My favorite genre, I always love co op. The heartbreaking part is so many of these games are couch co op only. However I'm grateful to have any options at all.
What an amazing and comprehensive list, Luke! We really appreciate all the work you put into it. Lots of fun and interesting titles, for sure. The only games I can think of that you may have missed are Tonight We Riot and I Am The Hero. You pretty much covered the whole genre on the Switch though. Thanks again, brotha.
I own Mother Russia Bleeds but haven't yet played it, I love Scott Pilgrim though, played through the original release in one sitting lol, great music too.
Man, "Raging Justice" is such an underrated gem. No idea why this game is so overlooked, since it's a super solid, unique beat'em up! I've made a pro run on it, if anyone's interested, it's on my channel.
@@SwitchStars It's just a little different from the usual classic formula, but once you get the hang of it, it's super solid. I guess, many people overlooked it because of the visuals too.
How is he adding the river city games all at the end like they’re some sort of afterthought of a brawler?! Those are THE BEST beat em up games you could play on the switch!! Like definitely top 5 and arguably number 1! That’s crazy…
🤣 that's the great thing about having an opinion. I just try to highlight a bunch I know are decent, then compile a list of the rest, I couldn't rank them best to worst though.
Great list. A lot of work went into this. It’s appreciated. You covered a lot of games I never heard of. The kind of games are on the eshop but don’t get covered.
The Takeover is my favourite on Switch and among my favourites ever. Code of Princess also doesn’t get enough airtime it seems, perhaps because there is a learning curve to it that is unique. Raging Justice was one I was really excited for in screenshots, but god damn that one is awful. Great presentation, but terrible game feel. I love the rest of this list though, as there are a few on your top ten that I hadn’t heard of that look pretty awesome. Great video again as you continue to surprise with coverage on titles I would otherwise completely overlook.
I didn't realise how many there actually were on Switch, my list just grew and grew 😂 definatley a lot that I need to play though, the Takeover is one of them. I did see Raging Justice had mixed reviews, it caught my attention with the visuals and it looked a little old skool jank lol. Cheers Scott.
I can tell you Switch has amazing deals! Great indies and awesome beat em ups I purchased a game from trying demo I , key words, "I" thought it was so good and crony funny! Laugh out loud funny ... Skinny And Franko Fist of ... Ah, I forgot, but it was super fun! Soon, Mad streets, I'm buying ... It's a physics based beat em up 3d world . It's kind of an abandoned game, but what's there is GOOD! on pc.
Heyo. Ive texted your praises in this forum before so once again thank you for all the time you spend making amazingly concise and fair videos. Do you do any art,music, programming or whatever?? I just started working on learning how to program for the PlayDate and because I respect your opinions and stuff I just got to thinking... If maybe I figure how out how to program maybe we could throw some shit and hopefully it hits the fan. One way or another,thank you for all the enjoyable content. Ryan in Minnesota U.S.A.
Hey Ryan, thank you. I actually do all three to certain degrees, though mainly music composing as a hobby and scripting in work to create power apps, but I've done a little Java and Python before. Not heard of PlayDate before? Any good?
@@SwitchStars I've downloaded SDK playdate, just type that in and look at their development tools...It appears to be C++ but with more object oriented programming. I seriously couldn't tell any difference now that I'm 40 and went through 10 years of becoming no longer addicted to drugs. I thought that maybe my struggles in the last 10 years would only benefit this product.
Please note that the Dawn of the Monsters footage showing the game run at 60 fps is inaccurate, the switch version runs at a choppy 30 fps, which is weird considering the game's almost low poly art style. A definite disappointment for me.
As is the case with most e-shop trailers, the footage is probably taken from the PC version and it's a joke that Nintendo constantly allow this to happen. Thanks for the info though Moi Moi, appreciated.

Thank you for your hard work on this video.

Yea, there around 10 of them which feature online multiplayer, but I use to love sitting with my bro playing SOR and Golden Axe back in the day.
I still play all 3 all the time. Any arcade port multi-player I'm down for. Sor4 all day long. Can't wait for ninja turtles from dotemu.
Yea turtles looks cool and the collection looks like a great one for people looking to replay some classic turtles games.
I just got the Scott Pilgrim vs the world game yesterday. Im gonna play with my younger siblings asap.
It's a great game Joe, bosses are awesome in it.
Did it get fixed? I got it a long time ago and it was almost unplayable from all the glitches. @@SwitchStars

