Rayman Legends: The Before Mario Wonder

Before Super Mario Bros. Wonder does not end the significant lack of two-dimensional platform games, one of the references in this field was embodied by Rayman Legends. First released in August 2013, it benefited from a port to the Nintendo Switch on September 12, 2017. An edition that doesn’t revolutionize the content but allows players to enjoy a great title on a portable console.

Enough to extend the platform game adventure on Nintendo Switch.

Diablo 2: One of the most influential video games, quite simply

Diablo 2 is undoubtedly one of the most influential video games of its genre. When it was released in the early 21st century, it created codes that continue to exist 20 years later. Fans of role-playing games, and Hacken Slash in particular, give it a special place. It is thanks to their enthusiasm that Blizzard decided to give it a luxurious facelift in 2020, through the work of Vicarious Visions.

For others who are curious but not necessarily fans, it should be emphasized that “Lots of customization elements” is available to improve your experience in terms of difficulty.

Doom: Father of FPS

As we saw with Diablo 2, the Nintendo Switch doesn’t just rhyme with the general public and no-brainer video games. Like Hacken Slash previously named, Doom is undoubtedly one of the most influential video games of all time: it is to him that we owe the formula of FPS (First Person Shooter) ), or that first-person shooter. Just bright.

DBZ Kakrot

Sad year for Dragon Ball fans. They had to say goodbye to the creator of the work, Akira Toriyama. He is considered the father of shonen and it is certain that his influence will continue in the years to come. In any case, Dragon Ball exists and fans should eagerly await Dragon Ball: Sparking! Zero which recently benefited from a major gameplay sequence. To be patient, Dragon Ball Z: Kakarot could be the solution
