Jesus...I don't think I've ever bought (or intended to buy) more games the first year of a console's life than with Switch.
Favorite lineup of stuff in a long while.

You were "done" with Mario Kart after like 3 days?
I only added games that had dates or estimates (like Quarter 2, 3, etc) but I've gone back and added a TBD section for it and others.

Lame. There's 2 games on that list I care about and one I'm buying for PS4 instead. Can't wait for Mario though.
It's all roll eyes from me until they announce Pokemon, a real Pikmin, Animal Crossing, or Luigis Mansion.

Switch only has 10 physical releases thus far.....that seems very low. How does PS4/XB1/3DS compare?

Forgot Thumper is this week! Fuck yeah. Also looking forward to Celeste.

I feel the same way. I think since releaae, I've bought one game a week, lol. Thumper this week will continue the trend.
I feel more compelled to purchase games that I wouldn't normally buy. 2 examples are Has Been Heroes and Tumbleseed. Hard ass games but very fun. Would have never touched them otherwise.
I never got into Neo Geo but thanks to the Switch, I'm experiencing the awesomeness that is Blazing Star.
I still plan on picking up Bomberman in the future as well.
Picked up Disgaea 5 a few days ago which means everything I currently have takes a backseat, lol. Hours upon hours of game time.
I'm in love and pretty damn excited for what the future holds.
Thanks for the list!

It's great but I wouldn't call it a dungeon crawler. It's more of a fast-paced, simple action game with puzzles that remind me of the overworld in the original Zelda.
Games in italics have physical versions available. I'll reword it.

September is where it's at! Can't wait to start a MyCareer campaign on NBA2k while on the go.
Oh... Damn! What's Wal-Marts return policy on consoles and games? I didn't realize there was such a drought in games. Nothing interesting to me at all even through next year. I guess if I keep it, I'd be gambling on some big announcements at E3. I wonder what the chances of anything interesting being announced coming out before the end of the year?

Inject that portable Skyrim straight into my veins.
Edit: I've seriously been waiting for a portable Elder Scrolls game since Oblivion was announced for the PSP roughly 10 years ago.

15 Games for the hardware. No return on the software if it is opened.

Bookmarked for future reference. Thanks for making this!

The people who bought a Switch seemingly only for Zelda make no sense to me. Why didn't you just wait until there was more than one game you're interested in?

Thank you for the list, much appreciated.
Hype for a major, quality title is a real thing. Day 1 is powerful (though admittedly a luxury). I love experiencing shit when it's new. It loses its lustre differently for each person with the passage of time (and not at all others).
Ah cool , does it have RPG elements like XP and weapon upgrades?

What's up with the negativity? Maybe this doesn't seem exciting for people who played a lot of WiiU, but this library is shaping up nicely.
I've repeatedly stated that I won't be interested until late 2017, and I'll continue to wait. I won't troll just because Switch is experiencing some droughts in its first year. That's typical for consoles, but I actually predict the software on Switch to ramp up.

30 day return window/secondary seller options galore because Nintendo is always overly conservative with production/really wanted to play Zelda.
For me, there was no reason not to pull the trigger then see if Nintendo could convince me to hold onto it.

This has reminded me there still isn't a release date for Yooka Laylee yet 
Looks good, now. Great list. Very helpful.

Subbed. Awesome thread!
People need somewhere to vent their buyer's remorse/need for reaffirmation of their preconceived notions. One of said posters has been trying real hard in multiple threads at that.
This is pretty normal.

I dont think any console had such an good first party line up in its first year in a long time or ever: Zelda, Mario Kart, Splatoon, Xenoblade, 3D Mario, with Arms a gorgeous looking new IP,
On top of that third party games like Fast RMX Disgaea, Warriors, Skyrim,
Sure no big blockbuster 3p games announced yet, but nonetheless​ an impressive line up.

Question
Is there a chance we have other first party games not on list that are coming before end of year, that will be announced at E3?

Basically 100% chance, yeah.
Why do people forget that Nintendo always announces new first party games at E3. Always. Even in 2016, the year of Zelda.
No and no. It's an exceedingly simple game. The price is right but I'm not sure it's actually worth the time to play it. I'd have preferred they tacked on a couple other elements (score system, weapon upgrades) and charged a couple extra bucks for it. As it is you'll be done with it in a day or two at best.
