@@andrewwilson4733 It's certaintly not easy but if you keep pushing yourself, learning the track layouts & finding a machine that works for you, eventually a win will come!
I’ve probably put in over 200 hrs in switch online, I’ve finally finishing Ocarina of Time, Majoras Mask, Oracle of Ages and Seasons, Golden Sun 1 and 2, Paper Mario etc… it’s definitely worth it for me 😁👍🏾💪🏾
I don't have the expansion pack yet, but the value really has gone up in the last few years. N64 was my first console and Majora's Mask is my favorite game, but I will probably spend most of my time on NSO playing GBA.
An online game I really like that it seems no one has ever played is Fashion Dreamer. It pretty much requires online since you have to interact with players avatars to unlock more new clothing options.
As far as like games you can just play and enjoy with Mario Party, having the N64 games with online is dope and underrated. I finally got to play 3 for the first time and it's so good.
Jon, football in Switch Sports is actually amazing. Very easy to pick up and play, but astonishingly profound, gameplay wise. Actually, I think is the best of the bunch. Then tennis, then Golf. That's my TOP3 :)
Splatoon 3 may be my favorite game of all time. Up until my Pro Controller recently got stick drift, I probably only missed 1 or 2 Salmon Run rotations. Still have 3 Gold Stage Badges to go, but I'm sure I'll get there.
As someone with questionable lot of hours on both splatoon 1 and 2, I dare to say splatoon 3 feels so good, the controls are fluid, the new moves are great as the new weapons, the animations and vfx when you get the specials, the ink has a somewhat realistic texture and behaviour, the sound effects are on point, everything feels more crunchy, the music is so energetic feels awesome to get a win just because of it and everything is just so fast paced. It's trully the perfect splatoon game, I come back to Sp2 just to 100% it and it really feels the stiffness.
Splatoon 3 is my most-played online multiplayer game. About 850 hours and still going strong. I imagine I'll keep playing it regularly till Splatoon 4 comes out!
So fun! I play Mario Kart, Splatoon, Clubhouse Games, Switch Sports, Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, and Puyo Puyo Tetris. I only play Puyo Tetris over the phone with my friends though lol I also like to play retro games on Switch Online. The NES and Genesis has a lot of fun, simple multiplayer games! I wish I could play online with random people though.
F-Zero 99 is amaznig, and my favorite F-Zero. Even though it's not 100% unique/original, it makes up with really good gameplay and the rewards for unlocking content is nice. Do wish they'd add tracks from other games here. 2D Demakes of X tracks would be cool
Mario Tennis Aces and Mario Golf Super Rush both are tons of fun and get way too much hate. I can understand why people don't like them, but they're both great!
Great list! And with the exception of Mario Tennis, I still play all of these games as well! I do still own Mario Tennis, maybe I will throw that in this week too!
My favourite multiplayer games are Tetris 99 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Also really like Clubhouse Games and Splatoon 2 and 3 though I've fallen off 3 since I'm not very good.
I'm also playing F zero 99, MK8 deluxe and SSBU. Still so good it's really hard to stop. I haven't tried Tetris99 though I've seen people talking about it regularly. I'll probably give it a try.
12:04 What people don't realize is that Switch Sports still routinely makes it into the top 30 and often in the top 20 best selling games of any month. The "dead game" types are pretty blind to this.
NSO Is such a big deal I wish people would play It more regularly It can be a hassle to play cross region but find the right person and you could have weekly Goldeneye, Star Fox, Super Circuit, Four Swords, Pokemon TCG, Stadium
Really hope ARMS gets another chance someday, cuz it was genuinely underrated. Honestly, the only reason I dislike Switch Online (as well as Xbox and PS) is simply because you have to pay an extra fee just to play games (that you already paid for) online. That's pretty much it.
Y'know, I actually realized a bit ago that I kinda just dislike competitive multiplayer games. Being "good" at games is just not important for me, so they always end up feeling like a waste of time. I wish I understood the appeal
@@mrpiccionedivino5598 that's Genuinely brilliant to hear, sadly I'm not a fan of that series T-T but it makes me optimistic that they'll make more stuff like that; their like 6 hour long breakdown of the history of the Persona series was what got me to subscribe, and there were a few entertaining videos after that one, but nothing too enthralling ime
I have some questions about Nintendo Switch sports if you don't mind. 1. Do you need a lot of open space to comfortably play the game? Like Ring Fit Adventure. 2. Is the leg strap required for any game? Can you use the same leg strap from Ring Fit? I am thinking of buying this game digitally but don't want to miss out if the accessory is required.
1. You probably want enough space to stretch your arms out forward and sideways, so you don’t hit it on anything. 2. Leg strap is not required unless you activate the kicking mode in Soccer; only joycon motion controls are always required.
My problem with 99 games is that in all of them winning seems impossible. I played Tetris, F-Zero and Mario for a solid amount of time, and never won even once, and only got somewhere around top 10 a couple of times (and only in Tetris). I know that winning is not everything, but it’s easy to lose motivation when it feels so unachievable.
Have they balanced the damn vehicles for fzero 99 yet? It's fucking impossible to win with fire stingray or the green car because they get no fucking boost power or recovery
...Calling Mario Tennis Aces bad, just because free game, but also being able to meet Jon. But yeah, never bothered with that game, just was never interested.
I stopped playing online on switch after finding out that 75% of your online matches on Smash Ultimate are against online bots with input reading and perfect reactions to your button presses, and the fact that on tournament mode online only you and one other person are the only real players while the others are online bots with varying difficulties assigned to them. Your paying to play online to play against mostly online bots when you can play against the CPU for free in local multiplayer. Smh.
Never understood the hate for Super Mario Party. Like sure, I personally think Superstars is better, but A LOT of people have bought Super over Superstars. Must be the loud minority on the internet
“Included for free with a subscription service” doesn’t making any sense. It’s not free if you have to pay money for it. That’s like saying I got breath of the wild for free by just paying €60.

