If you're looking for the best single-player games that the Nintendo Switch has to offer, then you've come to the right place.

Let's rank the best single-player games on Switch right now, with the help of your votes.
When it comes to one-player games, all the great Nintendo franchises are here: Super Mario, Legend of Zelda, and Pokémon.
