Switch Reviews

I have a love-hate relationship with the Mario tennis franchise. I loved the first GameBoy Colour release, and have liked elements of almost all the releases ever since. What generally happens with each release is that I love the arcade like tennis matches, but less so the the wacky realities of the Mario Kingdom universe. With Mario Tennis Fever, I think those thoughts still persist, but I’ve been enjoying this romp at the courts more than previous entries! If there…

Once upon a time, a game called Dragon Quest  7 released on the PlayStation instead of the Nintendo 64. Dragon Quest games up until that point had been exclusive to Nintendo. Suddenly, Final Fantasy was Sony’s baby. Flashforward to now and Final Fantasy 7, the original, is available on Switch 1 and 2 and now Final Fantasy 7 Remake has arrived on Switch 2. Here’s our review! In Final Fantasy 7 Remake, the classic story of Cloud Stife, a mercenary…

Taxi Chaos 2 finally screeches onto PS5 after its earlier holiday drop on other platforms, promising bigger ideas and a brighter city to tear through. If you’ve been itching for arcade‑style sprints with wild shortcuts and tight timers, this sequel definitely tries to deliver.  San Valeda looks the part: bold colors, stacked layers, and routes that don’t stay put. One shift might be clear skies and open streets; the next throws up roadworks, restricted zones, or pea‑soup fog that forces…

The latest entry in the Octopath Traveler franchise is Octopath Traveler 0. Thanks to Square Enix we got to check out the game! Here is our review of Octopath Traveler 0 for the Nintendo Switch 2. In previous Octopath Traveler games, you picked one of several already made characters to play as to start and then could go back later and play one of the others.

The long running Assassin’s Creed series goes to Japan with the latest game and its also available on Nintendo’s newest platform, the Nintendo Switch 2. Is this game worth checking out the system? Here is our review of Assassin’s Creed Shadows for the Nintendo Switch 2! In Assassin’s Creed Shadows, you mainly play as Naoe, a ninja who is on a quest for revenge. Shadows main story is very good and so are the flashbacks that are sprinkled throughout the…

It’s been a long time since Metroid Prime 3 ended, a whopping 18 years. With the last Metroid Prime game launching in 2007, safe to say that fans have been anxiously waiting this release. Honestly, it felt like this week would never come, as Metroid Prime 4 went through a number of rollercoaster moments during it’s development cycle. Other Metroid games have released during this lull, but as someone who doesn’t particularly enjoy Metroid outside of the Prime series, it…

I’m always fairly open about games I don’t think I’ll have a lot of interest in, but I’ve always got my review partners by my side (my family). Even when I’m not necessarily super excited about something, generally others are, and that was the case for Kirby Air Riders. I understand the scope of the game and what is being provided to players, and I think it is incredibly impressive. But a racing game where you don’t have to accelerate?…

Here is our review of Dragon Quest 1 + 2 for Nintendo Switch. In Dragon Quest 1, you play as a hero related to the legendary hero Erdrick (from…