I want to say Daniel does most of the art for the channel but I could be wrong. And I agree, I love the style!
Jon is honestly my favorite video game commenter/youtuber. I love his opinions and views
So Jon is the other remaining F-zero 99 player.
i just dont know how you win that game its so hard, now I know I have no change with John always on
And me
@@andrewwilson4733 It's certaintly not easy but if you keep pushing yourself, learning the track layouts & finding a machine that works for you, eventually a win will come!
I’m a simple guy - I see Jon, I stick around
Was about to say the same lol
I just watch all GVG videos lol.
Hey everyone! Jon here!
Wait…you’re not Jon!
Hey all, Scott here!
Wait…you’re not Scott the Woz!
This is getting out of hand! Who’s gonna show up next? Fake Alex from NintendoLife?

An online game I really like that it seems no one has ever played is Fashion Dreamer. It pretty much requires online since you have to interact with players avatars to unlock more new clothing options.
Man I still miss and wonder why Streetpass never came back for Switch when Conventions have many people bringing theirs.
Yesssss Fashion Dreamer is so good! I haven't played in awhile but I have dozens of hours in that game, I need to go back to it again!
As far as like games you can just play and enjoy with Mario Party, having the N64 games with online is dope and underrated. I finally got to play 3 for the first time and it's so good.

Wii sports resort was so much better for many of those games
Jon talking about Tetris is one of my favourite things
Jon, my Monday is saved.
I don't play Online enough - appreciate vids like this to remind me :)
Splatoon 3 may be my favorite game of all time. Up until my Pro Controller recently got stick drift, I probably only missed 1 or 2 Salmon Run rotations. Still have 3 Gold Stage Badges to go, but I'm sure I'll get there.
It’s another Jon video!
As someone with questionable lot of hours on both splatoon 1 and 2, I dare to say splatoon 3 feels so good, the controls are fluid, the new moves are great as the new weapons, the animations and vfx when you get the specials, the ink has a somewhat realistic texture and behaviour, the sound effects are on point, everything feels more crunchy, the music is so energetic feels awesome to get a win just because of it and everything is just so fast paced. It's trully the perfect splatoon game, I come back to Sp2 just to 100% it and it really feels the stiffness.
Yep, always playing F-Zero 99.
Shoutout to Shredder’s Revenge. I still run it back on that occasionally. There’s always people to play with in story mode and the DLC.
Splatoon 3 is my most-played online multiplayer game. About 850 hours and still going strong. I imagine I'll keep playing it regularly till Splatoon 4 comes out!
Not gonna lie, if I see Jon is the one leading the video, I will click immediately
I love Mario Tennis Aces! I don’t play it a lot anymore but I still love it and will sometimes dabble in it
We love Jon!
Jon! Jon! Jon! Jon! We LOVE Jon!!!!!
I adore FZero 99
It's crazy how much you can rotate, it's almost like Nintendo Switch has games!
Knew this would be Jon
we know Jon in, and out.
So fun! I play Mario Kart, Splatoon, Clubhouse Games, Switch Sports, Monkey Ball Banana Rumble, and Puyo Puyo Tetris. I only play Puyo Tetris over the phone with my friends though lol I also like to play retro games on Switch Online. The NES and Genesis has a lot of fun, simple multiplayer games!

