My TOP 10 MOST Played Games on the Nintendo Switch in 2023!

My top 3 are Pokemon games. Shield with 150 hours (still playing crown tundra so this will go up), Scarlet with 135 hours and Brilliant Diamond with 110 hours. I still haven't played Legends of Arceus yet but I have that planned after I complete Crown Tundra, and for sure I'll have over 100 hours in that too by the time I'm done. If this was nds, ps2 or gamecube, I'd have thousands of hours in several games ahaha.

Edit: I do recommend getting the Teal Mask DLC for Scarlet and Violet, in my opinion it is better than the main game although it is quite short. I do like Teal Mask in Scarlet more than I liked Isle of Armor in Shield. I hope the next DLC is as good as Crown Tundra is for Scarlet though :)

You have to try stardew valley if you haven’t 🥹 by far my favorite farming simulator

Animal Crossing New Horizons - 200 hours
Story Of Seasons A Wonderful Life - 75 hours
Splatoon 2 - 65 hours

Splatoon 3 is still on my hit list of games to get. Definitely liking Splatoon 2 though~ 🥰💕 Wondering if Splatoon 3 will be as good or just skip it~ 🤷‍♀️ As for Story Of Seasons A Wonderful Life I really enjoy the game. Never played the GameCube or PS2 version's but heard of both year's ago in high school when the gamecube & PS2 were out & popular~ 🤷‍♀️ I like Animal Crossing on nintendo switch but it got very repetitive for me very quickly. I refuse to go back on Animal Crossing community website because of how rude people were on there. I went on there when Animal Crossing New Leaf 3DS came out & was so upset with people criticizing my grammar instead of actually playing Animal crossing games (which I thought was the whole point of there website) I up & left & never looked back... 🤷‍♀️✌️🤙

i need coral island on the switch ugh

I think the only game I have played a lot of this year so far is Tears of the Kingdom. I had been playing mainly only this since May and I just beat it. Now, time for other games!

I’m obsessed with tears of the kingdom! And I so did the same thing with my save files lol I upgraded to the tears of the kingdom OLED and didn’t back up my save data and I had 145 hours in tears and 185 in Skyrim

The le chonk T-Shirt looks so cool 😎
Loved the video, was really interesting to see what you played on the switch 😊

Animal Crossing was my lockdown game too. I will always love it even though I don’t play it much anymore. I find myself irritated lately with Dreamlight Valley.

My most played game is zelda breath of the wild. I put 160 hours into it. I wanted to do all the sidequests and shrines aswell as just chill horseriding and doing random things. I think tears of the kingdom can beat that, but i haven't picked it up that much because of the holidays.

I'd have to look to see what my most played games are.
I'm sure Catherine full body is in my top 10 as I got a handful of the rin endings and got decently far.

Pokemon DLC should be illegal if it's almost the same amount as the game

As well as shiny Pokemon not making a noise when appearing
I've had fun spotting them but I've come close to missing one or two

Shiny hunting was a pain in the butt in sword and shield!
And I kind of refuse to buy the DLC it was to little to late when they offered it .

Had to add my hours in..
ACNH: 385
TOTK: 185 (halfway through the game)
BOTW: 250
Stardew: 190
Pikmin 4: 50
I know I have a ton of hours in super Mario odyssey, paper Mario origami king & luigis mansion 3, because I have replayed these games numerous times. But it’s not showing up on my list anymore.
🩵

My top games are:
ACNH
The Ace Attorney Trilogy
Hades
Disco Elysium
My Time at Portia
Wylde Flowers

The longest I ever spent on a game was 184 hours on Persona 5 Royal. I think I had 300 hours on Pokemon Sapphire when it was released on GBA years ago, but usually I get bored of games after around the 100-150 hour mark.

