Great video OJ, I haven’t seen you on my timeline for a while, and here you are with a banger!
Great video! I have some new things to pick up now!
Great video, wow the switch's jprg library is insane. So many top notch games
I'm excited for this one, thanks man.
Awesome video. Looking forward to see your GOTY list.
Bro the game timeline descriptions are absolutely perfect. Laughed out loud quite a few times. Thighza had me rollin.
Phenomenal video a few standouts missing but mostly classic ports and hopefully we get a top 15-20 rpg ports who knows lol.
Amazing list! I find it satisfying that I own quite a few of the games on this list. I'm currently about to start playing Fire Emblem Engage. Seems like a great journey ahead!
Great video, love the switch rpg lineup and recently played through baten kaitos 1/2, last remnant/grandia remasters, and fairy fencer f
Cant wait for mario rpg remake next month and dragon quest monsters dark prince
Thank you for this list. It really helps me alot to decide buying a switch as i thought there isnt that much rpg on this console but i was wrong. keep on creating rpg list. thank you and kudos!
this is the video i've been waiting for - i have the same taste in games as you so really appreciate recommendations!
A very good list for those new to JRPG and switch
Great ranking. I love many games you mentioned.
Xenoblade 1, 2, 3, SMTV and Astral Chain are my top favorites.
Monster Hunter Rise, MH Stories 2, Atelier Ryza series are very good aswell.
I loved Monster Hunter Stories, one of my favorites!
8
thansk so much this is great! Haven/t played any of these games before.
Thanks for watching and commenting man!
That chapter describtions got me I am laughing haha. I love how you did it, especially the " Edelgard was wrong" title. As Fire Emblem three houses was my first switch game I bought switch for and I have played around 400 hours so far. Going for another playtrough sometimes this year, just hearing the music makes me want to cry...
I am The Legend of Heroes addict but damn they are long. 70 hours in ToCS 3 and I begun chapter 4. 100 hours easily every game no kidding.
Currently working with gf abroad for 6 months and took switch with me. Got lot of games that were on my backlog for a long time I bought physical, but never got to play them (thanks to pc online games mostly) so now I have so many options available and your list helped me sort it out.. well sort of. lol Xenoblede 1, 2, Torna and 3 (never played before), Persona 5 (ps5 version didnt hook me, so handheld will probably be more comfy for evenings), Astral Chain, Nier Automata, Octopath Traveler 2 and SMT5. Currently getting trough ToCS3 as well as Xenoblade chronicles 1 (when cold steel 10 hours of dialogue is too much for me).
Great content I love it!
Persona 5 and Astral Chain are both absolutely phenomenal. Coincidentally, I played them for the first time back to back and I just couldn’t believe how much I enjoyed them. You’re in for a treat 😁
Edelgard was not wrong though
@@badmeetsevil6163 alternative title: "Kill every last one of them!" haha its the universal answer to anything happening in the series. Cant go wrong with that describtion of the game.
Thank you! Altho Astral chain I saw is like 20hours of action, but Persona is gonna be like 70? ish? So maybe I am better off starting with this, or do one Platinum game, that being either Nier or Astral chain, follow it up with 70-100hrs long jrpg or swap between them based on mood, and then finish off with another Platinum game that I didnt play at first. @@worldsboss
@@Aizengale Persona 5 Royal took me around 120 hours, and I know that sounds incredibly intimidating, but I don’t regret a second of it. It took me a few months to actually roll credits on it, but you could probably play both at the same time and still be ok.
These are my favorite style of videos that’s you do
am new to Switch, and love these kind of videos, thank you for making these
What were the games shown in the beginning before the countdown?
The way you talk about these games really makes me enthusiastic to play them. I own but not yet played Live a Live, XC DE, XC3, DQ XI S, P5R, Ni No Kuni, and a few others. I own and played BotW and started TotK, but now I am into Nier Automata. I definitely want to buy XC2 and Astral Chain now too. Thanks for your awesome and honest review. Cheers!
Nice list! Would have put P5 number one though like the channel you got a subscription
Thanks for the sub!
Not much new here, lots of brilliant games in the list as always
1# XC2 + Torna is the correct answer
can you play xenoblade 3 even when you havent played other xenoblade? or do you suggest an order to play them.
