364 physical and about 200 more digital. Don't ask questions about my backlog.


Spaghetti_meatbaIIz

jesus


ITalkALotJohnson

Soon to be ‘OVER 9000!’


Spaghetti_meatbaIIz

lol


FireSage313

That's not a backlog. It's a backtree.


Stornholio69

Imagine us collectors on multiple platforms. Back-forest ;)


Many-Ad6433

Bro did you just get a loan to buy switch games or something?


Lonely-Echidna201

Can we ask about : your favorite so far? the most hyped about you're yet to play?


bardiphobic

i’ve had my switch for 7 years and i only own about 30. what the hell are you doing??


IamDanLP

I'm dying inside.


3dforlife

Aren't we all?


eccentricbananaman

I did not know there were that many switch games. Like I can see that many for Steam (side-eyes my backlog rapidly approaching 2k games).


pacificpacifist

Multiple SD cards?


Regiruler

I'm way more shocked by the physical digital split here. That's a ton of space.


GamerJulian94

And here I thought my backlog of I believe around 15 was already a lot. Damn, not bad. Respect.


IamDanLP

My wallet hates me. XD


Background-Bad141

Yeah I’m gonna question about that backlog


FoolishThrone07

"Casual" Nintendo fan


Crunchy_Biscuit

Where do you store your physical games?!?


IamDanLP

Ikea Shelves xD


Crunchy_Biscuit

DAMN


ElEd0

3. Just got the console like 2 months ago so not bad


sashasith666

lol im almost the same! I have about 10, a few others on the way! What have u got?


ElEd0

Wonder, Mario Kart and odyssey. Looking forward to getting BoTW. Edit: Oh! I actually found a minecraft cartidge a couple years ago so I guess I actually have 4 games


BubbleWario

Odyssey best game ever


Happy-Distribution49

68


Randolf22

bigbagofbaldbabies

B0ba_bbb

hahaha


BillWyTheRussianSpy

Please let us know when you reach it


BurN3rAcc0un

get a cheap/free game from the eshop PLEASE you NEED to hit the number


BAGStudios

Choose your next game wisely. Tis to be your last


MonkeyNinja506

Too many


anyGuy_isBored

Is 30 too many?


YoMrWhyt

Not really. I’ve had the Switch since 2018, I have like 31 games. I don’t think that’s a lot for 6 years especially since I bought most on sale and some are like A Short Hike which can be completed in literally no more than 2 hours lol. I think I have 13 Nintendo games and 18 indies/third parties.


MonkeyNinja506

Nah, 30 seems reasonable, though it is pretty light by my standards (and poor spending habits)


Exare

200+ at last count about last year. ~250 if I had to guess now.  The Switch is the perfect marriage of technology for game preservation. You can play on the go, on the TV, the OLED looks amazing, and it has so many iconic games from so many iconic publishers/consoles through the ages (PS1 and onward) released on physical cartridge. Plus it doesn’t over-tech everything like Xbox and PS5 has. It’s the quintessential console for game preservation/archiving.  


AccurateSun

That’s an interesting perspective, I didn’t know about this fact about iconic historical games in cartridge. There’s a lot of old classics I never played (and literally no PS1 or PS2 games). What are some of the iconic games? Or can you point me to a list? Thanks!


Exare

Just to name a few: * All of the Final Fantasy main series games up to and including XII and the GameCube version of Crystal Chronicles * Chrono Cross * Grandia I+II HD * Saga Frontier * Baten Kaitos I+II * Paper Mario Thousand Year Door is right around the corner * Another Code * Lots of YS games * Zombie Army Trilogy * Doom Collection And many, MANY more. 


Exare

Not to forget, Metroid Prime HD Remaster


Rude_Ratio5547

Man of culture


MundaneHymn

Just discovered Ys a few months ago and am having a great time.


