That’s the one I’m most excited for. Can’t wait…

Heheh; I never saw the ending of that last clip until now. Kirby’s freaking adorable.

@Anti-Matter

I understand what you’re saying but this game has really surprised me; it’s incredibly addicting and one of the funnest online experiences I’ve had in a while. They’ve got some wrinkles to work out regarding matchmaking and a couple of other things but ultimately, this has been my go-to game since it came out. Incredibly fun and super-tight gameplay. I suspect it will only get better which means it’ll be a must have for every Switch owner.

@DomGC

I played the original on the ds like crazy. Must’ve put in at least a hundred hours. What made that game so amazing was the tactile sensation of using the stylus to evoke all your pins’ powers. Certain pins required quickly drawing a zig-zag symbol while others were circles (some were as simple as drawing a straight line or tapping). Regardless, it worked and played flawlessly and was truly unique. You felt like a bad-ass Harry Potter in a way since you were casting all these different “spells.” Taking that away from the combat I felt would be an issue. The demo proved that to me. Not to sound negative, but there’s no way this follow up will capture the magic of the first.

@lighteningbolt79

Why are you criticizing people for criticizing a game (especially without fully understanding the reason for their thoughts)? They know as much about the game as you know about them (more, even) and that’s not stopping you from making opinions about them. Sorry, I’m just not a fan of hypocrisy. And yes, fun isn’t the only factor when you’re talking about $60. I have fun with Pac-Man but I’m not paying $60 for it.

@lighteningbolt79

Likewise.

@lighteningbolt79

That’s because their comments reflect their own opinions, just like the article does. You seem to be taking this very personally. What makes people happy? Whatever makes THEM happy.

@lighteningbolt79

Am I not allowed to have my own opinion? I consider it mediocre. You apparently don’t. Great. Because the review says it’s good means I need to think that as well? And yes, if I enjoy the hell out of something, of course I’d want more of it. I’d love to see a return to that type of game especially since I haven’t played anything like it in years.

I just don’t understand why they don’t go back to that winning formula they had with Camelot with their golf outing on the Advance (can’t remember the exact name). That was the most fun I ever had with a golfing game. If they made a modern version of that for Switch with online play, I guarantee it would’ve sold like hot cakes. This is just a weird direction and very unusual for Nintendo to put out such a mediocre title.

When’s the E3 presentation?

Probably a disgruntled Knockout City player tired of being frozen on the loading screen. Admittedly, the game’s as addictive as crack.

@Clyde_Radcliffe

I should’ve described Heavy Burger’s premise, which is one of the coolest things about it: There are two rows of arcade cabinets facing each other. Both rows lead to one arcade cabinet, which is your goal. You play within the games themselves, obviously, and have to carry a money bag all the way to the “goal cabinet.” So, basically, each arcade cabinet is like a level in which a game is playing but you’re there against the cpu (and possibly a human player) twin-stick shooting each other trying to carry the money bag to the next cabinet while crazy action from the game you’re in causes mayhem. Once you get to the final cabinet, take the money bag to the bank and you win. If your opponent grabs the bag before you can make it to the bank, he’s gotta go through all the cabinets and take it to his bank. It’s intense back and forth, trying to get the bag to the bank. The game controls perfectly and has a great style to it and is only eight bucks.

I hope it’s not some kind of security breach with the eshop. P.s. It’s really obnoxious that they haven’t given us the ability to customize our Switchs’ home screens. It would be so simple on their end and if they had their finger on our pulse, they’d know this is second to a Switch Pro.

@blockfight

Agreed!

@SoapMonkey

Well said!

@SoapMonkey

Agreed. I haven’t bought an EA game in a long time but it’s only because none have really appealed to me. I have an idea why the company is disliked, though. Bottom line, I downloaded the trial and it’s a blast. It feels fantastic to play, it’s great fun, and I’ve had no performance issues (except for one crash when starting up). It’s fun to the point that I’ll almost certainly buy it, but comments here are scaring me that they’ll be no one playing when the trial is over or that the game will be somehow ruined. That would be upsetting since this is a multiplayer game.

