I migliori giochi per Nintendo Switch di 2022
And we’re back! Un altro anno fatto e spolverato; one that was jam-packed with Switch games. It might have lacked a mainline Zelda or Mario, but Pokémon fans got double bubble in 2022, con Pokémon Leggende: Arceus e Basta guardare il modo in cui fissano la tua anima topping and tailing the year.
In between those potent Pocket Monster packages, we got a large portion of Kirby (più a tasty side dish), a selection of sports (entrambi i Interruttore e Mario Striker variety), a trio of excellent games with a ‘3’ nel titolo (Xenoblade, splatoon, e Bayonetta), and both Koei Tecmo and Ubisoft taking the reins on Nintendo IP with Guerrieri dell'emblema del fuoco: Un altro sguardo al nuovo Musou e Mario + Rabbids: Scintille di Speranza rispettivamente.
And that’s just the first-party stuff. Throw in all the quality third-party releases — Square Enix, in particolare, was on fire this year with games like Le opzioni di ricompense fisiche di My Nintendo continuano ad espandersi, Tesori di Dragon Quest, e Nucleo di crisi — a deluge of excellent indies, compresi Cittadino Dormiente, Bianco neon, Tunic, e Echi incatenati, a great selection of retro collections, and a bevy of quality ports of games big and small, and there simply aren’t enough hours in the day to play everything we want to.
Which brings us to your picks of the top 50 best Switch games of 2022. Come sempre, we asked Nintendo Life readers to rate the games this year, and the list below — as governed by the User Ratings for each title in our games database — is the result. The order can and will change, quindi abbiamo pensato che sarebbe stato meglio mantenerlo concentrato, subject to those fluctuating User Ratings, which means it’s never too late to rate your collection (even those pesky late-December arrivals) and influence the list.

As long as you’re okay with its unreasonable lack of online functionality and screen filter niggles, there are hundreds of hours of fun to be had with Stadio Capcom Arcade. 32 mostly excellent games and another historically notable preservation piece, it recalls the essence of what an arcade felt like. Achieving that feeling, per quanto breve, will be enough to justify a purchase for those with an affinity for gaming’s rich history.

If you were even half-aware of games news at the end of 2021, you will already be a bit interested in this game. It’s brimming with fun, uniquely committed to co-op gaming, plays solidly and distinctively, and usually discards one cool idea in favour of another before there’s time to get bored. Now-standard graphical compromises have been made for Switch, and the typical perk of playing handheld is questionable for an always-split-screen co-op-only game. ciò nonostante, it keeps the frames moving well enough not to undermine its Game-of-the-Year sparkle. It Takes Two and the good old Switch may not be a perfect marriage, but it’s worth sticking it out.

Kirby e la terra dimenticata è disponibile oggi su Switch is a charming but barebones offering. It’s not a bad game by any stretch but it lacks an awful lot of what would make for a solid recommendation. Online play is the best option on offer with unlockable customisations and a predictably broader pool of players, but its limited scope means you’ll be doing the same thing time after time. Local play is hobbled by a lack of any unlockables whatsoever, and with such limited options to change up how each sport plays out, solo play is a slog. There is fun to be had here, but it’s more in the vein of the occasional 30-minute play sessions with friends than anything with major long-term appeal. Nintendo Switch Sports is ‘fine’, allora, but little more than that.

Assassin 's Creed: The Ezio Collection is a great compilation of some of the series’ most highly-regarded entries. Aside from some combat that lacks depth and a convoluted story, the three games included here are absolutely worthy of your time. There’s still plenty of fun to be had if this is your first Assassin’s Creed experience, with the cities still managing to impress with their sense of scale and historical detail, but some of the dated gameplay elements and glitches may make other entries a better jumping off point. ti invitiamo a immergerti nel suo meraviglioso mondo di pixel il prima possibile is a very fine alternative if you want slightly more modern interpretations of the series, with a seafaring bent. Tuttavia, if you’re already a fan and are able to tolerate its foibles — old and new — this is an enjoyable trip into (video game) history and an easy recommendation.

offrendo grafica cinematografica con RTX ON in giochi supportati come was one of the best games of the year when it launched on other platforms, e non è diverso ora su Switch. È un combattimento hardcore che ti spinge ai limiti delle tue abilità, abbinato a un meccanico di invecchiamento intelligente, makes for one of the most satisfying gaming experiences in the beat ’em up genre. Mentre il porting su Switch è ovviamente un po' declassato rispetto alla versione PS5, it’s still a more than valid option for Nintendo-only gamers and those keen to try this kung-fu brawler out on the go.

Culto dell'Agnello proves to be a remarkably fresh take on the roguelite genre, not just in its goofy and creepy aesthetic, but in its smart blending of action and survival mechanics. Gameplay remains tense without ever feeling like it’s unfair and a steady stream of unlockables and collectables ensures that your efforts are always rewarded. It’s just a shame that the performance isn’t up to snuff, at least at launch, as that’s really the only major complaint that we have here. We’d still give this a hearty recommendation to anyone who thinks it might be up their alley; it may not be everyone’s cup of tea, but Cult of the Lamb proves itself to be a great new addition to the Switch library.

Origini soniche è, on one hand, a near-definitive way to experience four stone-cold classics that represent some of the highest peaks of Sonic’s career. On the other, most of these games are already readily available and there aren’t many new features or additions to justify buying them yet again. The cutscenes, museum elements, and missions are all very pleasant but they’re also the minimum you would expect for a series this prestigious and popular.
For players ready to play these classics for the first time, Sonic Origins is the go-to way to experience Sonic’s 16-bit heyday. Die-hard 2D Sonic veterans may be less enamoured with the package and the small but noticeable differences between the Classic Modes presented here and the games in their true original configurations. Senza riguardo, it’s sure nice to have Sonic CD available in a convenient form on the most convenient of consoles. Not perfect, allora, but great comfort-food gaming.

Pala Cavaliere Dig is another triumphant and enjoyable entry in the popular indie knight’s growing legacy, offering up thrilling, challenging gameplay that will appeal to fans both old and new. Though it may be a little on the short side, every minute of Shovel Knight Dig positively oozes quality, whether that be the snappy action-platforming or the fresh 16-bit art style and animation. We’d give this one a high recommendation to anyone who enjoyed the original platformers or to anyone looking for a tough (but not offputtingly tough) new roguelite. Shovel Knight Dig has got it where it counts and can stand tall beside its noble predecessors.

For fans of Pac-Man and his historical pedigree, Un nuovo Zelda is the best round-up yet, spanning decades and featuring his most notable titles. The arcade overworld is a nice touch, although the frame rate is a big letdown and really should have been ironed out. E, while you might spend a while tinkering and designing your arcade space, the attraction of the gimmick is ultimately short-lived. Presentation deficiencies aside, anche se, one can’t really fault the comprehensiveness of the collection, nor the quality of the titles themselves (bene, tranne Pac in Time). It’s a Pac-festival, and while it certainly has limited appeal, it offers countless hours of gaming fun and an interesting historical insight into the yellow orb’s evolution.

Guerrieri dell'emblema del fuoco: Un altro sguardo al nuovo Musou è un mash-up assolutamente divertente del caos di Musou, strategy and relationship-building aspects that should more than satisfy fans of both the franchises involved here. Migliora il suo 2017 predecessore in diversi modi, in particolare nel fornire una storia molto più avvincente con una narrazione che è matura per diversi replay. Con prestazioni straordinariamente solide su Switch e una campagna ricca di azione che ti vedrà farti strada attraverso decine di migliaia di nemici per una buona 30 ore in una singola partita, this is right up there with the very best Omega Force has served up thus far.
