Hence, we would want them to give this gem a similar treatment as well.

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

A Paper Mario game always ends up being the highlight of a console’s library. And The thousand-year door was indeed the highlight of GameCube’s library. It was fun to play; it had a very good story and best of all, its writing was insanely funny.

We would love to see this game make a comeback on Nintendo Switch!

Viewtiful Joe

A side-scrolling beat-em-up starring an action hero. The guy is an actual action hero who stars in movies based on his own self. It had a very comical premise, but its gameplay was equally fun. A fast-paced beat-em-up that was developed by people who later left Capcom and founded Platinum games.

The same Platinum games that are known for making those insanely ridiculous action games.

The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker

This is the Legend of Zelda game everyone hated. Though they only hated it before they had a chance to play it, then it was noted in everyone’s “best Zelda games of all time” list. And it remains on most of those lists to this day.

This game stands out thanks to its unique art style and adventure that allows players to explore the sea! The game was remastered for Wii U, and we would not mind seeing that Remaster itself on Switch.

Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes

This is nothing but an improved version of the original Metal Gear Solid title. The game was praised for every single new feature it brought to the table. It was so popular that it was named the best version of MGS 1 for a while.