0:03 this is where my frown turned upside down
My only well played online game is Mario Party Superstars. It's just so fun to play with friends!
Mario Tennis Aces slaps and the fighting game comparison is apt.
Always love when a new theme comes around for Tetris99. I also have all the themes and if I were to miss one I would be rather upset
F-Zero 99 is amaznig, and my favorite F-Zero. Even though it's not 100% unique/original, it makes up with really good gameplay and the rewards for unlocking content is nice.
Do wish they'd add tracks from other games here. 2D Demakes of X tracks would be cool
Splatoon 3 has been one of my most played games since it released, almost completely due to my compulsive need to grind out every catalog 😂
Mario Tennis Aces and Mario Golf Super Rush both are tons of fun and get way too much hate. I can understand why people don't like them, but they're both great!
Alternative title: Tetris Games I Play All The Time
Great list! And with the exception of Mario Tennis, I still play all of these games as well! I do still own Mario Tennis, maybe I will throw that in this week too!
Tetris Effect Connected online needs more players. Please do yourself a favor and play TE:C. One of the best things humanity has ever done.
I really love Mario Tennis Aces, really wish I could find matches online. I can never see to get games when I go into the game
Would play with ya but stopped my subscription since my ISP stopped playing nice with my switch even when I was subbed.
My favourite multiplayer games are Tetris 99 and Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Also really like Clubhouse Games and Splatoon 2 and 3 though I've fallen off 3 since I'm not very good.
I wouldn't mind hearing games from other systems you or the rest of the GVG cast
I'm also playing F zero 99, MK8 deluxe and SSBU. Still so good it's really hard to stop. I haven't tried Tetris99 though I've seen people talking about it regularly. I'll probably give it a try.
🚨🚨🚨🚨 JONNER MONDAY!?!?! 🚨🚨🚨🚨
I have put in over 160 hours into Fzero 99. Crazy times!
Just Jon coming up with a hot take and making a video around it to have a reason to bring it up. I see you Jon!
12:04 What people don't realize is that Switch Sports still routinely makes it into the top 30 and often in the top 20 best selling games of any month. The "dead game" types are pretty blind to this.
Mario Tennis Aces is bad. There I said it. Now Jon has to come over and play with me
NSO Is such a big deal I wish people would play It more regularly
It can be a hassle to play cross region but find the right person and you could have weekly Goldeneye, Star Fox, Super Circuit, Four Swords, Pokemon TCG, Stadium
I really enjoy F zero, like a surprising amount haha.
Cheers
SAVAGE at @11:20
i agree that f zero is sooo addictive, mostly because i never win :P
Nice list. My most played is Super Mario Maker 2.
I’m only saying Mario tennis aces is bad so Jon can force me to play the game with him 😂
the only online games i play on the switch are mario kart 8 deluxe and splatoon 3
Really hope ARMS gets another chance someday, cuz it was genuinely underrated.

Mario Tennis Aces is terrible. I’ll put the coffee on. Haven’t had company in ages! 🎉
I hate Mario Aces. (now give me Mario Aces)
Y'know, I actually realized a bit ago that I kinda just dislike competitive multiplayer games. Being "good" at games is just not important for me, so they always end up feeling like a waste of time.
I wish I understood the appeal
Saying Mario Tennis Ace is your favorite is shocking when Mario Golf on GameCube and 3DS exists along with Mario Superstar Baseball.
Yeah Aces is so barebones and lacks any personality whatsoever
They got me to sub thru 1 super good SMT/ Persona video, and now they'll never make another video like that again :0
There is the xeno series video which is the same format as the SMT/persona one

Jon do you just use RUclips to MP3 to get the Monkey Ball OST in your vids
I'm surprised that you didn’t mention Mario Maker 2...
no one plays that game, in fact I feel like it never really got the same dedicated fan base the first one did
