Nintendo Switch players have enjoyed a successful period with the hybrid console\/handheld device as they\u2019ve been treated to some stellar titles. With the likes of Zelda and Mario continuing to entice newcomers to the hardware, the Nintendo Switch\u2019s success seems to be showing no signs of stopping.