Thanks Cracka 😊 also thanks for those two suggestions, I trawled the Internet In search of every game I could find and they didn't appear once!
Good stuff. More videos like this would be great.
Thanks Jeidono, I'll see what I can do 😊
Tunche looks great on the OLED. Fight n rage and Mother Russia Bleeds are prob my two favs on Switch. I find Scott Pilgrim too difficult to enjoy.
I own Mother Russia Bleeds but haven't yet played it, I love Scott Pilgrim though, played through the original release in one sitting lol, great music too.
Scott Pilgrim is definitely difficult solo. I made my daughter help me lol.
Man, "Raging Justice" is such an underrated gem. No idea why this game is so overlooked, since it's a super solid, unique beat'em up!
I've made a pro run on it, if anyone's interested, it's on my channel.
Ive heard people say it's a little clunky but there seems to be plenty who have enjoyed it. Nice work 😊
@@SwitchStars It's just a little different from the usual classic formula, but once you get the hang of it, it's super solid. I guess, many people overlooked it because of the visuals too.
Ninjin is a ton of fun
Played first 3 levels of The Takeover.Nice and addicting,so far
Yea looks like a great one that, one I still need to play!
How is he adding the river city games all at the end like they’re some sort of afterthought of a brawler?! Those are THE BEST beat em up games you could play on the switch!! Like definitely top 5 and arguably number 1! That’s crazy…

Weapons in beat em up loose purpose when they break and go fast.
I personally think it keeps the focus on the beat em up combat though, rather than turning the game into more of a hack and slash title.
Great list. A lot of work went into this. It’s appreciated. You covered a lot of games I never heard of. The kind of games are on the eshop but don’t get covered.
Thanks matey, took a while of searching to compile lol, hopefully you saw something you like the look of.
The Takeover is my favourite on Switch and among my favourites ever. Code of Princess also doesn’t get enough airtime it seems, perhaps because there is a learning curve to it that is unique.

Awesome collection bro, thanks, Scott is on sale
You're welcome Smurf, there are quite a few currently on sale I noticed!
Thank you for putting this together think im gonna get all the online co-op games 💯 this channel just gets bigger and bigger! Good job my friend!
You're welcome Kernard, enjoy and thankyou.
Wait, there is an 8 player beat em up? Ok, that is going on my wish list 👍
Yea not sure how good it is but I was surprised to find it too.
I personally recommend the Takeover
I've heard good things about that one but not one I've played yet.
@@SwitchStars currently on sale (in US)!for cheap! Actually just bought it yesterday love it. Very streets of rage 3 vibes
Ah nice! My only other issue is that most beat em ups are way more fun when played alongside others, and I have noone to play with lol
Another amazing video man!!! Wow!!! What a list!!! Thank you for making this for us!!!!
Thanks Reagan 😊 they take a while but it's fun doing the research for them
Phantom Breaker is a new one on me, definitely tempted...
Though I noticed when you get a five hit combo it says "5HIT"
Haha it looks like a fun one though especially if you're looking for a frantic 4 player one.
Definitely a video to share with my family. P.S. we’re all dying to see you run into another bad game. You’re pissed off reviews are one of a kind.
Yea some good ones there for coop, I'll see what I can do this week 😂 not sure what's coming out, I'm so disorganised
Nice list, Im going to add a few to my wishlist Dawn of Moster and Figh n Rage looks great for me
Thanks dude, there are some great beat em ups on the Switch, id say its one of the best genres for the quality of its titles.
Phenomenal list! How did I miss so many gems?!
Thanks Anubiz, the e-shop is hard to actually navigate and has very little in the way of categorisation so its easy to miss a lot of great games.
Thank You!
Youre welcome dude
top games just amazing
I can tell you Switch has amazing deals!
Great indies and awesome beat em ups
I purchased a game from trying demo
I , key words, "I" thought it was so good and crony funny! Laugh out loud funny ...
Skinny And Franko Fist of ...
Ah, I forgot, but it was super fun!

It's a physics based beat em up 3d world . It's kind of an abandoned game, but what's there is GOOD! on pc.

How easy is the play.date programming to get into in your opinion? I'm waiting on mine to arrive before diving in.

I might have missed it in the video but Castle Crashers is great 4p local and online co op beat em up. :)
Yep it was in there, it's great fun, I enjoyed playing the original release of that one.
Vendetta Neo Geo 4 Life
Street of rage is best🔥
Does Phantom Breaker have CPU battles or you need other players?
13:06
Tron Legacy
Lol I was trying to think of what game you were referring to before I had chance to check the timestamp 😂
I'm not saying they stole it but it looks kind of identical.
Good ideas tend to get pilfered and used elsewhere 😁
Anders punch funny
He's a beast 😂
Why does everything you say sound like a super villain?
I have no idea, that's a new one though 😂
@@SwitchStarslike Dracula or Lex Luthor just invited me over to talk about games they like. Which I don't think has ever been done in fanfiction.
Haha 😂 I wouldn't mind that, I quite like Dracula.
one game worse than the other
