Got the urge to play some shooters lately. Thing is idk many on switch (I mean my actual switch, not an emu this time)

Downloading warface as I’m writing, I remember it being OK.

Does the switch have any good ones?

    BPM: Bullets Per Minute. A boomer shooter had an affair with he rhythm game genre and this was the outcome. Amazing game, assuming you don’t mind rhythm games, and an immaculate one if you actively like rhythm games.

    Neon White is technically a shooter, but in most ways does not play or feel like one. It’s better described as a first person puzzle/platformer, but I would still recommend it, as it is an incredible game.

    Both of the Doom ports run insanely well on the Switch. Seemingly impossibly well considering how dated the console is.

    Warframe is good, free and playing surprisingly well on Switch.

    Splatoon is just awesome.

    Metroid Prime series are more “action games” than FPS’ per se, but they are must-plays if you haven’t, & might scratch that itch. There’s a switch remaster of the first game, none yet for Prime 2 or 3 but it’s likely they’ll come out leading up to the release of the recently-announced Prime 4

    Warframe? Third-person, but shooting is still a fundamental element (in addition to powers and melee).

    Has one of the best F2P models out there, and runs on potatoes.

        I don’t play anymore, but I sank over 1500hrs into it. They’ve had several content updates since then, too, so there should be plenty to keep you busy.

        Word of advice for starting: focus on opening up every planet in your star chart. After that, you should have access to every mission and event.

    I have not played it yet personally, but they have the turok trilogy bundle on the switch. I’ve heard those games are good. The serious Sam collection is also available and that’s a lot of fun
