I haven't had a chance to bust out my Switch in a while and I'm looking for some inspiration. What games has everyone been having fun with as of late?

    The demo for Princess Peach: Showtime! came out...today, I think. Haven't played it yet but I'm interested nevertheless.

     
    I also now own the HD version of Zelda: Skyward Sword to replace my old (stolen) original copy, but I haven't opened it yet. Been on a serious PC-bender with my fancy-pants Steam Deck! lol :D

    I think Unicorn Overlord is kinda cool, also Mario vs Donkey Kong is full of nostalgia for me. But other than a few raids in scarlet and violet. I have not played that much myself.

    Really excited for star wars battlefront classic collection though. Want to have those games on the go

     

    Edit: I really hope you enjoy Skyward Sword HD @linkblade. It actually plays really well on the switch, either with motion controls or the sticks. 

    It is easier for the motion controls to get decalibrated but I did not feel like that was a real issue when playing. Really easy to recalibrate like in super mario galaxy (3D All Stars)

    I was so excited for Skyward Sword since I didn't finish the original one, I even bough the special Zelda Joy-Cons they released for it. But I never ended up getting to carve out enough time for it. Zelda just isn't one of those games I want to play for half an hour at a time so it got tossed aside. Sigh.

    That's good to hear the motion controls are easy to recalibrate should stuff get wonky. Nothing better than slicing your sword at enemies!

    Been playing Super Mario Wonder. Still gotta get those Wonder Seeds. Wonder and Odyssey are both super great games for the system.

    As for other games, I have recently beaten Bomb Rush Cyberfunk. So much fun and definitely a worthy successor to Jet Set Radio.

    Custom Hearthstone expansion, Gladiators of Brawl'Gar, 183 cards! https://outof.games/realms/hearthstone/8gd/gladiators-of-brawlgar-full-145-card-custom-expansion/

    Unicorn Overlord is probably going to be my Game of the Year. I was expecting a slightly deeper Fire Emblem, but it's so much more! I love it.

    @FortyDust I haven't looked into Unicorn Overlord, but I love SRPGs like FF Tactics, Tactics Ogre, etc. I'll have to research it more!

    Edit: Had a bad morning and decided "fuck it, I'm gonna buy/install Lies of P." But, while waiting for that, I found a demo for Unicorn Overlord on the Switch and got sucked into a completely different game than I intended today lol.

    Not necessarily a fan of the real-time aspects, but it reminds of the indie game Symphony of War: the Nephilim Saga, which I quite enjoyed. It is definitely not FF Tactics or Tactics Ogre, but I can get behind it anyway.

    So Unicorn Overlord is fantastic, and I'm having a great time with it. I thank you for mentioning it here! @FortyDust
