Jackbox 3 is great for larger groups
Snipperclips, Metal slug, Overcooked are great for 2-4 players

Loading times in overcooked are real bad and the frame rate isn't amazing but the game is so good that you can give it a pass. It's an amazing game to make everyone hate each other
Puyo puyo is also amazing
Puyo puyo is also amazing
TBH I'm normally pretty sensitive to low framerates, but here its not too bad (esp once they patched it)
The main weird thing about the port is you only have 8 directional movement. No idea why.
Bomberman main singleplayer can be played with 2 players. Also it is bomberman =P
And accepts up to 6 or 8 players on deathmatch
Thanks! Ill buy it when I have the money. Thanks for the tip about moon hunters. Is there another way than creating new profiles to use other eshops?
What if i buy a game and then change the country of the account, do I lose the game or just the funds?

I can recommend some things if you tell me what type of games you're into. Overcooked and Snipperclips are both fun.
Turn of your switch, go here and change your contry

Buy it with credit card "just the necessary funds" and go back to your original country.
You don't loose anything changing country, most games you can even delete and redownload in your own region (i don't know why would you do that), but the funds stay in the country you bought them.
Also here is a site that tells the price of the game in other countries

Perhaps you should try out Spelunker Party. There is a demo of it on the eshop. I do believe it's 30 dollars rather than 20 though.
The following games have co-op are all great IMO:
Overcooked! (essential co-op)
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime (I saw that you already got this, and it's an excellent game)
Snipperclips (there's a new version coming soon, that will be available as DLC to the old version)
Death Squared
NeuroVoider
Picross S (I have only played this one single player myself, but it seems like the co-op is to solve the puzzles together)
These two games are vs. but might fit your description. Bot games have single player campaigns as well and both are really excellent:
Tumblestone (don't miss this gem)
Puyo-Puyo Tetris
I quote for Astro Duel Deluxe. At first it looked like a pretty barebones experience, which in a way it is, but damn if it works. it's one of the most successful Switch games among my circle of friends, it's pure arcadey multiplayer goodness and among the ones that cause the biggest laughters. It is pretty cheap too, so if you need a simple game, easy to pick up and play for anyone, defenitely check this one out.
it's pretty much multiplayer Asteroids, but with multiple stages, power-ups and modes.
Thanks bought moon hunters, and already have the puyo tetris.
Isnt Tumblestone like a puzzle like tetris? Maybe the graphics mislead me.
Ill add Deathsquared, neurovoider, overcooked and snipperclips to the list of future buys.
Thanks all of you!

It's a match-three puzzle game, but visually it looks a bit like Tetris. If you play the single campaign, you'll unlock special block types that will extend the variations of the gameplay quite a bit.
I agree. For fairly skilled gaming friends, it's a perfect vs game.
I'd also suggest a look at the fairly newly added 2-player vs. mode in Tumbleseed. Very fun IMO.
Bomberman isn't less than $ 20 though, in fact, it is way more expensive.
I bought it and the story mode doesn't seem to be worth it after finishing the first world. Planned to play it with my wife myself as well as the typical Bomberman MP sessions.
Putty Pals is also a fun co-op platformer and reminiscent of Ibb and Obb. You need to work together. Use each other as bounce pads, stretch out your hand to grab your friend and sling each other across surfaces etc. I played through the first world with somebody else and I had a great time doing it. We will probably continue our journey this week. It's the kind of co-op that I enjoy the most. True teamwork. Not just running through the game together.
I almost didn't buy it because the graphics made it look like a cheap cash-in. Glad I bit the bullet though.
My other recommendations are already included in this topic. Both Snipperclips (expanded version soon!) and Death Squared are great fun with others.

I love playing Puyo Puyo Tetris, SnipperClips and Mario Kart with my wife. You could say Puyo Puyo might be a bit pricey, but the countless hours we've put on it made it worth that money.
Overcooked is easily the best couch coop game for Switch, my GF and I have a blast everytime we play. I'd recommend grabbing Picross S as well, it's really cheap and you can do the puzzles together and even compete with each other to see who color more tiles
Also, regarding platformers, the best option is Shovel Knight. It's a bit more expensive but it's one of the best platformers out there
For budget-priced online games, Fast RMX is the title that comes to mind.
And perhaps also Flip Wars with the latest update, but I still feel that the content in that game is too low.
Puyo-Puyo Tetris also have online between friends.
World of Goo is also a good pick up if you haven't played it yet (or even if you have way back, it's worth revisiting). You can play it in co-op with motion controls.
I have the game (haven't played it for a couple of months), but didn't realize that it had co-op. Need to try that. I will get Putty Pals on your recommendation as well now.
Loved Moon Hunters on PC, just bought it on Switch actually.
Great Action game with a huge emphasis on narrative side of the game.
Plenty of possible playthroughs and up to 4 players at the same time on screen.
