I'd keep Overwatch for sure. It did sound fun when you guys were playing it, but as you know I don't want to play anything on a console I can't take on a Shinkansen.
So, wait, do I add two new options now?

Yes, so you post two games and one gets binned like Hearthstone just did.

I'm keeping RE4 since it's a classic and there's better burnout games than paradise.
My two choices are:

I'm keeping Cuphead as I'm yet to play it and might be great on the go plus Power Stone 2 is better.

Whoa whoa whoa! While this might have the makings of a fun forum game, and possibly the best thread title we've had in a while, I want to discuss all of y'all's choices! They're good discussion topics as well.
DISCOURSE WITHIN:
Mas' original two: I'm really struggling, they'd both be good. I think Overwatch, just. It feels to shooters what Smash feels like to fighters, in a way. I wouldn't honestly play either, but I think OW on Switch would be really popular and do gangbusters and make myriads off microtran- hold on.
Drunka's two: I've been curious about BP, so that. Jas, I thought Paradise was considered the epitome of the series? Am I badly wrong?
Jas' two: What the bloody 'ell's Powerstone? So the other one I guess.
Mas' later two: Catherine's just more my sort of thing. No choices that matter, and I like the quirky weirdness of it all.

Not going to pick one, going to leave that for the next person but I find it funny you picked Catherine which has at least 6 endings and I'd gather Full Body will have three more due to the 3rd C/Katherine Rin.
On the other games, I would have gone for RE4 as Switch could take all the HD stuff and add Wii motion controllers with Joy-Cons but not sure what Burnout is better then Paradise, if there is one, well I've not played it.
Power Stone, I guess people would call it a SMASH-like now even it's more of its own thing and the first didn't have four players.

I know a lot of folk like Paradise but I don't think anything beats Burnout 2 point of impact as the focus was on pure arcade fun, for me the later games lost a bit of that.

This is Powerstone.
Definitely has some similarities to Smash bros (since you use weapons/stage items or hazards to your advantage) like mas said but it's way more arcade-y and I just think it's a great fit for Switch.

Your Games:
Masofdas' two: Never played either, never even heard of Hearthstone. Overwatch, because folk seem to like that.
Drunkalilly's two: Burnout Paradise please, although to be honest it felt it's age on PS4. Resident Evil 4 is one of those games I should really do justice to on some console, but Burnout Paradise on the go is hard to resist.
Jaster's two: I'd port Cuphead and abort Power Stone. I've never been that mad for Power Stone - it's all right and I wouldn't be unhappy with it were a SEGA AGES eShop game, but Cuphead looks really interesting to me.
Masofdas' second two: I've no idea about either. Sorry!
Balladeer's two: Super Mario Sunshine, 100%. Thousand Year Door might be a decent game beyond the five-or-so hours I played when I rented it from Blockbuster in 2004, but there's no planet on which I'd play that again over something like Super Mario Sunshine.

Good thread idea!
Your games so far...
Spoiler:
Mas's first picks: I've already chucked loads of hours into OW, so you'd think the right answer from me would be Hearthstone, but I've never been that fussed to play it. Tricky one, but I think I'd go for OW in the end.
Drunka's two: Yeah, Burnout Paradise for me. Cracking game, that one.
Jas's choices: Cuphead, easily. It's one of the few games on X1 that I really wish I could play, so I'd take a port in a heartbeat.
Mas's round two: Selfishly, Catherine. I've not played it and it looks great, so that one. I've played and loved LiS, but to be honest, either would be great to see on Switch.
Balla's games: I think I'd like TTYD. I've never actually played it and it's highly acclaimed, so I'd go for that one. It's a tough pick though as I'd love SMS on Switch with a lick of paint - no pun intended.
As for Cappa's duo, I've not played either. From what I've seen of Madworld, it looked fine, but I suspect it garnered a lot of its attention from being a visually striking gory action game on Wii as opposed to being a world-class action title. I think I'll go for HotD simply because it comes across as being the more interesting title to me. Although, I'm not sure how they'd sort the shooting out on Switch with no dedicated pointer.
Here are my two:

I'd would have gone for Paper Mario TTYD as it's the best one and the Switch doesn't have any, sure Sunshine might be my fav 3D Mario the Switch does have Odyessy.
Then the next two hard choice, both SEGA, both Mature Wii games, but only Madworld is from Platinum.
Anyway on to Jay's games and I have played both and thought they were both disappointing but I think SFV has improved leaps and bounds since launch along with the art-style suits the Switch better.

