To be honest - the one thing that puts me totally off of this game is that I don't want to play as this guy - the art suggest you play a boy but ingame it looks like an old dude with a beard.

All great games there - I'd just love to have the Sonic game - This is one of my favorite portable sonic games, I like it more than all the Advance or DS ones!

For a "nostalgia remake" I find the "Pokemon let's go" style perfect - neither this fan concept nor the stuff from the direct.

The only thing from EA I'd like to see on Switch is the first Mirrors Edge

I really don't understand why they don't go with cloud-gaming for the demos.I'm not interested in it for normal play, but for events like this it seems a perfect fit.

I hope for a sale of Disjunction. It's not very expensive as it is, but I have such a huge backlog that I even hesitate on this prize.

I liked this game pretty much on the 3DS - but I just recently got "Catherine" for Switch and get pretty similar vibes from the puzzle and like it even more because it's so much faster. To be honest, I'd love a quick simple puzzle game with short loadtimes that is exactly like the Catherine puzzle.

Started Dead Cells for the first time through the trial. Can't put it down! So even though I played half way through Astral Chain just before it and enjoyed it pretty much, that one will have to wait a bit

@Desrever they made a lot of small "quality of life" improvements for the second one (to be honest: they should have made them as updates for the first - but they didn't!), like when there are some movements that the game doesn't register correctly you can check an option where these movements are always counted as "ok". (I let my kids play sometimes and they really got annoyed when their movements were mostly counted as misses - also for myself I had a lot of problems with some sidesteps and ducks to be counted properly).

I own both games and there are so many small improvements that I won't go back to the first one. I'd suggest you get the second game if you plan on sticking with it for some months!

Of all the new trainer we have... I would have loved if Nintendo made Samus available as a trainer! This would be so great!

I stopped playing the first one because it never recognized my side-steps and ducks and this was too frustrating. When I heared that you can set some moves to be always counted as "ok" I ordered the second one and play it since three days. Loving it very much so far!

I don't have much time left each day and was pretty active before my fitness-studio closed the doors due to Covid, so I try to get the most out of my playtime: when you do 10 pushups everytime the front-foot changes and play on the new "no mercy" mode it's a really intense workout for 20 - 30 min and worth your time!

I really love ghost story! I just got it again on ebay 1-2 months ago (played it on flashcard before) and am looking forward to playing it again!

I finally bought AstralChain and really enjoy it so far!

It's not just about the "event" where something specific things happen. You also didn't get any decoration, xmas trees and so on. Also after xmas the villagers complained that they didn't receive any gifts - although you couldn't give them any, which is an indicator that it wasn't thought through for new users.

I was really hyped and thought that this would be the first of the new "mini consoles" (nes, psx, genesis) that I would actually buy - until I found out that there are only 4 games in it

@Auenegheps thanks for this info! I planned on getting this game for me and my kids but already was afraid that it gets boring too soon. We have too many games that we started in coop but got bored of (lovers in a dangerous spacetime, Nine Parchments,...), don't need another

Zelda and Dark Souls? Looks like Diablo-influence to me...

StarLink really is worth it! I have the toys here, got a lot when they were cheap. At first I thought it would be only cool to play with Fox, but I ended up playing with the original characters the most because I liked them and their backstories and interactions a lot.

For me it's

• Ring Fit with my Kids
• Pac-Man in Coop (this mode is great!)
• Kings Bird (great and satisfying flow)
• Animal Crossing on 3DS (every family member has it, so we play at the same time and sometimes visit each other)

I had the first one on 3DS (Pac-Man and Galaga Dimensions) and loved it there. Because of the Coop Mode I got the Switch game on sale for 5€ and really enjoy playing it with my son! It is very challenging for us (he is young and I am bad) - but the game is really well thought up! They didn't just throw in a second player, they also changed a lot of the gameplay to "force" you to interact with each other. You get captured by ghost and the other has a short time to free you and the powerups have to be activated together. You destroy ghosts by squishing them from both sides simultaneously. We love it!

@SalvorHardin the EA way would sell you everything they removed back in pieces and completely break the balance of the game for players that dont pay for microtransactions again and again

I loved Revelations (3DS) and RE2 Remake (PC)!

@CurryPowderKeg79
"Steven Universe - Save the Light" on Switch is pretty good
Otherwise I can mostly agree.

@Heavyarms55
Unlike Fitness Boxing and things like EA Active (for Wii - actually a great fitness game) you don't need a lot of space. You basically need room to run in place, sit down with straight legs and bend to the side while standing. I was positively surprised by this. Also no uncontrolled jumping or sidesteps here.

Already got it and played a lot today, switching accounts with my 2 kids every 2 levels so we could progress it in parallel.

Great game, and when you bump up the difficulty, it really is a great workout, too! More on the cardio and interval side, so it could accompany a regular gym training perfectly.

At max intensity and difficulty each tiny enemy encounter takes two workouts with 20 reps each, which feels a little disproportioned, but otherwise the game does a great job to motivate you all the time!

I hated your review of Fitness Boxing where you just sat on the couch and wiggled the controllers. It didn‘t do any justice to the game (which I happen to like a lot). This time you made an effort, thanks.

I got **Untitled Goose Game** and had a lot of fun with my kids committing goose crimes

@scully1888 You are right. It just annoys me that so many review sites and magazines often don‘t even mention when games are frustrating and unplayable without doing additional microtransactions. Most reviewsites and alike are to afraid to loose a publishers goodwill that they don‘t point out the evil stuff. Take each years VideoGameAwards for example... celebrating predatory games and evil publishers without considering when games are designed to force you into continuous spendings and so on. Just to not upset the publishers. I am so sick of this :/

Why can‘t gaming sites just stop reporting news about bad, abusive predatory publishers alltogether? Yeah - you want all the clicks, but maybe not talking about EA at all and overly monetarized games and other evil publishers at all would help start a change for the better.

@Donutsavant
I should also try this... always buying new stuff without playing the previous purchases a lot.

For this month I only unlocked RingFit, because I played FitnessBoxing so much! Have to finish Steven Universe-Save the light before buying another RPG.

Splitscreen Minecraft with my kids and Sayonara Wild Hearts again

This is the first game after Pokemon Let‘s Go that I will preorder - Thank you Nintendo, please stay as you are!

I love this movie - it has an unexpected amount of story and lovable characters between all the advertisements! Have it on DVD already, looking forward to get it in HD

I would have loved something like this for Wii Fit! It was sad that you only could pick from some Minigames, but didn‘t have a real „game“ that motivated you through the exercises. Great to get this now! Definately an instant buy for me and my family!

Nice Idea! I already had a lot if time with EA-Active and Wii Fit on the Wii and Fitnessboxing on the Switch (in addition to traditional fitness), the Problem was always that these games are not very extreme to the muscles. But having a flexible ring to press against could really be great for beginners and experienced alike!

Don‘t be so against fitness games, they can be great fun and improve your coordonation and fitness quite a bit!
