Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs - Royal Edition has an involving plot with plenty of humour that will keep the players well entertained. It doesn't fully live up to its potential when it comes to the combat system, which is far from accessible, and its loading times are way too long, which maks this a game that will not find its place next to everyone.

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate comes out on top no matter what angle is used to look at it. A game that improves on nearly every single aspect of the series, it delivers on everything it proposes and on incredible levels, making this the best chapter made so far on this iconic Nintendo work which more than a game series, is a tribute to the world of gaming.

Guacamelee! Super Turbo Championship Edition is a humour-ridden Metroidvania-style game that features a charming and fun plot, good character development and a marvelous visual environment. This experience looks certain to make everyone's days better and deserves to be given a chance beyond its core target audience.

Bastion on the Nintendo Switch brings back a successful RPG that is full of marvelous details, including a brilliant art style, a very involving narration technique and some very accessible gameplay mechanics. Continuing with the practice of bringing major, successful games to the Nintendo Switch, Bastion is worthy of all the attention it gets.

Sports Party offers a rather simple experience in what is a game that returns to the market ten years after its original release. There is some simple fun to be had in local multiplayer sessions, thanks to its varied events and character customization options, but the game's rather shallow gameplay and lack of an online multiplayer component means that its potential is very limited.

Shadow Fight 2 joins the large catalogue of fighting games on the Nintendo Switch in a genre that has a lot of competition. While this may not be the finest masterpiece ever done, Shadow Fight 2 features an original gameplay which coupled with its art style, can make this a fun and enjoyable experience, despite its disappointing single player mode.

Save me Mr. Tako! is a contemporary tribute to the Game Boy made with today's resources and with all the advantages that implies. That being said, and for all its qualities, its controls generate unnecessary frustration, the game's difficulty feels out of place and the levels need more inspiration but there is no doubt Save me Mr. Tako! has a character of its own for those willing to explore it.

The amount and variety and questions is quite good and the way the game is structured makes for a good multiplayer time, which is fundamental to truly enjoy this game when faced with the arbitrary and unappealing one-player mode.

TETRA'S Escape is a puzzle game that takes a while to get off the ground and to offer some challenge. After going over the way too easy beginning, the game starts picking up but the difficulty level advances in a rather erratic way and it's coupled with an unappealing audiovisual environment. TETRA'S Escape ends up being too bland for its own good, harmed by its lack of appealing challenges and of a more welcome realm.

efarious features a concept that sets it apart from most games, only to throw the player into an experience that feels bland and repetitive. While a lot of the game's aspects are competent, the level design makes it duller and much more linear than it should and the very difficult jumping required will not make the experience more enjoyable, which feels like a waste in a game that promises so much.

Road Redemption is not the average racing game - by combining racing and action with a few RPG elements when it comes to progression, Road Redemption got its formula right when it comes to gameplay, aided by a very healthy lifespan that will keep players around it for a good amount of time.

Mercenaries Wings: The False Phoenix cannot be criticised for what it's not and it's certainly not a bad game - it's artwork is pleasant enough for the eyes and all the game mechanics work. The problem is, it doesn't do anything to rise above the mere threshold of functionality and it sticks to generic and worn out formulas for its plot and dialogues, it's riddled with clichés all over and the gameplay just feels shallow and unrewarding.

The Messenger is a marvel of a game in the form of tributes to classical 8 and 16-bit series, with accompanying styles to match. With its surprisingly involving and hilarious plot, The Messenger manages to feature both plenty of action and exploration in a retro style and to grab the player's attention to its events in a way that few games of a similar style do.

InkSplosion doesn't manage to stand out amidst the shoot'em ups available for the Nintendo Switch. While its visual environment is worthy of praise and its controls are responsive and well implemented, the game itself suffers from a lack of variety which turns it into a dull and repetitive effort, without any reason to attract any players to this work.

Just Dance 2019 doesn't stray away from the formula that made this the number one name in dancing games - and why should it, when it has demonstrated more than enough times that the Just Dance series can gather people around the idea of dancing? New gaming modes would certainly be welcome and while the growing musical catalogue is a big plus, the game feels like the same formula repeated every year. Not that this will bother newcomers and those looking for a fun moment, though.

Tennis World Tour might have been made with some ambitious goals in mind but unfortunately it doesn't take long to realize that not only the game's promises are not coming true, the game itself has virtually nothing going for it. Due to a botched delayed gameplay that leads to player's actions being horribly lagged and implemented differently, as well as a completely obsolete audiovisual environment and a glaring lack of content, there is no possible way to recommend Tennis World Tour to anyone, whether tennis fan or not.

Valiant Hearts: The Great War brings an involving and touching experience about World War One to the Nintendo Switch under the guise of a point and click game with puzzles to solve. While this aspect is not the strongest tenet of the game, as its puzzles could use a greater level of challenge, the game delivers everything else in a near flawless way, thanks to its well-devised plot, exquisite cartoon and comic book inspired visuals and overall message, which will go straight to the core about that devastating conflict.

Death Mark is an involving, disturbing and addictive game that will grab the players' attention and feelings with its marvelous visual style, script quality and lifespan. In n adventure that is as thrilling as it can be terrifying, Death Mark is one of the most remarkable games to come out on the Nintendo Switch this year and an excellent starting point to more games of this genre.

Moonlighter is an appealing and tough action game, with a management side and roguelike elements which builds up the Nintendo Switch catalogue further and further. With a challenging difficulty level and some eye-catching visual details, players will find themselves very much absorbed by Moonlighter's elements and it will be difficult to resist the simple but demanding mechanics of dungeon exploration and selling of items.

Disco Dodgeball Remix has a flair of its own and it features a visual and audio environment that are pretty unique. It doesn't fully live up to those standards, though, as the game's experience with the multiplayer component ends up feeling short due to a lack of online opponents and to a control system that needs more work.
