The Switch boasts a remarkably diverse library, encompassing virtually every genre imaginable. This versatility extends to its features, with numerous titles designed for both online multiplayer and local co-op experiences.

Tales of Graces f is particularly praised for its engaging combat system, while Donkey Kong Country Returns: Tropical Freeze is a consistently excellent platformer.
