Pretty much first-party Nintendo games and a handful of independent games. I had the same desires as you, so all I really had and played and liked was:
Animal Crossing
Tears of the Kingdom (Breath of the Wild was good but TOTK is basically the same game but 1000x better and after playing it I have no desire to go back to BOTW)
Super Mario Odyssey
Clubhouse Games
And if I had known it existed while I still had the thing, I would have gotten Switch Sports.
I hear ya, but I think that's why I'd like to try them both, in order. More game, without tarnishing the experience of the first.
I've never particularly cared for Mario, but in retrospect it's always felt somehow alien when I've tried playing them, like they all have this particular identity, and I'm not in its clique. Maybe I should actually sit down with one on my own and give it a solid try (rather than just sampling at someone else's place).
100% do both in order. Can't go backwards for both story and gameplay reasons.
Also, I think the matter of which game is better is pretty subjective. I loved BotW, but got bored of TotK less than halfway through.
Same, although to be fair I think the reason TotK got boring was because it was so similar to BotW. Both of them are incredible games but there's such a thing as too much of a good thing.
Perhaps for some people. In my case, I went back and played BotW again, and enjoyed the replay all the way through.
Def agree with doing botw first if you want to do both. Though I suspect you'll want a break in between the two. They're both extremely meaty games
