It's been six months since the launch of Nintendo Switch 2. Nintendo's latest console has been hailed as a fantastic sequel to the original Switch, and although it's not exactly breaking the mold set by its predecessor, it has beyond the optional extras like mouse controls. It's still a top machine. But, realistically, it's not really about specs, it's the games that really make a great console, and in the last few months we've seen plenty of first- and third-party titles debut for Switch 2. And from that great pool, there are a few that have been the talking points so far for Switch 2 – they might not be what you'd expect.
The original Switch's first year was pretty stellar. Launching with Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and following that up with Super Mario Odyssey before the holidays, we also got Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (you know, just the best-selling Nintendo game of all time), Splatoon 2, Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes, Xenoblade Chronicles 2, Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle, and numerous others in those first nine months of the Switch's lifecycle.
