The Nintendo Switch Year in Review 2023 is officially here to remind you of the games you spent the most time playing this year.
Although most consoles can show you the cumulative hours you’ve devoted to a game in your library, they don’t show you this info for a specific period.
That’s where year-end recaps come in, which also offer a more detailed breakdown of your stats across genres and even monthly play times. With PlayStation and Xbox having already released their annual reviews, now it’s the turn of Nintendo.
The Japanese gaming giant had another remarkable year thanks to a bumper crop of excellent exclusives. Highlights included the mischievously creative Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom; the return of Mario and the gang in the joyous Super Mario Bros. Wonder; and a surprise battle royale version of a classic racing game in F-Zero 99.
Did any of those make your list of top-played games? Or, were you one of the players that helped turn the viral Suika Game into one of the most Googled games of the year? It’s time to find out by checking out your Nintendo Year in Review 2023.