Hades is probably the most recent to break into or get close to my top five (even though I don’t really know what my top five are).

We’ll know about the CIA’s ufo dealings way before this is released. Literally.

I usually jump all over anything Devolver does but this looks…questionable.

Easily one of my favorite games in all the eshop. A true gem.

@HotGoomba

Is that a positive or negative thing?

@60frames-please

I’ve been spreading the word about this: a unique and awesome twin-stick shooter that no one seems to knows about…Heavy Burger. I’m a huge shooter fan, and Heavy Burger is one of my favorites along with Bezier, Funtime, Ruiner and Enter the Gungeon. It’s inexpensive too. I should let the editors know about this too.

I just read that a physical copy of this game sells for around $2,000 on eBay! Crazy. Has anyone ever played this? Any impressions?

I wonder what the “insane price” will be…

Phew, for a minute there…

@DomGC

Thank you!

@Phoenyx_Up

Rolling Thunder?

Downloaded and started. Wish I could just take on the new monsters in hub quests but that option apparently isn’t immediate. I’m kinda confused what to do next. I’d like to hunt that chameleon thingy…

P.s. I’m at HR 7 (or 8).

Can’t wait for updates on this game (new armor, weapons, monsters...). I’d also really, really love new biomes.

@dont_simp_for_them
Yes, it’s worth it. I’m a big fan of Dead Cells and this is similar yet different enough to be its own thing. It’s one of the better roguelites I’ve played.

“Could turn into a good game”? That doesn’t sound promising. I’ll bite, though, if it ends up with good reviews on Steam later in development. Looks fantastic and the premise is awesome.

Now it’s downloading. Finally!

It’s out now but it’s just sitting on my home menu...not downloading for some reason.

It’s gonna take forever to download so I keep checking. I started getting annoyed after the 15th time.

Freaking drop already! How are you gonna tell people on the eshop that it’s coming out on the 9th and don’t release it until it’s nearly the 10th. Frustrating and stupid.

@MarioBrickLayer Do it and thank us later!

Kid Icarus Uprising is one of my all-time favorite games and I’ve been playing since the early ‘80s. On 3DS, the 3D effect was amazing. Everything, in fact, was amazing and I never understood how they fit so much game into that cartridge. I did, however, often wish that instead of using a stylus, I could just have another thumbstick. Yes, the stylus made for some precise shooting, but you had to be holding the 3DS in a very specific and somewhat uncomfortable way that could be tolerated for only so long. On the Switch, with two sticks, this wouldn’t be an issue. It’d be perfect and play just like all other 3rd-person shooters (which is why someone’s earlier comment makes no sense about only being able to play this properly on 3DS. If that were true, no 3rd-person shooter could be played properly on modern consoles). This is the one game from 3DS that needs to be on Switch and it’s amazing to me that they haven’t ported this masterpiece yet. Let’s start a petition!!!

@MarioBrickLayer

I buy a lot of games. I’m also very picky with my games (they usually need to be reviewed very well and have longevity). I also love retro and shmup games. Huntdown is one of the best games I’ve played in a long time. It’s amazing in every respect and is woefully underrated and/or underplayed. Don’t think twice and buy it. You’ll thank me. More people need to know about this game.

@Boxmonkey
I don’t remember Blockbuster selling consoles. That’s nuts!

This and Rebel Galaxy Outlaw are all I want this month. I got Hades day one. Transistor is one of my all-time favorite games and I see myself playing this more due to the nature of the game. Hades is glorious. The reviewer said it all. This is a must have. Supergiant, you’re one of my heroes.

Do we have a release date? I’m on these like flies on poop.

Did I miss the release date somewhere?

@Not_Soos Brilliant!

Guys, Hades is glorious. Supergiant is legendary. I can’t believe I have to stop to go to work.

Thanks for the heads up, guys!

@imgrowinglegs What?!?! Please don’t play with me...

I was all kinds of excited when I saw Hades in last week’s new releases. But Hades never showed. A couple of people mentioned it was coming out on the 16th of September and I blindly believed it. Still nothing. I was really, really hoping it’d be out today, but nothing. Cruel to tinker with one’s heart like this.
