). I'm sure there's others as well as you made mention in this video but one game at a time. The backlog battle never ends
I love Astral chain!! Especially the sound track. Dark Hero and The Answer are amazing tracks bro.
I’m currently addicted to Dragon Quest 11 because of this channel. Perfect game!
Astral chain is so good. Still think about it pretty often. DQ11;is one of the best jrpg's I have played too. Over 80 hours in that game. Loved it.
Astral Chain is totally a 10/10 game, I super love it! The Final Boss, oh man, that fight is a masterpiece, it is difficult and so so cool! Incredible man.
TMNT Shredders Revenge. 10/10
I have many 10/10 games. But one I must give a shout out for is Master Detective Archivies: Rain Code. I bought this game with knowning nothing about it. In short, it is a detective game with crazy plot, characters, and twists. Brilliant puzzles to figure out that you have to remember very minor lines from the story to beat, and overall it is just pure fun!
I’m 2:30 in and you just got a new Sub from me. I absolutely love your passion and enthusiasm. I can tell you know what you’re talking about.
I just purchased Breath, Odyssey, and Metroid Dread after buying a Switch yesterday. I’m pumped because Ocarina is my #1, so I’m here to play Breath and Tears. I figured I might as well get a Mario and Metroid, and maybe I chose the wrong Metroid.
What are your thoughts between:
Prime Remastered vs Dread?
Totally agree with you on fire emblem engage. I wanted the classic, fluid, almost pure gameplay feel that games like awakening gave me, and this game just delivered
I'm so glad you included remakes on this list because most opinions I see act as if remakes or compilations are not part of the Switches library, when in reality they are one of the biggest reasons it's so strong.
I absolutely loathed Dread, for all the reasons I agree with you on Prime, that's what I hate about Dread. There is hardly any exploration! Getting lost or figuring how where to use a new power! It played more like a corridor white knuckle action game. Almost a boss gauntlet if you will. You're hitting a new boss or mini boss about every 30 minutes. Each time you beat a boss and get a new power... an elevator magically appears and puts you right where you need to use that power to progress. if you're looking for a high octane white knuckle boss rush where you are expected to learn tight patterns w/ micro seconds of tolerance, well Dread is for you. I finished it, but I didn't think it "felt" like a Metroid game in any way.
I know it was a big hit and I'm in the minority here, but it's just how I felt about it.
EDIT: Great pick with Astral Chain. I fucking love that game. When the character was training "super hard" to impress the girl who wears the bear costume... as it lays empty in the chair made me just laugh and grin from ear to ear. It's so fun.
DOUBLE EDIT: AND the Ninja Warriors! I played that game though like 4 times. Love the Ninja Warriors. They have a vinyl record released for the original arcade OST. It's awesome.
Oh god! FE Engage was *the game* that I used to introduce my partner to Fire emblem and now they’re playing through three houses. Squee! AND HOLY HELL YES - dragon quest 11 - what an AMAZING game. Great list, thanks.
DQXI is soooo good on the Switch. I love that game so much. Made me a DQ fan.
New Super Luckys Tale for switch. Very underrated, super cute, chill and fun.
Gonna have to try these games out, & I def. trust your opinion on titles so far. I was mixed on FE Engage- a bit oversaturated by so many titles I felt I missed so held off.
Maybe worth giving a try if it's on a sale
Into the Breach was a game I was blown away by - not a switch exclusive but I played it on there. Perfect turn based strategy game honestly, easy 10/10 for me. Metroid Dread also might even be my single favorite game on switch, it’s just that good. I didn’t expect to be so enamored with a 2D metroid when my previous forays into prior games were unsuccessful, but Dread really nailed it in every regard for me.
I love that you always represent Astral Chain i loved that game and it's so overlooked . 🤙
Havent touched ToTK in a while, think you just convinced me to boot it up again.
I was ganna skip Fire Emblem Engage but you recommended it twice in past videos so I gave it a try. It has become my favorite game in the series and could be my favorite game of all time! I’m currently playing it for a second time.
Same for Tears of the Kingdom, didn't expect to feel so much with that one.
Truly something special, as well as the entire Xenoblade series.
Also yessss to the FE Engage praise!! I feel like it’s underrated compared to Three Houses. For me Engage is a 10/10 too
I'm totaly with you at Zelda TotK, it's just unbeliveble what they did with this. Truly love it ❤
And Metroid Dread man, its over awesome 😍🤘
I'm stoked that I own physical copies of every game you mentioned on this list!!
I don't know what it is about TotK, but it hasn't captivated me to completion. I believe I have about 65 hours in the game, have only activated 2 towers, but I just don't feel a draw to keep going for some reason. Your review of it carries weight for me though, makes me know I need to jump back in. Thank you for your great vibes!! I love your videos.
Coincidentally I owned all of these and absolutely agree with your points. It just feels nice to hear praises for all those games again.
But I just simply can't praise Astral Chain enough. Truly a marvel on every single front and something that I really want to become its own franchise someday.
Metroid Dread is such a fantastic experience. Glad to see it on this list. Difficult for sure but fair in its difficulty.
Dragon Quest Builders 2 was a definite 10/10 game for me. It was the first one to really make me fall in love with my Switch. I'll never forget that game.
Ninja warriors has a special place in my heart. Back when I was a teenager, I could afford this game for 20 bucks, but never picked it up on the SNES, because I waited too long thinking I might get it later. Then the day came to pick the game,it was already gone. So i regretted for 2 decades to play this game until it finally came out on the switch. Now i still haven't played it yet, because I think the game is too special for me to be openened from its seal. 😅
Strongly agree with most of the games you mentioned. Tears is the best game I ever played, and I started playing games in 1982. I played it untl Sea of Stars came out. lTo me, 2D Metroid is true Metroid. I 98%'ed Dread. Fire Emblem Engage was my first FE I really played. I bounced off Three Houses because of the school stuff. I played Engage until TotK came out. I love DQXIS.
The way you gush about Zelda TOTK is pretty much exactly how I feel about Ghost of Tsushima.
I just got a Switch lite as a Christmas gift, With Zelda Breath of the Wild. So, I'll be slowly checking out the games you mention.
Very much agree that The Ninja Saviors is an amazing beat'em up game.
On a side note, the same team for that game "Tengo Project" are working on a remake of Kage Shadow of the Ninja.
Astral Chain is a Goddamn masterpiece!!! 👍🏿👍🏿
Dragon Quest XI:S made me a Dragon Quest fan and brought me out of my gaming slump with a newborn - now it’s one of my favourite series of all time and 11 is my favourite one! Such a special game and hands down 10/10! Rab alone makes the game a winner!
