7 / 10 - Strikers 1945
Oct 8, 2017

STRIKERS1945 delivers a mid-1990s retro experience thanks to its vertical shoot'em up structure. It's a game that does its job well and despite the lack of a strong long term appeal, it allows for a good experience that anyone who enjoys retro-style shoot'em ups will appreciate.

FIFA 18 on the Switch brings the series back to Nintendo and with this delivery, it achieves some accolades while leaving stones unturned. If the gameplay is perfectly fluid and playing FIFA on the go is a very welcome feature, it also suffers from several technical limitations which put it one step behind other versions of the game. Harder to understand is the absence of online play against friends and of other functionalities found in other deliveries of FIFA 18.

Piczle Lines DX has its flaws but it's still a decent and fun puzzle game. While more game modes and some multiplayer possibilities could be expected given its price, this mixture of Picross with Sudoku has a challenging and fun concept and it knows how to use the capabilities of the Nintendo Switch.

Fire Emblem Warriors on the New Nintendo 3DS attempts to recreate the experience that can be found on the Nintendo Switch and while its main objectives are fulfilled, there are several elements which inevitably fell behind. The lack of a cooperative mode is difficult to understand and technically, there are many details that feel very much downgraded. While overall the experience is mostly the same, these differences shouldn't be entirely ruled out when it comes to making a decision.

The first season of Minecraft: Story Mode is simple but interesting. Fans of Minecraft will be captivated and even those not into the series will like it. While the gameplay feels a bit passive and there are occasional breaks in the fluidity of the game, the experience is quite pleasant and the excellent performance of the voice actors adds an additional dimension to its qualities.

While the experience is mostly transported to the Switch, it should be said that it doesn't fully live up to the original but it can still be a fun game. That being said, a mistake that leads to enormous loading times can seriously harm the experience and the game's price is too high for what is included in this version.

6 / 10 - Sparkle 2 EVO
Nov 15, 2017

It's at relaxing while advancing along the evolutionary scale that Sparkle 2 EVO performs best, thanks to its simple design and to the implementation of the game's evolution and survival concepts. As a more competitive piece of gaming, it does less good as the matching mode is a bit of a disappointment and the game's actions often feel inconsequential to the player.

Skyrim comes to the Nintendo Switch in a package that brings not just what featured in the original release but also some additional content, not to mention the added advantage of playing it on the go in any possible location. While the game is starting to show its age, the version brought to the Nintendo Switch performs very well and like the original, it's certain to keep its players in front of the screen, big or small, for over one hundred hours of exploration.

8 / 10 - Chess Ultra
Nov 17, 2017

A videogame based on chess requires some particular assets to stand out and Chess Ultra on the Nintendo Switch fulfills all the requests in ways that make it a very welcome addition to the system's catalog. Thanks to its impressive variety of game modes, its choice of difficulty levels that are very suitable to all sorts of players and a high quality audiovisual component, Chess Ultra is an outstanding game that should be on everyone's radar.

8 / 10 - Lumo
Dec 2, 2017

Lumo brings back the isometric platform genre in an experience that fits right into the Nintendo Switch catalog. Thanks to its well implemented difficulty curve and to the immense amount of references to retrogaming classics, Lumo is certain to gain a place in the heart of many players, even if its fixed camera may occasionally cause some issues but overall, this is a pleasant and praiseworthy game for all.

7 / 10 - Time Recoil
Dec 4, 2017

Time Recoil reveals it in its title - the game introduces a time mechanic that makes this an interesting and successful piece of work. With fun action and short, quick missions that make this a game well suited for portable, fast gaming moments, with only its too simplistic graphics and less interesting plot standing in the way of a more fulfilling experience.

6 / 10 - Crimsonland
Dec 6, 2017

Crimsonland is plentiful in action, weapons and all sorts of bonuses and additional elements that will keep its players amused, especially if there are four of them. What it does less well is its level design, which feels repetitive and it lacks something innovative that would let it stand out.

Aqua Moto Racing Utopia doesn't need to be a groundbreaking game to stand out, given the lack of similar games in the Nintendo Switch catalog. Yet, despite some welcome variety of vehicles and racing tracks, it's clear that this game is not up to the challenge. Its controls need to be reworked, the AI is not on a proper challenging level and it's clear from the outset that this was developed for mobile devices.

Snow Moto Racing Freedom is unique but not breathtaking. While it's positive to have a game on the Nintendo Switch that stands alone in its genre, the technical issues and unrefined gameplay that affect Snow Moto Racing Freedom make it very difficult to recommend.

7 / 10 - Star Ghost
Dec 10, 2017

This new and welcome addition to the Nintendo Switch catalogue is simple yet demanding, with plenty of details to appreciate, such as its signature soundtrack and will be very much well received by shoot'em up fans.

This game was designed especially for that, as its fun chaos and bedlam take over the screen and even if more varied enemies would be welcome, Tennis in the Face is not a proposal to be overlooked.

Featuring an immense amount of content, a fun and challenging driving mechanic and lots of visual appeal, this game will certainly find its place in the Nintendo Switch catalog, despite a feeling of mid-term repetitiveness and the need to return to previous tracks to obtain more credits.

L.A. Noire on the Nintendo Switch looks and plays as good as the original did, featuring the same stunning actor performances and facial animations of the original, as well as its compelling plot and involving film noir atmosphere. Not all is perfect in this conversion and if the original game already featured a somewhat empty world, the Nintendo Switch version does not add anything groundbreaking to the original.

8 / 10 - Pinball FX3
Jan 2, 2018

Pinball FX3 is a varied, fun and overall rewarding pinball game that makes its way to the Nintendo Switch. Featuring an immense variety of tables that encompass many known series from the worlds of games and film, Pinball FX3 further brings a vertical view that allows the players to have a full vision of the table. All these elements add up to make a very fun and addicting game on the Nintendo Switch catalog.

Embers of Mirrim is a platformer of its own kind with puzzle elements and which makes a very original use of the two analog sticks that are part of the Nintendo Switch control scheme. It may have its frustrating elements but the game's benefits largely outweigh its shortcomings and is a very recommended game for fans of platform games who also enjoy a puzzle component.