Valkyria Chronicles II was released for the PSP in the West. However, III was never localized like you said.
I liked the way you named timestamps 😅
25:11 Pokémon has always had a compelling single player they always prioritize their lore it’s very detailed
Sick thumbnail, OJ 👍🏼 someone should make a really cool fan art of the Nahobino and Pyra, and not one of THOSE fanarts lol
I can't resist to click this video because of the thumbnail😅 love both of these characters
This the type of content I like too see you make💯
MHSR looks amazing on the Switch indeed, really smooth.
After seeing it on pc and ps5, the switch is the worst place to play it by far
All games are very good. Thank you so much!
can I have the games listed please so I can reference them?
Great list, Nintendo Switch is my favorite way to play JRPG.
I really love that Xeno 3 is on the first spot, my God that game is a masterpiece, it's my favorite game ever
Neo the world ends with you is such a based pick, you deserve a like just for that
Astral chains has very similar ties to chaos legion from the ps2 era. The sword, arrow, fist legion etc.
i recommend cyber sleuth complete edition aswell. its two games in one and goes on sale all the time.
OT 2 has one of the most beautiful HD2D graphics.
Im still trying to find that one switch game with blue menues and it shows the the party together i think 3 or so very artsy and there was a witch character too
I already knew Xc3 was gonna be number 1 before I watched this 😂 good video
The only thing they might throw people off in his Top 5 is remembering that he thinks Astral Chain is an RPG.
@@bethanyh1637 how do you define an RPG? IMHO:
1. Is there a Level up system with STATS increase.
2. Do you have HP, MP or SP?
3. Do you have some kind of skill tree or any other grow system?
4. Is it Story heavy?
5. Can you explore the world?
6. Any craft system?
7. Any shops to buy items?
I did not play Astral Chain, but if all above is answered with a Yes, Astral Chain is an RPG.
@@aaron6493 With those rules, Call of Duty is an RPG.
@@bethanyh1637 I have never played Call of Duty but I really doubt that CoD will get a YES on ALL the 7 questions.
@@bethanyh1637you tried it
I hope they make a physical for Sea of Stars, and Chained echoes while waiting for eiyuden chronicles.
Monster Hunter Rise is one of my favorite games on the Switch. Sunbreak was definitely worth the jump. *still watching*
Imo, there are a few other games that deserve a spot here, like Tales of Vesperia DE, Ni No Kuni 1 and 2, Bravely Default II, Ys VIII and IX, Fate Samurai Remnant, Rune Factory 5, Trials of Mana. Otherwise, great and almost complete list.
Xenoblade 3, octopath traveler 2, fire emblem engage, triangle strategy,shin megami tensei v, fire emblem three houses in that order lol
I know it's a good list when I see Xenoblade and Persona on the top. The GOATS of modern JRPGS.
Can you do a meh & mid 25 JRPGS thx ☺️
Great list still I miss Front Mission Remake, Undertale and TWEWY 2. My personal favorites are SMTV, MHS2 and FE3H... and Xenoblade 3 Future Redeemed if that counts.
Yes! Thank you for showing astral chain😊. I don’t see many talk about this game 🥹
How is Ys Viii Lacrimosa of Dana not on your list?
Watching this makes me realise how many great exclusive RPGs released on this damn system lol. Astral Chain, Xenoblade 3, Triangle Strategy, FETH, MH Rise+Sunbreak, SMT V etc., stone cold classics.
It’s even crazier to think that it will get even better on the Switch 2, what with stronger hardware and more devs that will take the system seriously from the beginning (looking at you Atlus 🙄).
I would love to play Atelier Ryza 3 but I honestly do not think I now have the time to play the first two before.
Thats my problem with JRPGS can be unnecessarily long wanted to play Persona ever since i was young and now that im an adult and own the console , man i had to drop P5 an hour in because of the excessive needlessly long dialogue and diversions.
Looked it up and was right its handholding tutorial stops at around 20 hours in which is crazy and on average need 120 hours to complete.
Its really tough as an adult with not so much free time.
Tried to look into shorter series established series and most of them have a bunch of previously release iterations that you need to go through to catch up.