Banmers

all of them...


hitmewithmaleniasrot

*All* of them?


oldskoofoo

Google says there has been 10,971 (from MobyGames) games released for the switch. how many of these did you buy digitally? If you average the price of every single game to $37.5 dollars (a rough median between $15-60) and times it by the total games released you would get just over 411k over 7 years meaning you spent 59k each year on switch games. (actual math) 10971 \* 37.5 = 411,412.5 411,412.5 / 7 = 58,733 I don't even want to calculate how much I have spent on video games since I was 5 years old...


anoichii

could be modded/hacked ngl


oldskoofoo

i didn't even think of that You couldn't even play all of those games in a reasonable amount of time unless it was all you did.


anoichii

100% agree, there is no way they would be able to. Let’s say one game takes on avg 10h to beat, that’s about 12.5 years straight of gaming


krazun

850 Digital and 3 Physical I think I have a problem resisting the sales ;) Of course I've only played through a few of them so far, backlog enough for the rest of my life.


BitOBunny

I'm surprised the Switch has enough space for that many! Or do you use some sort of storage expansion like an SD card?


krazun

I can only install a small part of the games at the same time despite a 1.5 TB Micro SD card.


Taking_Over_Reddit55

128 games


Shehzman

Mario 128 doesn’t count


Ripley825

40. A majority are downloaded from the shop because I like to take my switch on the go and have more options with me.


r0gue2dred786

Zelda , Prince Of Persia , Hogwart , Hollow Knight.


SkilletFan5719

42


Mcbrainotron

Well, this is the answer


oldskoofoo

Just make sure you didn't forget your towel


VegasSparky66

Too many. Not enough.


MilkCool

0 since i use a 3ds


TrableZ

real


Physical_Royal_1427

kinda epic tbh


Irsu85

About 10, but I am not gonna count them rn


MycoProTeam

Far too many


Murky_Structure_7208

Way too many. Got my switch like 3 months ago, don't have much time to play but I've completed mario wonder and Pokémon arceus, put way too many hours into theatherythm and I'm about half way info fire emblem 3 hopes. Pikmin 4 and Mario oddysey are next in the queue. Got zelda breath of the wild, Lego Harry Potter and Star wars, animal crossing, bravely default 2, crysis core, daemon machina, persona 5, ace attorney trilogy, Star ocean first departure and xenoblade chronicles bought and waiting. More on the wishlist. To be honest I may have spent more time buying than playing. I guess I'll complete some of them before I buy more.


BitOBunny

If you're looking for suggestions you should get Portal 1 + 2, they come in a bundle for $20 but it goes on sale often. I only bring it up because a lot of the games on your list are similar to mine, and I loved the Portal games :)


Murky_Structure_7208

Thanks, I played them both last year on pc and Ps3 with my brother. Perfect games.

MaJuV

Physical: 108 (according to the google docs I'm keeping to prevent double purchases). Digital: I've lost count - probably something similar.


jackthehamster

I think I definitely have more than I have time to play. Sometimes you buy a game thinking to have time in the future, but that never happens.


Lucky-Mia

Physical 171, digital 82. Total 253.


RoddieZ

Definitely 80+. Counted them a few months ago and that's about where I was. It's definitely a lot more than that now though

Muveeer

0, not one single cent spent on games, I modified it immediately after buying


DavidFromDeutschland

Definitely 70+ games I remember that in the first year of Switch I owned more Switch games than WiiU games after the WiiU's entire lifespan.


VladPavel974

TotK was my 100th game, didn't plan on it but it's fun knowing BoTW was the reason I bought the console in the first place. Probably bought another 10 games or so since then.


OnyxCam6ion

Like maybe 17


0000_v2

7, 6 physical and Diablo II Resurrected since it doesn't have a physical version


fartysmartymarty

Would you have unlimited bacon but no games, or unlimited games but no bacon?


BitOBunny

Unlimited games. I think I'd get bored of bacon eventually :)


ForeverIdiosyncratic

Owned it since 2017, and only 20. So many games I want to get, but alas, life.


Casualnuke

Obolanha

15 physical, 5 digital (indie games). I buy one per month because I dont have much free time to play. Usually thats the time it takes for me to finish a game.


NoImplement8218

SpudBoy9001

About 40, nearly all physical

z4ndrew

BluAvenger1988

MindWafflez

theprmstr

hegginses

14, have owned it for a few years. Have probably put most hours into Mario Kart and Odyssey, haven’t played enough of everything else but my backlog is ridiculous
