Easily playable/accessible games for the Nintendo switch suggestions. (self.Blind)
submitted by [deleted]
For my fellow blind gamers out there do any of you have any suggestions for some good games available for the switch that are either very accessible or just so happen to be easy to play when blind? Because of course a lot of Pokémon games are pretty easy the hardest part it’s just the walking around and as of right now my two most played games on my switch are super smash bro‘s ultimate and let’s go Pikachu and I’ve been thinking about wanting to play a fire emblem game, animal Crossing new horizons, or Pokémon sword/shield but I just don’t know if any of those options are very accessible and worth spending the money on so I was wondering if anyone knew of some good suggestions.

"1-2-Switch" is very accessible and is a fun party game. It has a bunch of mini-games that rely on vibration patterns or controller movement rather than anything visual on the screen.

Yeah, fighting games are good.

Pokken tournament is accessible, it's a real time fighting game in the pokémon series.

There is also a discord community for mainstream gaming for the blind and visualy impared. You can check that out here: $1

Other games you can try out are Mortal kombat 11, mario kart 8 DX and dragon ball fighterZ. That's a lot of fighting games though.

True it is a lot of fighting games but the good thing is that I like them

It’s not out yet but I myself am keeping a look on it there’s a game called lost in hound that is a game meant to be playable by both excited and blind players and I do recall seeing that when it does come out it will be available for the Nintendo switch

I have Pokémon sword, it is reasonably difficult to navigate on the map likewise to other Pokémon games. A lot of the Pokémon will chase you in the grasses, for example. I usually find playing on the switch way easier when connected to the TV.

I know you didn't mention and possibly know already, but Minecraft has narrator which is offered to launch as soon as you play which is so good! Plus, you can play on peaceful or creator mode and have a really chilled out gameplay.

51 Worldwide Games is pretty good too! It's various classic board & card games. Most games are quite accessible for people with low vision.

Yeah when playing let’s go Pikachu again I’m only found the hardest parts just to be navigating the region but otherwise the battles were easy enough with the zoom feature and just remembering where I put which Pokémon and which moves to use
