Nintendo Switch is a hybrid video game console made by Nintendo. The system represents a tablet-like device with a touchscreen with detachable controllers on the sides. The system can be inserted into a docking station connected to the TV and serve as a home console. This allows the games on the system to be played both on a big screen or in the handheld with no need to reset the system to change the modes. The central controller for the Switch is a pair of Joy-Cons – small controllers both of which feature four face buttons, an analog stick, two side buttons, and high-definition vibration. The controllers can be used separately by different players, together using a grip accessory or attached to the system in handheld mode.
Unlike many previous Nintendo consoles, as for 2019, the system has strong support from third-party developers, especially from the indie scene. The Switch introduced Nintendo Switch Online, a subscription-based service that resembles Xbox Live Gold and PlayStation Plus. It allows players to play online multiplayer, offers a selection of classic Nintendo games and lets players use cloud saves.
RAWG publishes an average score only once a game has collected
6 or more user votes. Below that it
returns 0.0 — while still returning the full vote
breakdown. So a game nobody has ever rated and a game with five
“exceptional” votes arrive looking identical.
Those suppressed scores are recomputed from the breakdown, which recovers 0 of the 1 games here that would otherwise read as unrated. The rest have no votes at all — mostly obscure, regional or unported titles. That is a real absence, not a gap in the fetch: there is nothing to retrieve.
Everything with a vote ranks in one table, because the order is weighted rather than a raw mean: a score is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 (too few ranked games here to take a local one) in proportion to how thin its evidence is, so a two-vote 5.0 settles near the middle instead of on top. Metacritic joins at half that weight where it exists — 1 of these games have one.
Ordered by a weighted score, not the raw mean: each game's own average is shrunk toward the all-years mean of 3.79 in proportion to how few votes it rests on, and Metacritic is folded in at half that weight where it exists. A 6-vote 4.67 therefore ranks below a 2,100-vote 4.45 — the raw figure is shown under each score, and sorting by raw score ignores the weighting entirely.
Bars show how the votes split —
Exceptional, Recommended, Meh, Skip.
A ~ on the raw figure marks a score recomputed from a
breakdown RAWG suppresses.
