So Mighty Switch Force: Hyper Drive Edition doesn’t go as far as it could have gone in remastering the 3DS original, but the changes that are present here are superb – veterans will love the challenge of the new Hyper levels, and the quality of the high-definition art is so...
Code of Princess is a game that I'd love to like more than I do, as it isn't often we get new designs that call back to classic, pioneering genre hybrids like Guardian Heroes. Beyond the winning localization and expert voice acting, though, playing through this adventure just felt lacking...
Having never played this specific Bionic Commando game myself prior to this 3DS re-release, I've got to admit to being pleasantly surprised by how much is here for your investment of four bucks. The style and amount of content here rivals other great Game Boy games from Capcom in the...
F1 2011
F1 experts have probably already been racing their way through the home console versions of this title since September. With the 3DS version's odd A.I., it's hard to recommend that Formula fans give this edition a go. Codemasters knows racing -- but when they pass off portable development to other...
WWE All Stars was a good wrestling game when it first shipped to stores this past Spring. Not a great one -- since it had a few issues holding it back -- but still a good one, with a fun premise of making the past and present of the WWE...
At the very least you should test the waters of Bloons TD through one of the free versions, to use them as demos for this download – and if you absolutely love what you see in your Internet browser and know for sure that you want that same kind of...
The Bridge
But Bridge makes a much bumpier transition into digital form here, so I'd recommend saving the five bucks this time and putting them toward some fresh physical decks instead – then you can play the game as it was meant to be played. At your grandma's house, with her and...
Donkey Kong
The one depressing, discouraging caveat, though, is that disappointing lack of Super Game Boy color. It saddens me that such a pivotal part of the game's presentation has been cut away in this re-release, and upsets me even more to think that this most likely means no future eShop re-releases...
There will still be more Virtual Console titles released after this. The Wii's service isn't over quite yet. But we're just days away from the launch of the Nintendo 3DS eShop and its new, second-edition version of the VC concept. So here, with this re-release of a title still rightly...
Developer Red Fly Studio is known to the Nintendo faithful already as the force behind the solid action experiences of Mushroom Men: The Spore Wars and the Wii edition of Ghostbusters: The Video Game. With Star Wars: The Force Unleashed II, the company's designers were once again handed the responsibility...
Our own Levi Buchanan ran a whole series of insightful articles called "What Hath Sonic Wrought?" around a year and a half ago over on IGN's Retro channel, diving into all of the different animals-with-attitude characters that popped up in the wake of Sonic the Hedgehog's early '90s success. Aero...
You've seen this kind of game millions of times before on Wii -- a tossed-together collection of various sporting activities reimagined to work with the motion controls of the Wii Remote, but the controls are rough, the graphics are worse and the presentation is just painful to try to trudge...
