Nintenderos placed Donkey Kong Bananza at the top of its Nintendo Switch 2 game ranking. The outlet praised the game's real-time deformable and destructible terrain, noting that this design transforms platformer gameplay.
In Donkey Kong Bananza, players can demolish structures, dig into the ground, and use environmental debris for offense and defense as they venture deep underground with Pauline. Terrain interaction is the main reason Nintenderos ranked it number one.
Fire Emblem: Unraveled took second place on the list. The authors praised its branching narrative, tactical combat, and military management. Elden Ring came in third, with the authors citing its technical performance in both handheld and docked modes.
The ranking also discussed Mario Kart World's open maps and survival mode, as well as Resident Evil: Requiem's blend of horror and action through a dual-character experience.
