A little harsh, it's an excellent game and very addicting, but valid point about the obtuse puzzle design choices - I needed to watch a YT vid more than once to find a way of progressing through quests. Everything else is outstanding (the game is so fun you don't notice the graphics).
It's worse than the legacy Fifa games on Switch - it's 30fps and everything is slow motion. Annoying as it has all the whistles and bells but the base game isn't as good.
Can any of you good folks tell me - will Nintendo ever change or remove the patterned borders for online games, or give an option for larger screen sizes. I absolutely hate the borders - from memory they weren't a thing on the Wii U or Wii...?
@Chris77 Thanks dude I'm ordering one this weekend - literally just for sensible soccer, speedball 2 and Chaos Engine. Picked up the A500 mini a couple of weeks ago and plugged into a crt tv so the Amiga games same look as when I was a kid. Thanks for the info - how is the dpad on the Evercade is it good enough for the games you have played on it?
@Chris77 Best football game ever by a mile! Going to sound dumb - I don't have an evercade can you play handheld? If so I'd buy one just to play sensi handheld!
@OorWullie Not sure how much time I've put into Sturmwind, it's decent only problem is the backgrounds occasionally blend into foreground because of the brighter 2000's colours / Euro graphics. I'm debating getting either Deathsmiles or the new Cotton game for this weekend!
@OorWullie Agreed I pretty much have all the top tier shmups on Switch and Eschatos has gone straight in to my top 3 faves it's a very satisfying game!
@Dethmunk Totally agree, UI put me of buying this - it's just Lazy. I get put off playing games even if the font type isn't in sync with the games intended aesthetic.

Re: Review: The Legend Of Heroes: Trails Through Daybreak (Switch) - A Strong Entry With Some Confusing Quirks
Disappointing about the text size. Hard pass if I can't play hand held which is what majority use the Switch for.

Re: Review: EA Sports FC 24 - The Best Football Game On Any Nintendo System, Finally
@Patendo I still play on my Amiga 500 with my Quickshot Joystick - it's the gentlemanly way to play! For me it's a top 10 video game of all time.

Re: Round Up: The Reviews Are In For LEGO 2K Drive
Shame as I would have bought it. But MT on kid's game (I know not just for kids)...Nah that isn't right.
Re: Review: Castle Of Shikigami 2 - A Fine Version Of The Best Game In The Bullet-Hell Trilogy
Slightly overpriced, but it's a quality game and a bit of a cult classic. Hope it runs well, but I'm buying in any event!

Re: Review: Bayonetta Origins: Cereza And The Lost Demon - A Placid Prequel For Platinum's Star
Played the demo, bored me into submission after about 15 mins. Totally over-priced.
Re: Octopath Traveler Has Now Sold Over 3 Million Units Physically And Digitally
Looks nice but I don't think I've ever been so bored playing a game!
