This or Switch version?

This is not true. The game is coming to Switch in English too: https://www.nintendo.com/games/detail/spelunker-party-switch
Physical copies are limited to Japan/Japanese language.

As far as I can tell the only difference for the Switch version is the portability, otherwise they should be identical - both versions even have local multiplayer, though it's probably more convenient on the Switch.
The only other thing is that the free wallpaper is exclusive to the PC version.
Edit: Oh, and Steam-specific stuff like achievements and trading cards, of course.

i played the demo of this on the switch and hated it. one of the worst games i've ever played you can literally die by jumping 1 foot off a rope!

That's the point of it... the game is set to be brutal hard and you can die from literally anything.

Just bought the Switch version. Seems to have come out a couple hours earlier.

You must be new to Spelunker. Dying so easily is just part of the game's appeal.

Swtich and PC version are identical other than the PC version having settings for PC, which are unnecessary on Switch (from what I can tell on Youtube - I only have the Switch version).

This is the PS3? version that was released on Japan (I think, need confirmation) but that version had a cash shop that was completely removed and the game was reworked a little to make it a valid experience without the need for microtransactions.

But the PC and Switch versions should be identical.

I baught it on switch. It's enjoyable but not many people play. Given that switch is gonna be pay to play online. I'm thinking steam is your way to go...
Given the amount of communication u need. I'd consider land as the best way anyway
