I think we’ve created a five-episode journey that will open up the world of video games and this legendary company in a way that most people have never seen.” [widget path="global/article/imagegallery" parameters="albumSlug=the-top-25-switch-games-fall-2020-update&captions=true"] 2021 appears to be continuing the trend of video game documentaries, and follows 2020's example that had such hits as Netflix's High Score and CBS All Access' Console Wars.
