The game retains its original top-down perspective and follows the story of Link after he’s marooned on Koholint Island after a shipwreck. The updated graphics are brilliant and really bring the original story to life – well worth your time.
6. Mortal Kombat 11
Developer: NetherRealm Studios
Mortal Kombat 11 is, unsurprisingly, the eleventh instalment in NetherRealm Studios’ popular fighter franchise and seems to be back better than ever.
New gameplay features, such as Fatal Blows and Krushing Blows, combined with a fantastic story set in a corrupted Raiden, make for a brilliant Mortal Kombat game and it is well deserving of its ranking in this list.
5. Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled
Developer: Beenox
Not a lot of people may have heard that Sony’s loveable Bandicoot Crash, had made his way over to the Switch.
However, this year Crash made his first appearance on Nintendo’s hand-held console in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled, a remaster of the classic game Crash Team Racing originally developed for the PlayStation in 1999!
