The prevalence of online multiplayer has unfortunately led to the decline of local gaming options for most consoles, with the exception of the Nintendo Switch. This can be attributed to Nintendo’s longstanding focus on the joy of playing with loved ones in the comfort of one’s own home. Whether engaging in a lively four-player race in Mario Kart or exploring an array of mini-games in Mario Party, the Switch provides endless entertainment on a single console connected to a television. Connecting additional controllers to allow others to join in is a breeze, and friends who have their own Switch will likely have controllers of their own. Plus, the Switch’s portability means you can enjoy playing with friends in person while still having your own private screen. Good luck achieving that same level of camaraderie with a PS5.
