@@MrSweetPrince i get your point i just figured if its not one of the games that are generally loved by everyone it would fit better in the maybe section. You dont have to like zelda lol. Not every game has to be for everyone.
I just wanna say; I had someone get me the Spyro Reignited Trilogy for Christmas, and it is probably my favorite gift I’ve received. That may be partly because of the nostalgia that comes with it, but seriously that game is definitely a must in my opinion.

after watching you for well over a year, i finally was able to buy myself a switch, and ima be honest... i went a little overboard lol. got the 2019 switch+pokemon shield, luigis mansion 3 (because i loved the first one on gamecube) and as e-shop download octopath traveler, because it was massively discounted, ontop of that i bought myself a pro controller, and some little necessities, like panzer glass protective film for the screen, a micro sd and last but not least doc covers... because im still paranoid that i scratch my switch screen. i aint getting no christmas nor birthday presents early next year, but i'd say it was totally worth it. :D
The one single quibble I have is that Hat in Time should be in the Must section, absolutely one of the BEST platformers that's released in year and is worth its cost.
I own all BS and BL on 3 different systems I don't need them all on a 4th haha. But I would buy them again if they did. They may be since they have been adding tons of old trash to it already
I mean it's very do-able and honestly I would love that since growing up I was stuck with handhelds meaning I only got to play console games at relatives' houses
@@kuvjason7236 imagine thinkung hey where has my son been all day? Then hes playing mario party alone all day. Also the kid in mind could be a humoungous nintendo fan.
Then go play the game togheter with your kid. Now a days parents are always so bussy or self involved. It would be good spending more time with their kid.
This is very useful, thank you! As someone who lives in a place where Nintendo isn't too well known I really struggle to know if I might like any of these franchises I've never played. I mean everyone raves about Fire Emblem but I have no idea if it might be a miss with me, guess I should just buy physical and sell it if I don't.
I think most people have forgotten about it by now. It's like pilot wings, heaps of people think it's a good game but you'll rarely see it on buying guides
Gonzalo Minguez it’s one of the first games I wanted when I got a switch but by the tome I got a switch it seemed like the hype died down lol. Are the servers even up still?
Same, but Hollow knight is £11, so how it ended up in the $30 bit i don't know. unless hes talking specifically physical i guess. Hollow knight could be £60 and still be worth it though jus sayin.
cat ghghgh that’s why I personally think It’s bad now there’s not much to do after a few hours of playing besides buying g the battle pass which I wouldn’t do.
Not Easyy like the other guy said it gets boring and that’s why in my opinion it isn’t a good game also paladins basically copied overwatch which is supposedly a much better game.
I highly recommend fire emblem three houses. It is a long game with a fantastic story line and amazing characters. To me it is better than Mario Odessy and Zelda breath of the wild. The only problem for me is what character class I should put my student in and how certifications work. I don’t know if I skipped through the tutorials or not (probably did) but I had some difficulty’s getting seals. I felt dumb when I could buy them in the market. I would also highly recommended looking up what classes best suit you’re student or just go with whatever you want you’re students to be. I don’t think that is a problem because I most likely skipped through all of the tutorials but it’s an amazing game 10/10. Pick blue lions house
nani I actually love the golden deer. They gave you so much information about who lady Rhea really is and why Sothis is in you’re head. I think the blue lions have better students, but the students in golden deer are still fantastic. I also think that the BL give you more information about who the villains are in the first chapter, example Lord Lonato and Sylvain brother (forgot the name). I don’t like what they did with Edelgard in the BL route, like why do they make her a monster. The final boss in golden deer I feel is much better. I finished BL and GD route and I’m in the middle of the BE route
Omg Im so glad Legend of Zelda, Pokemon Sword and Shield, and Astral chain were in the must by right now... I have all 3 Astral Chains, Pokemon Sword, and Legends of Zelda
This is my first time ever watchin ur videos. I loved the details about each game u give a rating to and a lil bout the game also...but MOST OF ALLL I LOVE YOUR BACK ROUND OF ALL OF YOUR GAMES n CONSOLES😍😍
okay so, I'd like to also recommend Cuphead and Celeste for the 10 - 20 dollar maybe section. They're in maybe because they're a little hard for the casual players

Who else doesn't even have a switch but just watches Wood because of how entertaining he is XD
ThatGuyMichael nope you broke
He's very charismatic, I used to watch him before I got a Switch but that changed a month ago :)
@@x4n0 Same, but I only just got my switch
The one single quibble I have is that Hat in Time should be in the Must section, absolutely one of the BEST platformers that's released in year and is worth its cost.
