The Switch is going to be 3 years old in a few weeks and it already has a really varied and rich platformer library :
Super Mario Odyssey (MC 97)
A delight and the feeling of controlling Mario in 3D has never felt better.
Celeste (MC 92)
Probably the greatest surprise of 2018 which got the game to be nominated for GOTY. Tightly designed and a moving story.
Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze (MC 86)
Perfect level design and astounding soundtrack, Retro delivered once again with arguably one of the best 2D platformer ever made
Sonic Mania Plus (MC 91)
The best Sonic game since a very long time and a great achievement of modernising the 2D Sonic formula.
Other noteworthy games (among others) :
- Ori and the Blind Forest (MC 89)
- Super Mario Maker 2 (MC 88)
- Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove (MC 91)
- Rayman Legends (MC 84)
Honorable mentions :
- New Super Mario Bros U Deluxe (MC 80)
- Yooka-Laylee and the Impossible Lair (MC 79)
- Spyro Reignited Trilogy (MC 79)
- Yoshi's Crafted World (MC 79)
- Crash Bandicoot N'sane Trilogy (MC 78)
