So yes, the game feels pretty solid and good, and if you own the original, I would definitely consider picking up the upgrade DLC from the Nintendo eShop—and if you haven’t played the original Forgotten Land before, now is the perfect time to do so.
Both are gems and the best Mario Party. So, pick which version you wish. After all, if you get the Switch 1 version, you can still always upgrade in the future for a small fee. So you have nothing to lose.
Nintendo hit it out of the park with this one, and I believe that any Switch 2 owner should get this game. You won’t regret it, I assure you. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have one more Banana to find to increase my strength and hours of gameplay to...
I despised platformers. But then I played Super Mario Wonder.
Even with these positives, however, it doesn’t feel like enough to really save the game and turn it into something special. While many gameplay issues could be changed in the future via patches, currently, the core gameplay experience just isn’t fun. All the ideas are there, but they aren’t executed...
Astral Chain
So yes, get Astral Chain and don’t sleep on it. It is one of the best games not only to come out this year for Nintendo Switch but also for the system in general. Prepare to get lost in the world for countless hours—especially in search of those pesky secrets...
Despite its minor shortcomings, the game still offers over 100s of hours of gameplay that can serve as an excellent way for the tactically minded players out there to get their strategy fix. Players are also rewarded for their time, and those that take advantage of everything on offer and...
It might not be the biggest Nintendo title this month (looking at you, Fire Emblem: Three Houses), but it is a gem that should definitely not be missed. We ourselves have pulled out the game and played through a chapter or completed a few Infinity Challenges over the past few...
Another issue stems from most of the game’s new features that we touched on before, such as an island to build on freely and multiplayer, take a while to unlock. You have to finish the first chapter of the game before both these options unlock, which means it could take...
Super Mario Maker 2
Super Mario Maker 2 is one of the Switch’s current outstanding games and a must for any Switch owner. It’s fun, creative, and above all offers hours of entertainment. The addition of the Story Mode, two player mode, additional creation tools, and the ability to set new course-clearing objectives are...
Yoshi's Crafted World
Overall, Yoshi’s Crafted World is just another great title to be added to the Switch’s already-impressive library. It’s sure to appease fans looking for new games before Christmas when heavy hitters like the new Pokémon game and Animal Crossing come out, and it definitely shouldn’t be missed.
Wargroove
If Wargroove sells well, and it should, then Chucklefish should have a case with Nintendo to make the next real installment in the Wars series. The studio has already proven that it’s up to the task with its spiritual successor, and fans will surely be eager to see what the...