I am so pleased I found your channel because I am obsessed with playing wlyde flowers. I wouldn't have found it without you. Thanks ❤

I wish I could see how many hours I have in Palia - I’ve been playing every available moment since closed beta 😂

My most played is definitely Animal Crossing! I love(d) that game. Although I don't pick it up as much anymore, I still do some. My 2nd most is a game called Farm Together. My friends were like Why ya always playing that farming game? Hahaha cause I love it! I'm with you though, PLA is my favorite Pokémon game! I hope they do another like it!

I love your Lechonk shirt! It’s so cute :)

Really wish there was an easier way to access your game time rather than just “Play Activity”. Regardless my top 5 most players are

1. Animal Crossing New Horizons. Not a shock as I got it near the beginning of the pandemic. While I haven’t touched it in a while I still have fond memories of it

2. Pokémon Sword. While not my favorite Pokémon games they’re still very decent and get way too much hate imo. Absolutely love just running around the Wild Areas, exploring, and catching Pokémon

3. Pokémon Scarlet. Absolutely love these as well especially how the three stories come together. The 7-Star raids keep me coming back since it’s ‘new’ Pokémon too add to my collection. Depending on how long the DLCs are it might beat out SwSh, we’ll have to wait and see

4. Sky: Children of the Light. There’s always some sort of event happening that keeps me coming back and even if there is none, it’s just fun to fly around and explore

5. Fire Emblem Three Houses. Kinda surprised since I’ve only done one route so far, which also happened to be the shortest (Crimson Flower). Love Fire Emblem though could use without the “teacher” aspect of it here. I’ve heard Engage goes back to more traditional FE gameplay though I wanna do all the routes of 3H first

Honorable Mention: Pokémon Legends Arceus. Haven’t even finished the story yet cause of the Pokédex. I love to collect Pokémon and started a Living Dex (where you have one of each Pokémon, all their evos, forms, etc.) so this games been right up my ally. Hard to get back into since the controls are just so different from your traditional Pokémon game

The Xenoblade Series is just the best JRPG series. My heart belongs to 2, because it was the first I picked up. Storywise 1 is the best. Wondering if you played it. For me personally, 3 was the worst. As a Xenoblade Fangirl it took be 20 hours or so to be in the game. Where in 1 and 2 I was in immediately. I still need to play the DLC, too. Can’t wait to do so, but wanna save it for autumn/winter, so I can sink in ❤

omg i jst discovered ur channel and i LOVE it . Ive been lately diving into cozy gaming and the community and jst find it also refreshin to see girls like u who enjoy making content bout some nice comfy cozy games. Keep doin what ur doin 👏👏👏

I loved Dreamlight Valley at first but I've honestly become so resentful towards it because I got so disappointed in several elements of it, and unfortunately Palia is still in Beta and I already feel the same toward it. Dev teams that call themselves small when they're not and that say that they care about their community when they only actually care about continuing to shake us down for every penny we have for an incomplete game, I'm sick of it.

Am I the only one who find the story progression in Wylde Flowers pretty slow with way to few quests and stuff to do? I like the game, but I feel like autumn is dragging on forever and it has thrown me off the game. I wanna finish the story but right now I find the game boring with nothing more to do while waiting for being able to shift the season to winther.

Hello, I'm about to purchase my own Nintendo Switch and I have some questions...
If I buy the Switch, do I have to buy games individually for $60 each or do I get every game for free on the console? I want to play the Zelda, Mario and Pokemon games. I have been researching a lot and haven't found any clear information about this.

Any helpers?

TotK and Botw suffer from the same thing Skyrim did back in the day where you load an old save and have no idea what's going on

I got my switch last year and have 500 hours in animal crossing and 80 hours in breath of the wild. other than that, I’ve played a few shorter indie games

I have over 2000 in stardew 😅 but only 1225 of that is on the switch. I have 905 in new horizons, 370 in pokemon shield, 305 in pokemon violet, 260 in pokemon shining pearl, and only 225 in legends arceus 😭 And as much as I've adored light of hope, I've only got 105 hours in it and still haven't married the wizard smh

I have similar emotions about Animal Crossing New Horizons <3 even though I don’t play it regularly anymore, I look back at my ACNH time with so much joy. 1,520 hours! With also 2 island experiences!

