I still love mt Switch but it’s really starting showing it’s age now to the point Im not buying new games for it other than exclusives. Excited for the Switch 2 and also excited for the rise in activity it will bring to this channel. You guys really have something special here, thanks for the great and quality content
Just an aside that I’m so happy to see you guys landing different kinds of sponsors (or better yet, that sponsors are lucky enough to find audiences like yours). After all the work you’ve put into this channel, you guys deserve it. 👊🏽
Same! One of the best roguelites I’ve played for quite a while. It amazes me how much thought they’ve put into the gameplay. Very clever little game, and I love the pixel art too. Conveys so much with so little. Wish I could thank the devs in person! 😀
bloomtown may have some of the best 2D pixel art I have ever seen, I haven’t pulled the trigger on it yet because I was a bit hesitant but it just looks so damn good I may have to grab it
It's been an expensive few weeks! Plucky Squire was fantastic! I was so hooked I beat it in a couple days. I'm alternating between Bloomtown and Beyond Galaxyland at the moment they are both incredible games!
Seeing your review of Marvel vs Capcom sent me looking for the theme of the 90s xmen cartoon... its now my ringtone lol. Thanks SwitchUp, the only reason I like my phone to ring and I can happily let it ring out because that music is perfection 😅
I think you're being a little harsh about Zeldas performance... Yeah, I was gutted in Hyrule Town at the beginning and it CHUGGED like Thomas... But since then I've hardly noticed it Brilliant game! Double bicep pumps all round!
I've never played any Persona game so I will probably enjoy Bloomtown to its fullest and without bias. Bought it after your review video and start over the weekend. Wheeee xD
Same here! I don't like style of Person, nor the setting but I'm loving Bloomtown vibes. So playing a game with perfectly matched atmosphere AND some well tested gameplay mechanics has to be good. I'm buying it right now, thanks SwitchUp!
I’m glad to hear Plucky Squire got a performance patch for Switch. Next stop performance patch for Echoes of Wisdom to improve framerate and quality of life modifications 😊 Time for Plucky Squire in your next Patched Up video
Hey SwitchUp I just wanted you to know that you are such an amazing reviewers that you are in my top 3 game review channels even though I sold my Switch like a year ago. Most of the games are cross platform anyway (and Steam Deck runs them way better, too bad that form factor is not so sleek as Switch was) and your main focus is always on what is the most important in games (plus we have similar taste) that I fully value your opinion. Thank you for you amazing attitude and work guys!
Just stopping by to shout that I literally just this moment got Shogun Showdown at 50% off on the eshop! Must-buy at that price! Shame the Beyond Galaxyland video wasn't a full review, would have been interesting to see where it would have landed in such a strong month - I'm feeling like top 3 at least!
I’m sad but also glad to see so many top tier switch games with performance issues. Glad because I’m in the process of modding my switch so I can squeeze all the performance out of the chips! I gotta compile a list of games that work better with modded switch and I’ll share it around incase others are going to do the same when switch 2 comes out
Plucky Little Squire is gonna be my GOTY possibly GOAT. That or Iron Meat. Madshot will be in my top 5. It was on sale and bought it with my flyer points for the eShop. Gonna check out Evil Tonight and it might also be in my top 5. Maybe next month Reynatis....... Been on a 2D side scroller and 2D isometric binge lately.
Obviously I didn’t have the patience to wait for a Dominus sale 😆. Don’t regret it one bit! And MVC Collection is a dream come true. It’s more than nostalgia. This is what gaming is all about- ask any serious player in their 40s haha 😉
So weird not seeing Zelda at the top of the list 😢. I had a cracking time with it and the performance was not as terrible as some people have been making it out to be. There are definitely moments it struggles but overall I barely noticed. Finished the game last night and I had an absolute ball! 🎉
Wow when you mentioned hitting 40 ans thinking about things you hadn't had to before, I was worried you were going to be sponsored by a funeral insurance company and started to re-examine my own mortality but then it was skincare and phew 😅. Thanks for the review round-up gents. Here's hoping October is a cracking month for games. Cheers SwitchUp!
I went back MvC2 on my og Xbox and I was right, they've totally messed with characters in some bizarre balancing attempt that seems to have made it worse in these remasters. Iron man, scarlet witch the usual suspects are soooo OP 😬
I was enjoying Plucky Squire until I encountered a game breaking bug in chapter 6. One of the green portals didn't spawn. I checked a couple of playthroughs to make sure that it wasn't my mistake but it was for sure a bug. I tried to load an earlier save but the games save intervals are so close together that I couldn't load a save before the bug occurred. Loading an earlier chapter doesn't effect your current save either so I was out of luck. Not prepared to play all over again. The performance later on was pretty ghastly too. A ton of slowdown. Big disappointment. First game in 30 years of gaming that I couldn't complete because of a bug.
I don't usually comment on videos, but I couldn't disagree more about the look and style of Pizza Tower. I think it's a perfect nostalgic mash up of Ren & Stimpy, Wario, and MS-DOS games. Art is subjective, so I subjectively think you guys are totally wrong.
is the gun showdown (forgot the name) game similar to slay the spire? that is prob my most played game, bc its so easy to pick up even after months of not playing (not like rpgs which i love in theory but NEVER finish)
No slay the spire is not like shogun showdown but you can find out for yourself since shogun showdown has a demo. The games great tho and definitely worth a shot
September's highest rated games are decades old, and I have them on multiple platforms. September's other highest rated games all have performance issues and are derivative. I see in December, I'll be able to buy Soul Reaver again. It's like no one keeps old games, or has heard of emulation. PSP MAME anyone?
A Body Wash ad on this channel was so out of left field, you guys might wanna consider having video game related sponsors in the future… it was pretty distracting honestly, I thought I clicked on the wrong video
@SwitchUpYt I get battered by Manscape on my Footy RUclips channels. I'm fine the way I am, thank you very much! Worse than life insurance ads on daytime TV!
This was the one channel i thought wouldn't end up with Sponsored advertisement in their videos 🤮 I pay for RUclips premium so I don't have to watch that crap,but greedy RUclipsrs still stick ads in there,it's an unsubscribe from me Seeeeee yaaaaaaa!
It's funny, I said that someone would write exactly this comment when seeing the list. Congrats, you win. With a bit more effort, Zelda would have got the extra few % it needed to be top. They don't get a free pass 'because it's Zelda/Nintendo' here. They do elsewhere, so feel free to look around.
@@SwitchUpYt …but creating a new zelda without link as the main caracter and tons of new ideas like the echoes and the multiple ways to fight and getting forward wont be rewarded. Better go the easy peasy way with another retro 2d re-release no body asked for

