Thank you but the last one is the only playable one

octopath traveler demo as well. I forgot about lack of joycons, sorry.

there are a few other demos, but that's one thing lacking on the switch. I wish there was a demo for every game. bad thing is there's no way to remove demos from your nintendo account. you can delete them, but they'll be in your history. I buy digital only, so it's frustrating when I've had to redownload things, only to accidentally select a demo of a game that I own the full version of.

edit: btw, octopath traveler for some strange reason has its own page for the demo as it's not listed with the game, at least when I downloaded it.

Fair point, i do think there are a lack of demos on the eshop. For example, i want a good job demo. On the topic of the history feature, it would not be hard to put in a sort feature.

dragon quest xi has a demo as well (just remembered that). I never beat the demo, but I've heard it's quite lengthy. and, the save can be transferred to the full game.

I once called Nintendo about that demo being in history. they claimed there was a way to delete it, but everything I've found online, including Nintendo itself, says you can't. I don't know what the guy was talking about.

I honestly dont know why they cant put a sort feature in the redownload software menu.

 

[godreborn]

dunno. I love the switch, but I wish nintendo were more like sony in at least fixing things while also adding more features. it's like they just fix things or make it harder for pirates and screw legit users.

yeah...

Although i think what they are trying to do is create a minimalist ux with a modern design and minimal distractions. Then again, the ps4 has a good ux design anyway.

A couple of other good free games:
Super Kirby Clash
Deltarune
Color Zen
In general, you can check the full list here. Note that many games on that list are multiplayer only, so they will require a Nintendo Switch Online Service Subscription to play.

I forgot about that kirby clash game. I downloaded it but haven't played it.

 

[Sneethan]

Thank you so much! but games like ninjala and fortnite dont need nso so does brawlhalla? it uses independant servers.

Not going to lie, I LOVED Super Kirby Clash. This is one of the few games that does In-Game Purchases right. The MAX Pack costs $40, but once you buy it, you get a virtually infinite supply of the premium currency (2000 every 12 hours), so there is absolutely no reason to ever pay more than $40. I played about 10 hours and loved it, got the MAX pack, and now I have no idea how many hours I've played. Fantastic game, and the best implementation of Free-to-Start I have ever seen.

Even if games have independent servers, any sort of online play requires NSO because of Nintendo's limitations on the platform.

Edit: Turns out I was wrong. Some games, like Ninjala, do NOT require NSO.

I also finished deltarune on pc should i replay it and beat the secret boss or just give it a miss and buy undertale which i put a few hours into?

 

[godreborn]

I love kirby. easy to beat, but damn hard to get 100% in those games.