Yes I remembered that after posting. Still, though. Catherine and its crazy sheep puzzling for me.

I think I might still prefer it without the 'pure arcade fun'. I'll be honest: arcade racers irritate me a bit. Why do you have to make it through all the checkpoints in time while the other cars don't? What have you done wrong to be cursed this way!?
Cappa:Madworld looks cool. Neither are really my sort of thing, but I can see myself picking up Madworld because of the striking visuals, if it was on offer at a bargain price and I was bored.
Jay: I'm going to guess that Tekken 7 wasn't ripped to shreds and shoved out piecemeal. Because they're not really my genres, I can choose based on ideology and go with that.
Mas: This is my genre! Both would be great, I think, but only one lets you fly around on dragons. So, that one.

I prefer RDR, so I'll go for that. I think it spins a better story than GTA V.

Witcher 3, always wanted to play it and Switch could use another sprawling rpg/adventure game.

@Balla sure it's not for the fan-service or waifu
On the games since, I would have gone RDR as I don't really like GTA or to be honest much of Rockstars work, I find them along with the likes of Bethesda to beheld highly but find almost nothing that interesting they do apart from that odd thing which in Rockstar case is Red Dead, which I think is down to the story.
Even though I think God of War (2018) is maybe of the best games of this generation, I would have gone Witcher 3 as well as from what I know that is also one of the best games of this gen and I see thronebreaker coming and playing as Geralt in SCVI makes me want to play in that world, but I'm daunted by the scope of game and finding the time to do so.
On Jas games, now I liked the look of PES this year (Smurf wasn't that kind about it on twitter) and I don't much of Fire Pro but #FucKonami so Fire Pro is my choice

The thing is PES always finds a way to improve the gameplay side of things each year but sadly the Master league and My club modes have barely changed in years and that's where most people will spend their time with the game and that's what I think smurf was getting at on twitter. Both games actually suffer from similar problems which is one reason why I chose them, their gameplay is top notch and have edit modes/communities that are phenomenally good and you'll have a lot of fun building your team or roster (for Fire pro) then playing friends locally with your fantasy match ups.
Other features like the career or online stop them from being true out and out classics.

J&J:
Jay: I'd much prefer playing Witcher 3, but I'm hearing more and more that even among the game industry, CD Projekt Red is a godawful place to work, and I'd feel guilty about supporting the studio. So, Dad of Boy (so original and witty) it is. The Sony fanboy panty-twisting would be glorious as well.
Jas: ...it's a coin flip really, I don't care much about either. Probably Pro Evo because I imagine more other people would like it, and because it would make EA look even worse. If that's a thing that can happen.
masofdas wrote:

I would make the most apologetic story choices possible.
Anyhoo! Another one where I don't care much, really. Probably Crash, I don't get the appeal for big fast cars at all. Not unless they can hover. Speaking of which!

I've not heard that about CD and I know I'm not one to talk with my boycotting of Konami but it does seem to be something that happens a lot in gaming, like even Nintendo and the factory conditions.

F-Zero GX is the answer there
Looking back at this a few of the games we wanted have now come to Switch and at the moment I'm playing Nier Automata, which I don't know just sort of feels it be sort at home on Switch. I'm not sure how it would run as base PS4 and Xboxes aren't too great.
However, I put the question to you Abort or A Port of these two?

It's definitely somebody else's go (people probably know my views on this one), but I'd be happy to see this game resurrected! I thought it was fun.

I own both on PS4 so I've no real horse in the race, but P5 would definitely work better on Switch and probably sell like gangbusters to boot.

That's the toughest one to choose yet, but Hogs of War is a truly special game. Port Hogs of War, have Worms Armageddon as a pre-order bonus or something.
