Games that need to come to the Nintendo Switch

Well I know I want Super Mario Maker as a first party game. For a third party game, I don't know. All the third party games I'm interested in are either already out for the Switch, or already announced for it.

I did see a Zoids game that I want to see in the states however.

 

The original Xenoblade Chronicles. Even just a port would be enough.

A good Tales game would be nice. I'm surprised there's been no announcement for Symphonia - the Switch is definitely capable of it, and it started out on Gamecube - but I'd also love to see Berseria and, if they get ports to PS4 as has been rumoured, the Xillia duo would be nice too.

Since NieR Automata has made it to the Xbone of all things, it'd be nice if it - and the original, which is in my opinion the better game - could make its way to Switch too.

THQ Nordic are porting a bunch of old rubbish to the Switch right now, so the three Darksiders titles absolutely MUST be brought to the Switch as well. Since the Wii U received Mass Effect 3, it'd be nice if the Switch could get all three of the games too, but Bioware...eh. They're not what they used to be, putting it mildly. I don't see that happening.

As for Nintendo themselves...remasters of Twilight Princess and Wind Waker were wasted on the Wii U. Those need to come to Switch. The Metroid Prime trilogy - minus the motion controls, thank you - would be nice too.

Also, A VIRTUAL CONSOLE. That is the biggest thing the Switch needs right now. Proper legacy content. The Switch Online Service is not an acceptable substitute - I want to buy and own games, not rent them out on a yearly fee. Nor do I want to wait years for them to put up anything worth playing that hasn't already been put up about fifty million times before on different platforms.

 

I would love to play Age of Empires while sitting in the car, bus, etc.

As much as I like this thought, AoE isn't a game made for consoles. The controls in this game are focused on a mouse (I played a Playstation port of it and it was really bad).

 

Darksiders is coming to Switch. Awww yeah!

One game I'd love to see come to the Switch that I forgot to mention in my previous post is Baten Kaitos. That game has had a little recognition in Smash via its music and I have extremely fond memories of it - my first forum was actually the official BK one - so I'd love to see it ported to Switch with a visual touch up...and maybe some reworked voices so they don't sound like they're coming through a bad quality microphone. That was the only issue I had with it. Actually being able to play the second game would be nice too.

Some more visual novels of higher quality would be nice, too. Danganronpa, The House in Fata Morgana, Code: Realize, etc. I have little hope for Steins;Gate Elite because the presentation is so damned ugly, but there's no reason the Switch couldn't just plunder the Vita's library for VNs. There are some amazing ones that deserve a second lease at life.

 

I'd like to see one of my favorites on PC, Slime Rancher to make it to the Switch. The Spyro reignited trilogy is also a thing that needs to get there asap, if the n.sane trilogy made it on, so does that one. Any port of old beloved games is welcome too…. The rest I'm not sure xD I've been out of new released games for too long to think of anything that needs to be on Switch.

 

I could not agree more. Im not too sure a KH collection is likely but if it was oh man this could possibly be my favorite console. Persona 5 has way more of a chance imo since joker is in smash and theyre announcing something in march called p5r. I know im probably holding out too much hope but all the dancing persona games would be great on switch, especially since they were originally on the vita. It could be such a cool transition!

 

To echo @Wizard and @Tonochi I'd love to have the Kingdom Hearts series on the newest Nintendo console in some way. Imagine playing those games with a GameCube controller! That'd add a whole new level of gameplay to the series as well as have a more comfortable fit for myself (after playing Smash Ultimate a lot, going to the DualShock is crazy awkward).

I'd also love to see Monster Rancher on the Switch as it's an old favorite of mine from the classic Playstation--it's actually fairly similar to the Pokémon series and had a lot of fantastic games that could really use a remaster.