Sure, I've been buying a buncha games "for my kids" this holiday season...
imagine being a game dev and seeing your game on the avoid list... ouch lmao
When in college exam week, watching BeatemUps is a must :)
No Cuphead?
Such a good cheap game. I really thought this should have been on his list?!?!
(My Fav Game)
Amazing
its too difficult for me and the controls feel weird
I'd also recommend Stardew Valley, great game and amazing for the Switch.
I didn’t realize they had an over cooked double pack so I just bought over cooked 2 🤦🏻♂️
Great stream last night :D
I'm sad that Ori and the blind forest isn't on the list. It is my favorite game on switch!!
The word “corps” is pronounced “core” as in the marine corps
Too bad they don’t have the bioshock and borderlands series on the switch.
I own all BS and BL on 3 different systems I don't need them all on a 4th haha. But I would buy them again if they did. They may be since they have been adding tons of old trash to it already
I mean it's very do-able and honestly I would love that since growing up I was stuck with handhelds meaning I only got to play console games at relatives' houses
Those would honestly go on my top must buy list if they exsist.
They’ll put 007 goldeneye on the switch before borderlands
good news lol
4:00 I actually have a friend who SPECIFICALLY asked for deodorant for Christmas XD
gen101394 well, that stinks 😏
Well, that stinks...😏
Well, that stinks...😏
Well, that stinks... 😏
What a brilliantly edited and put together video!
Surprised he didn’t mention Stardew Valley, I would say that’s a must buy game
definitely that game is amazing
"Everyone loves Shovel Knight"
My Friend: Allow me to introduce myself
Alexander Schott I feel weird as well. Like, I enjoyed shovel knight, but I didn't LOVE it. I can see the appeal, but for me it's just alright.
It's nearly 2020 I don't want to play 2d games anymore
@@kvltleader91 i feel you
@Levi Kim I struggle to enjoy them. I didn't buy a modern system to run a game that could run on my old game boy advanced or ds
That moment when you buy mario party for your kid and thats his only game on switch.
Wocky pways lmao noooo
@@kuvjason7236 imagine thinkung hey where has my son been all day? Then hes playing mario party alone all day.
Also the kid in mind could be a humoungous nintendo fan.
But generaly yeah the game fine but that being your only game for christmas on your new switch?
Then go play the game togheter with your kid. Now a days parents are always so bussy or self involved. It would be good spending more time with their kid.
This is very useful, thank you! As someone who lives in a place where Nintendo isn't too well known I really struggle to know if I might like any of these franchises I've never played. I mean everyone raves about Fire Emblem but I have no idea if it might be a miss with me, guess I should just buy physical and sell it if I don't.
I’m surprised the expensive “don’t buy” didn’t include “ARMS” lmfaoo
I think most people have forgotten about it by now. It's like pilot wings, heaps of people think it's a good game but you'll rarely see it on buying guides
Gonzalo Minguez it’s one of the first games I wanted when I got a switch but by the tome I got a switch it seemed like the hype died down lol. Are the servers even up still?
...what's "ARMS"?
I didnt like it on release but I've grown to love it. It's not worth 60 though, maybe 30-40
i bought arms on last black friday. It cost about 15$, itsnt so expensive
You actually recommended Xenoblade 😮👀
He truly was being honest
Me seeing Hollow Knight and Dead Cells in Must Buy: *happiness noise*
Same, but Hollow knight is £11, so how it ended up in the $30 bit i don't know. unless hes talking specifically physical i guess.
