I have both but Xbox is the better choice because of gamepass in my opinion. Lots of games and a rotating library to keep it fresh. With that said, the PS4 with VR is amazing and you can get a psvr setup for cheap.

I’m gunna be the first person to tell you this. The value of game pass to you could be totally different value to someone else. If you work 50 hours a week and can only game for 2 hours on the weekend game pass definitely isn’t worth it but if you can try a new game ever week then game pass is very much worth it

Fire Emblem Three Houses is a lot of bang for your buck. Sort of anime wartime Harry Potter with multiple routes. Phenomenal game.

Fire Emblem Engage coming out next month.

Surprise hit Mario and Rabbids Kingdom Battle, often on sale for $20, plus the sequel just came out a couple of months ago to great reviews, Sparks of Hope.

Triangle Strategy is a gorgeous looking game that is apparently a return to form from Square Enix to strategy games of old.

Tactics Ogre Reborn is literally a Square Enix strategy game of old, remade with a lot of under the hood improvements as well as voice acting.

Diofield Chronicle was the 3rd Square Enix tactical game to release this year but I think it's more real time.

XCOM 2 collection is on Switch!

So is Civ 6.

Into the Breach is a fantastic indie tactical game with smaller levels where you know the enemy's next moves.

Wargroove is an indie love letter to Advance Wars but in a fantasy setting

Speaking about Advance Wars, the 1+2 Remake is sure to come out any day now ... right?? The Ukraine war has sadly delayed the game indefinitely.

I'm sure I'm missing more. I think you'll have better luck asking the /r/NintendoSwitch subreddit for Switch recommendations.

Nintendo has a lot of exclusives that are very good (Splatoon, Mario, Zelda, Pokemon). Also their consoles are really good, even the older ones (take the DS/DSi/3DS for example). The only bad console that Nintendo has made has been the Wii U, and it wasn’t even a bad console, it just didn’t sell well. I also feel that nintendos way of promoting indie games has lead to a thriving indie community on the Switch which means there’s a vast amount of games that other consoles just don’t have. So that’s why I think Nintendo is best.
