Does the Switch have any exclusively-online games? That’s a genuine question that I’m interested in for comparison purposes.
I think it’s a load of shit that any single-player experience requires an internet connection. I still know people with shoddy enough connections that they can’t play games like Diablo 4 on their desktop pc. However, I don’t think that it should disqualify a game from being Verified.
That’s a question that occurred to me during this discussion too. Please ping me if you’d get an answer. I’m not a Nintendo person, so I’m not sure where to even start researching that.
Kingdom hearts cloud version for the switch comes to mind, however considering “Cloud Version” is literally in the name I feel like you should expect it to need online.
A niche issue, but if you have two switches utilizing the same account, the second switch needs internet connection to ping/verify to make sure that your account isn’t being played on more than one switch at the same time. This occurs when initially loading any game on the second switch regardless if the game itself is an online game and allegedly every few hours after that.

Yes, but only cloud streaming titles (of which there aren’t many) and the also (few) online-only competitive shooters and MMOs.
There are no Switch games that run locally that lock single player away if you’re not connected.