If Animal Crossing:New leaf was tracked… I’d have a full YEAR of time on it since it was the only AC for 6 years straight and it’s the reason I GOT a switch. I was playing my 3DS faithfully until 2020 😅

Super jealous of the pastel joycons! I really want to purple and green ones but of course finances have been just super frustrating since they released. Fingers crossed I can snag them soon!

I'm sad how quickly ACNH became boring though. After playing all AC games since the GCN version it was a bit disappointing.

Farm Together has my highest but, that's also because I'd leave my game up while I was at work for others during events lol

Wylde Flowers and DDV definitely have my highest hours other than Farm Together though. Once Palia makes it to Switch, I'm sure it'll be up there too heh

I have also played Animal Crossing more than 1,000 hours. I love Pokémon Sword & Shield and Violet and Scarlet. I love your Lechonk shirt!

I LOVE your videos and recommendations. I’ve downloaded so many you’ve suggested. Wylde flowers?! Seriously filled the animal crossing shaped hole in my heart.
Question. Hokko life keeps leaping out at me in my research as a cosy farming sim but I can’t find a video where you mention it. Have you tried it? Is it good? Thanks!

How many hours do you have in harvestella😳

Thank you for showing that you can have short play times and still enjoy a game. I all ways feel bad when i see other people have hundreds of hours in a game conpared to my 60 hours and it makes me feel like im not appreciating the game enough. But seeing you have short play times makes me feel better.

Agree 💯 about Zelda

I am so sad about Animal Crossing. I don’t understand why Nintendo stop to do new DLC and updates, because there so many fan of this game.

I'm still upset over the ending of Xenoblade Chronicles 3 lol. That game was an emotional gut punch for sure!

My top 3 are 165 hours in Pokémon sword, 150 in rune factory 5 and 120 in my time at Portia (which was so buggy but I loved it)

You are the reason I tried Wylde Flowers and for that I thank you! haha. Also, I play a lot of games like zelda where if I don't pick it up for awhile it makes me want to pick it up less because I know I am going to be lost and possibly have to start over. I actually have a gaming journal now, and whenever I finish playing a quest intense type of game I will actually document what I was doing and what I need to be doing, so, when I pick it up again I know exactly what I was in the middle of. It's simple and works really well!

With Coral Island I'll probably wait for the merpeople update before I play any more - but I really do love the game!

How much do you have in Cozy Grove, how about stardew? I have been obsessed with both since seeing your recommendations! I'm currently at 20hrs in cozy grove and 70hrs in stardew but I think I'll easily double that in both before I'm done 😍

I played a lot of Wylde flowers and boyfriend dungeon.

I am waiting for Fae farm at the moment… but should I buy Wylde flower ?? I can’t decide …. Help me !!! Hehehe 😅

My most played games:
The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom
Northgard
Ys Viii Lacrimosa of Dana
Civilization 6
.
I did played Xenoblade Chronicles 2 the tutorial is incredibly annoying but I pushed through to get to the story which was great. Ys Viii Lacrimosa of Dana does not has the same tutorial issue as Xenoblade Chronicles 2.

Animal Crossing dropped at such a perfect time for me too. I took that day off work and joked with my co-teachers about needing a month off the enjoy it long before lockdown. I wish they had done more long term with the game but I enjoyed it anyway.

How to play nintendo switch

Are festivals in Coral Island actually unique, or traditional egg hunting-spooky pumpkin themed?
My most played on switch are: Stardew, Animal Crossing and Portia.

My most played games: -Breath of the Wild (170 hours), Mario 3D All Stars Collection (115 Hours) and Persona 5 Royal over 80 hours
