Here are some of the best Nintendo Switch games you can play on the go. These are games meant to play on a bus, a train, a plane or a long car ride.
The best Nintendo Switch games to play on long trips.
The Nintendo Switch has become the premier handheld console on the market, besting the likes of the Nintendo 3DS and PS Vita.
The Switch manages to pack the power of a home console into a handheld device that has a pretty decent battery life.
Taking the Switch out of the house with you has long been a selling point of the console but what good is a portable console if you don’t have games to play?
There are numerous games you can take with you on the go with the Switch but that doesn’t mean every game translate well to a large car ride on a small screen.
Let’s take a look at some of the best Nintendo Switch games currently available that you can play on the go.
Steamworld Dig
Steamworld Dig is a Metroidvania style game where the goal is to keep digging deeper into the ground.
Along the way, you’ll find shortcuts back to the surface and upgrades to your drill and pickaxe allowing you to dig deeper.
Many people say Steamworld Dig 2 does pretty much everything better than the original which is exactly why we’re suggesting the original over the sequel.
Steamworld Dig is still a perfectly playable game, it’s cheap and it will give you hours of fun and playtime. After you finish it you can move onto the sequel.
The Binding of Isaac
You’re going to see a lot of roguelike titles on this list because of their easy stopping points and short runs.
The Binding of Isaac has become practically the grandfather of roguelike games over the year but that doesn’t mean people have forgotten about it.
This game puts players in the shoes of Isaac as he battles against his mother. Along the way, he collects various upgrades to his weapons, health, etc. to help him in his fight.
Once you die it’s all gone but you just start over. It’s an addicting cycle and can be a great time killer on a long plane flight.
Dead Cells
This is a good game that got a lot of bonus publicity thanks to the plagiarism scandal revolving around it.
Dead Cells is another difficult roguelike where your gear and stats reset after every death.