I also really love ff12 zodiac age but I'm its a ps2 game remastered so probably doesnt could but that is soo good to play on switch. Also smt3 nocturne
If he thinks SMT5 is hard then I'd LOVE to hear him talk about SMT3
NEO is so slept on
I'm a big fan of Xenogears and Xenosaga, so now I'm trying out Xenoblade Chronicles, seeing what it's like.
I'm starting with the third game, which people say is the best, but I also have the first one.
SOLID LIST. Couldn't agree more!
well this is interesting, especially the #1 on this list.
I am interested in or have played 10 out of these 25 JRPG's
You can beat the trails games relatively quick if you use the turbo button
Man I dunno there's more than 10 games
@@athorem and? All are good to amazing
@@obba40 I don't doubt it. I'm making the way through the series myself. It's good but it's taking a very long time even with a speed up button
@@athorem not a problem imo. I don't see the issue worrying about that
MHS 2 runs amazing on Switch (lite).
I know some are angry but I also know there will always be disagreement, I am happy to see 2 trails games on the list.
my all time favorite jrpg series is the Tales Of Series. but Xenoblade has become my #2 . well its pretty close with Xenoblade and Dragon Quest. however for me Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is my favorite of the series thus far . i love all 4 games but XB2 just holds a special place for me .
Something very small and unique about JRPG SKIES OF ARCADIA is that the main character has 2 girls who like and travel with him and romance is not even the main genre of the game.
AND ALSO ITS NOT SOMETHING STUPID WHERE YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE 1 OR THE OTHER
Is JRPG a Style of RPG?
A Japanese style
23 Games in my collection 😊
Another banger
Make a space for Astlibra Revision.
"the new goat"
You're goddamn right
I don’t know about you but the main characters on Neo World Ends with You are DU-umb to the tenth power. Like… wuuuh??? 😂
Best action RPG OJ, Fate Samurai Remnant.
Tactics Ogre: Reborn deserved a place, it's better than Triangle Strategy. Fantastic story and top tier tactical gameplay.
Reminds me to play both of them again...
Yea, but at least Triangle Strategy is new.
I think the list omitted ports for a reason. If it didn't, stuff like Ni No Kuni, Tales of Vesperia, Grandia 1/2, FFVII and FF IX would dominate the list. These all got physical releases too.
Excelent.
"Edelgard was Wrong" omg THANK YOU
It is truly a pitty that Fate Samurai Remnant is THE best RPG out there on the Switch and it's not getting all the fuzz it deserves. I have clocked so far 40+ hrs in this game so I can give a solid opinion on how good this game is.
It's a very good RPG for sure, but far from the best on Switch with the likes of SMTV, Xenoblade 3, FE Three Houses and Dragon Quest XI S available on the platform.
@@Murasakitsuyukusa it's all about preferences, no game has hooked me like Fate Samurai, the more I play the better it gets, both in the mechanics and the story. Because I am playing on the highest difficulty it is a true challenge some boss battles are really tough on hard mode and with every win is a great sense of satisfaction. IMHO is deserves a seat in the top 5 at least. I played all the games you mentioned except SMT V, DQ XI feels like a kid's game, the monster designs can hardly be taken serious.
@@aaron6493 Fate Samurai Remnant is mid, not lower because Gilgamesh is there but also NOT higher than mid because he ISNT playable.
@@ludwigkoopa3343 he will probably be in upcoming expansions so I am fine with that.
Xenoblade 3 is phenomenal i actually respect it as number 1.
But for me my list is
1.persona 5
2. Nier automata
3. Dragon quest 11
4. Xenoblade 3
5. Fire emblem three houses
6. Monster hunter rise
7. Xenoblade 2
8. Smt5
9. Octopath traveller
10. Dragon quest builders 2
Fire emblem engage is a great game
Id like to add an Honorable Mention to this list in the form of Star Ocean: The Second Story R who couldn,t make it to this list because it releases tonight as of writing this comment
Story
Overworld Section
Battle phase
Charaters
Early contender!
In my opinion Dragon Quest XI S is the best jrpg on Switch. Its just that good.
There are only two endings to Sea of Stars. You keep acting lile there are several. You can find secret "developer" room, if you want to count that as a third, but it's not a true ending of the game.
In no world would I rank sea of stars over chained echos.