Hollow knight could be £60 and still be worth it though jus sayin.
Cactus I Guess where was Celeste at tho
"if you see a game with a horse on it, it's bad"
Paladins: *am I a joke to you*
cat ghghgh it is bad
@@roni5326 its not necessarily bad, it can get a bit boring
@@roni5326 debatable
cat ghghgh that’s why I personally think It’s bad now there’s not much to do after a few hours of playing besides buying g the battle pass which I wouldn’t do.
Not Easyy like the other guy said it gets boring and that’s why in my opinion it isn’t a good game also paladins basically copied overwatch which is supposedly a much better game.
Oh boy, this looks like a good video-
"Must buy: Super Mario Party"
IT'S A TRAP
Super Mario party suckksksskskskks
@@jayden6994 if you watch even further he says Bloodborne on the Switch is a must buy lmao
this coment made my day
I have 600 hours on super Mario party :p
slicedluke how and why??
I highly recommend fire emblem three houses. It is a long game with a fantastic story line and amazing characters. To me it is better than Mario Odessy and Zelda breath of the wild. The only problem for me is what character class I should put my student in and how certifications work. I don’t know if I skipped through the tutorials or not (probably did) but I had some difficulty’s getting seals. I felt dumb when I could buy them in the market. I would also highly recommended looking up what classes best suit you’re student or just go with whatever you want you’re students to be. I don’t think that is a problem because I most likely skipped through all of the tutorials but it’s an amazing game 10/10.
Pick blue lions house
Agree
no go for golden deer
nani I actually love the golden deer. They gave you so much information about who lady Rhea really is and why Sothis is in you’re head. I think the blue lions have better students, but the students in golden deer are still fantastic. I also think that the BL give you more information about who the villains are in the first chapter, example Lord Lonato and Sylvain brother (forgot the name). I don’t like what they did with Edelgard in the BL route, like why do they make her a monster. The final boss in golden deer I feel is much better. I finished BL and GD route and I’m in the middle of the BE route
Luigi Muttart cool, go golden deer
You've forgot "Yooka Laylee and the impossible Lair" !!!
Me: mom can my game budget be around 40$?
Mom: 2 take it or leave it
Omg Im so glad Legend of Zelda, Pokemon Sword and Shield, and Astral chain were in the must by right now... I have all 3 Astral Chains, Pokemon Sword, and Legends of Zelda
This is my first time ever watchin ur videos. I loved the details about each game u give a rating to and a lil bout the game also...but
MOST OF ALLL I LOVE YOUR BACK ROUND OF ALL OF YOUR GAMES n CONSOLES😍😍
16:33 “My kid better like it” ??? Excuse me, since when has sapling existed
Lowkey whenever I have trouble deciding what game I wanna buy I watch your videos😁
I really like wood when he's more chill like this :)
I don’t know where you’re shopping, but I got my Hollow knight for $15 like the original price it is for other consoles.
It's the physical edition, so...a little more expensive
okay so, I'd like to also recommend Cuphead and Celeste for the 10 - 20 dollar maybe section. They're in maybe because they're a little hard for the casual players
Same I'd also throw in hollowknight and shovel knight as they are both really good games but are also really difficult
I pray that you make another one of these 2021 holiday season
I HIGHLY recommend Terraria. Its a bit more expensive than the steam version but its totally worth it for the portability
Games Between $20-30 and $40-50: So are we not recommended at all?
Raymond Wang those games are still included, just not in separate categories
DXM: avoid as christmas present
Me: is going to get the orbital limited edition for christmas lol
Watching this now some 8 months later haha love the videos, always fun to listen to
*any game with horse*
Dragon quest 11: I cease to exist
Beatemups: "if it has a horse on the cover, dont buy it"
Me: "i guess i shouldnt but BoTW"
there is no horse on the cover of BotW
@@nudl3Zz FAIL
