8 hours is barely past the opening cut scene

Just got easily bored with any Zelda game. I think I’ve played the sequel for two hours, and neither is installed on my switch at the moment.

Several of the games I’ve listed I’ve played for 20-30 hours, even if I really enjoyed them (like Super Mario Wonder, Super Smash Bros and Super Mario Maker 2), and I generally consider a game I’ve played ten hours or more worth it. My most played Mario game on the Switch is Mario Kart 8, at just under 40 hours. Civ VI on the Switch however is at 978 hours.

978 hours. Wow!

Have you played Galaxy 2 yet? It's in my personal top 10 but I haven't in played it in over a decade.

No I'm going to play it as soon as I finish this one

I'm about 20 stars into this Galaxy 2 remaster. So much joy.

I played both Galaxies all the way through when they came out. I can’t remember a single detail about either. What makes 2 so much better?

I finished my first Switch game, Links Awakening, my first Zelda, it was an interesting adventure, some of the dungeons were pretty tricky and I had to look online (I work and have a life too).

I wanted to play this game before Breath of the Wild because I know they're very different in every way. The game has several performance issues, problematic FPS, and a weird blur, but I enjoyed it.

coming from a PS5, I need to remember that the Switch 1 would be equivalent to a PS3

I just started Metroid Dread and I'm really enjoying it

Dread is awesome and runs really well on the OG Switch.

it does, very well
I think I started my journey on the Switch with the wrong game, at least in terms of performance and technical aspects, It scared me a little at first, but it was also a good game

Link's Awakening's performance was largely panned when it was released too. Breath of the Wild has some rough spots (in terms of frame rate) but it's more much forgiveable given the scope of the game.

Super Mario Odyssey is really something special

Yes, one of the best.

Just beat Mario + Rabbids Sparks Of Hope on Monday night.

That game had longer ending credits than Zelda. Holy crap.
