Platforming games have always been fun, especially on Nintendo Platforms, but with so many greats, it hard to decide what to get next, so in this video I decided to compile a list of the Top 15 Best 2D Platformers available on the Nintendo Switch. Enjoy!

This video has such a high production quality that I was absolutely dumbfounded when I saw that it has less than 1000 views. Great work, you’ve totally earned my sub.

Feels good to see some recognition for Rayman :)

Oh, it's SO cool that you included Yooka-Laylee And The Impossible Lair. That game is one of my favorite 2D platformers of all time. Such a shame not a lot of people know about it. If you are reading this comment, and you haven't buy it, go ahead and do it. It's superb.

What a fantastic list. I didn't know about Splasher.

Raymond legends one of my favorite games of all time 10/10. From gameplay to level design. And all the music levels are a bonus

Celeste is truly an instant classic, truly astonishing game

I started gaming in 86’ on the NES. Celeste is, hands down, my favorite game of all time.

This is a very very great list! DKC Tropical is my number 1 favorite. Glad to see some love for Yooka Laylee and the Impossible Lair also!

Thanks for the video. 2d platforms are one of my favourite gaming genres.

Gris is maybe not one of the best 2D platformers on Switch. But if you look at the whole picture. Graphics, music, atmosphere...it’s definitely up there with the best games on Switch! I have like all the games on your list except for Splasher, will check that one out. :)

Platformers are just perfect in my opinion, I would take a platformer game over any fps game

[Carlitoxdiaz]

Hollow Knight is one of the best 2D games of recent years.

You forgot "Broforce", it is an amazing game!

[LaCheeserie]

Interesting you went with u deluxe over super Mario maker 2. I have heard the opposite and u deluxe in level design. I do want to play SMM2 but may need to add deluxe to list to at least try. Great video, easy subscribe decision. And Kirby looks fun I’m guessing that’s officially #16 honorable mention

[calebprenger]

Fun fact...celeste was originally made for a fantasy console called Pico 8. It became so popular they made a full game

[Ben-jxys]

Great video, but even better is your unconventional choices which I actually think you nailed. I was hoping Tropical Freeze would be number one, but I can't fault you for choosing Celeste over it. I really hope there is a new DK 2D platformer released on the Switch in its lifespan.

This is the first of your videos I've watched but you already got one more subscriber. High quality production and content here, man!

[elijahp]

I completely agree about rayman. It is so under appreciated. I have only played legends and some origins (might try other titles idk) but they are great games. You earned yourself a like.
