Mario & Luigi Brothership is a welcome return, and succeeds far more than it fails. Its heartwarming story mixed with solid battle mechanics will keep you engaged for some time…even if it goes a bit long in the tooth near the end.
Super Mario Party Jamboree continues the great trend that the past two Switch titles in the series started, and the new modes help make it stand out from the rest. It’s not perfect, but there are plenty of ways to kill time and have fun with friends or online rivals while you play.
The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom is a triumph of both style and storytelling. Princess Zelda feels like a true protagonist and doesn’t simply “take Link’s place” in the adventure. The creativity of the “Echoes” system is wonderfully done for the most part, and most will definitely want a new adventure of this nature in the future.
The Ace Attorney Investigations Collection may not hold up like the rest of the Ace Attorney saga, but there’s enough for long-time fans and newcomers to enjoy.
Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door is everything you wanted it to be on Nintendo Switch and more. Numerous quality-of-life improvements and additions help make the game both more fun and accessible to gamers of all generations.
Splatoon 3 Sider Order dares to do something different, but it comes at a cost. While some will enjoy the Roguelike characteristics of the game, others might be put off by how “light” they really are and the frustration that sometimes comes from it.
The Apollo Justice Ace Attorney Trilogy is a welcome remastering of classic titles. The graphics will make them feel more “modern,” while the cases will eat up your time as you figure out the truth. Not everything is as refined as it should be, but this is something you won’t want to miss out if you’re an Ace Attorney fan!
Persona 3 Reload is everything fans of the franchise want from a remake and more. It doesn’t change the story, but it does build upon the various gameplay elements that have become staples in the games that came after. Plus, the story and characters are incredible, and you’ll love getting to know them more.
Super Mario Bros Wonder is the big leap that 2D Mario platformers needed. The updated visuals, the Wonder Flower levels, the improved level designs, the variety of new monsters, all of it lends to a great experience that will leave you screaming, “WONDERFUL!!!”
The Legend of Zelda Tears of the Kingdom is a near-perfect title with everything feeling fresh, fun, and new. Even the places you’ve been too before have been reborn in some ways. You’ll spend dozens of hours in the game without breaking a sweat and love pretty much all of it.
