Since the launch of Nintendo Switch in 2017, we’ve spent thousands of hours exploring games across every genre imaginable from cozy farming sims and JRPGs to platformers, action adventure, roguelikes and hidden indie games. This collection page serves as the living archive of every Nintendo Switch title currently owned, reviewed, played or being explored by The Soft Reset. Our goal isn’t to own the biggest collection. Our goal is to help people spend less time regretting purchases and more time playing games they genuinely love.

We strongly prefer physical game cartridges whenever possible. Physical games feel more intentional to us. They can be displayed, shared with friends and family, preserved for the future and often encourage more thoughtful purchasing decisions. While we do own some digital games and game key cards, you’ll notice the vast majority of our collection consists of physical releases.

Like many Nintendo fans, we don’t have unlimited time to play every game we own and we’ll be honest: it would be impossible to fully complete every game we own. Instead, we focus on playing thoughtfully, working through our backlog and reviewing games at a pace that allows us to enjoy them properly. Games also occasionally disappear from this collection. Sometimes the game is just simply wasn’t for us so it was gifted to a friend or family or sold to another player who would appreciate it more. We believe a meaningful collection isn’t about keeping everything forever but mindfully curating what continues to bring joy and value to our lives.

The Soft Reset exists because we’ve made many of the same purchasing mistakes that most gamers and collectors make: buying games because everyone else was talking about them, buying games during sales we’ll never play and building a backlog faster than we can finish it. We have purchased games that are not playable in the language we wanted in the past and also bought the wrong versions of the games that we actually wanted which resulted in wastage of time and money. After countless of impulse purchases and lessons learned, The Soft Reset, is our finest attempt to create a more mindful way of collecting and enjoying games. Want to know what makes this collection different? Read our story.