25:11 The franchise has always been innovating and changing things up so I wouldn’t say predictable
Predictability isn’t the samething as tradition
They have always experimented with new concepts and mechanics
Like breeding,natures,abilities, following pokemon, overworld encounters, physical special split, mega evolution,Zmoves, gigantamax/dynamax amie/refresh/camping, even motion controls from let’s go do these features not count as evolving/progressing are these things not ambitious?
The restructuring of the traditional Pokémon format by having the third legendary as the main focus not to mention being the first Pokémon games ever to do DLC and the regional evolutions
Also the various QoL stuff even having dynamax and gigantamax and you would not have SV without the wild area all of these new ideas and things for the franchise
Are these not ambitious
I mean all these things have changed the franchise in substantial ways
Every generation offers something ambitious is replacing gyms with trials not ambitious? Or making the galar league a tournament like the anime instead of a traditional elite four is that not ambitious
Sure none of them have ever been this super drastic
But to say it’s “finally evolving” is a bit disingenuous
Has the steps in previous games been a bit smaller I mean sure
But baby steps and even medium steps is still progression
Why do we count this and not those
Shouldn’t it all count?
Some of these things maybe temporary but they are still creative and ambitious and drastically change the course of the franchise so they count
don’t think you actually expect someone will read this lol 😂😂
chained echoes number 1
“edelgard was wrong” VILE💀💀💀
Cold steel 3 has a good pacing? Funny
Just because a game is made by a Japanese developer does not mean its a JRPG (Nier Automata and Monster Hunter Rise)
Once Atlus releases a mainline SMT game with actually good story, characters, and alignments, SMT V is going to be forgotten so quickly. People will struggle to remember anything about it other than "It's the one with the femboy protagonist and uhhhh.... deserts."
People value different things in these games, for me personally story is near the bottom of that list.
@@anab0licRegardless, when a franchise's claim to fame is the alignment system, you'd think they'd put more effort into that system than just making it a Mass Effect 3 style 'choose your ending'
Same Here. Playing Smt4 and 3, I think five was just lackluster. Something about 5 has the inspiration of smt3 nocturne but fails to capture the spirit of 3 nocturne and world-building of 4.
@@protagnist5622 Well said.
@@athorem Is that really its 'claim to fame' though? For me these games are mostly about the combat mechanics/demon fusion/party customization. That's why this game is often referred to as 'Pokémon for adults.'
Thanks for the xenoblade 3 spoilers
SMTV was So Good, I almost left my wife for it. I regret that I didn't.
a new list... three days before Star Ocean 2 R....
Nier Automata is the best game ever made IMHO. I wouldn't consider it an RPG though.
No Ni no Kuni ? No Final Fantasy VI ? No Tales of Symphonia? No YsVIII ? No Trials of Mana? If ports are disqualified, why is Valkyria Chronicle 1 and The World Ends with You on your list? (Although I agree that Valkyria Chronicles 1 should be on your list, it's a phenomenal game.)
Your comment is a great example of why Neo The World Ends With You was a truly awful name from a marketing perspective. This isn’t the game that originally launched for the DS, this is the newer sequel that came out for Switch and PS4 in 2021. They look exactly the same in trailers though, so I do get it.
Don't forget Tales of Vesperia and Ni No Kuni 2

You gamers y’all just love to complain don’t you?
This is OJ’s PERSONAL top choice of JRPG games on the Switch! And they’re just 25 of them in the title at that. Not EVERY RPG that you like has to be exactly what HE likes, let alone be on the top 25 list!
Also how dare you put the Xenoblade Chronicles series in the category of BASIC!
Your list is very basic and most of those game would have been considered a action adventure game back in the day.
That tales of games don't belongs on no list when you remaster a game and Break it.
no fsr huh damn and here i thought it was decent enough to be played by people who doesn't know fate series
Great list OJ, the Switch is a proper haven for quality RPG's.
WHAAT LONG VIDDDD
SmtIV was 5x harder than V
(also 5x better than V)
So what?
NO Y's?
Monster hunter rise is not a jrpg...just becuase a game is made in Japan doesn't make it a jrpg. Its an action game with rpg elements like Zelda.
Some are PC Games.
Astral Chain is not RPG. Its action adventure hack n slash game. Thats what im sayin