So many great games came out in September! But my fave isn’t on this list! Beyond Galaxyland!
From this side of the world, the Philippines, these videos are part of my morning routine. Awesome!
kabayan! Wohooo!

September was a cracking month! My favourite (so far) is Shogun Showdown, the “one more run” is strong in this one…
Same! One of the best roguelites I’ve played for quite a while. It amazes me how much thought they’ve put into the gameplay. Very clever little game, and I love the pixel art too. Conveys so much with so little. Wish I could thank the devs in person! 😀
@@BlueKudu-33 Yeah it’s pretty great! Downloaded the full game one hour after I played the demo.
bloomtown may have some of the best 2D pixel art I have ever seen, I haven’t pulled the trigger on it yet because I was a bit hesitant but it just looks so damn good I may have to grab it
It’s incredible for sure. Mark
Excellent month. Switch owners usually eat pretty well, but this was like early Thanksgiving.
It's been an expensive few weeks! Plucky Squire was fantastic! I was so hooked I beat it in a couple days. I'm alternating between Bloomtown and Beyond Galaxyland at the moment they are both incredible games!
Can I ask, how does Bloomtown run on the Switch?
@@bubblegumplastic I haven't had any issues with performance, maybe an occasional slow down but nothing major.
Shogun Showdown is on sale at 35% off till the 3rd.
Beyond galaxyland didn’t make the list?!
We didn't review it. We did a video, but it wasn't a scored review.
@@SwitchUpYt are you doing one? I’d love to see an official review! I’ve been loving the game so far

Brilliant game! Double bicep pumps all round!
The performance is a little jarring but far from unplayable like some people are saying. After a while you get used to it
I hope it gets a patch, but it’s not a deal breaker by any means
Wait I haven’t experienced any performance issues on my switch lite? What kind of things are happening?
@@jwill294 I only get some frame rate hits in castle town, I’m not too far into the game. Otherwise seems to handle fine.

Different strokes, I guess, but I like the artwork of Pizza Tower and find The Plucky Squires artwork to be fugly.
Different strokes, indeed!

Bloomtown for me i wasnt sure about it but got it as soon as it came out and loving it pixel art rpg are finding a spot in my heart
We're stuck on chapter 6 of Plucky squire because of a game breaking bug that didn't get patched. Sad because we really were enjoying it.
Shogun Showdown is a banger! One of the best suggestions from this channel.

I can't help it, I just reallllllllly want to buy plucky squire. It looks so unique and cool, the art design is just fantastic and creating a vibe
I have a feeling echos is going to end up on the switch 2 with all the refinements you guys talked about!!!!!!
Beyond Galaxyland is a beautiful game that should of made the list. Shame!
Marvel vs Capcom is a lot of fun!

@@squarestar326 Great, enjoy 😃

Excited for my physical copy of the marvel Capcom collection 🏆
Im waiting for the physcial ver of mvc collection to come out
I really wanted to play graveyard keeper, but the load in time is ridiculous. I hope that newer game doesn't have that problem
The plucky squire Is such a fantastic game!!!! The only reason I hace put ir down for the moment, Is just because the new Zelda game.
Am I the first person to watch this video 😭
Loving this series btw ♥️ keep it up you guys!
Pizza Tower has real Wario vibes.
I went back MvC2 on my og Xbox and I was right, they've totally messed with characters in some bizarre balancing attempt that seems to have made it worse in these remasters. Iron man, scarlet witch the usual suspects are soooo OP 😬
The Plucky Squire was my top pick. So much better than the received score, in my opinion.
What would you have given it mate? Mark

6 games at 87%+. Not a bad month I’d say.

Poor performance seems like a recurring topic in the switch world
Definitely! Mark
It is on pc too. Plenty of bad ports on that platform as well only difference is hardware upgrades can brute force it.
