Best Platformer of 2020

VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Take a look at our shortlist of top-tier 2020 platformers and you'll notice a remarkably even distribution among the so-called "big three": Nintendo, Sony, and Microsoft. Nintendo threw the industry a curve-ball with Super Mario Bros. 35, an addictive battle royale platformer; Sony introduced the world to its new controller DualSense via the nostalgic Astro's Playroom; and Microsoft published the gorgeous Ori and the Will of the Wisps, part dastardly platformer, part backtracking adventure.

I’m sure Ori and the Will of the Wisp is a great game but I’d have to give my win to Astro’s Playroom. Super Mario 35 is also tons of fun and addicting, all are great games in the end.

I always put Ori into the Metroidvania category.

From what I’ve heard the sequel isn’t on par with the first game. Haven’t played it myself.

From what I’ve played, the sequel is even better than the first game. Played both of them.

Nsane numbers. Can we not get a current patch for the trilogy and CTR 60fps and/or 4K? And might as well release a PC port for NF while you're at it, make it happen!

It was the other day I was thinking of picking up crash team racing because I like kart racers like Mario kart and Team Sonic Racing, but I was shocked to find out that Crash team racing is still 30 fps.
