I’ve said again and again in my reviews of platformers that these types games usually don’t have good stories. In general, the writing in platformers is anywhere from “well, its a fun game” to “cringe, cringe, cringe”. There are exceptions to that rule though, such as Ratchet & Clank and Super Paper Mario. And awhile Yooka-Laylee for Nintendo Switch doesn’t have as good a story as Ratchet & Clank or Super Paper Mario, it does have excellent dialogue! Warning: there…

A console without a pinball game is a travesty, and thankfully Nintendo has avoided going into the new year without its own ball bouncing fun! Thanks to Zen Studio, Pinball FX 3 has landed on the Nintendo Switch just in time for the holidays, and with the Switch's unique features, it might just be the best pinball experience yet!

Having Pokémon games on the eShop has been great, and allowed me to go back and revisit some of my favorite titles in the series. Like the Mario Bros games, Pokémon titles seem to be the games you tend to buy over and over again if you are a huge fan; with the launch of Pokémon Crystal on the Nintendo eShop this January, I'll be able to add an other Pokémon classic to my collection of Pokémon games. Read the entire press release from Nintendo below, and stay tuned for more Pokémon Crystal news!

I reviewed Squareboy Vs. Bullies: Arena Edition on the Nintendo Switch. I thought the game was good but not a great game. Last week, Squareboy was brought to the Nintendo 3DS. Is the game better on the 3DS, not as good, or should you avoid the game altogether on this system? Squareboy Vs. Bullies is not a horrible beat ’em up, but if you have a Nintendo Switch and a 3DS, you should buy this game on the Switch. The…

One More Dungeon for the Nintendo Switch sneaks up on you. Of course, you would think you would know by the name “One More Dungeon” that something addictive might be waiting for you. Though, you’ve been through so many randomized dungeon crawlers before, maybe you’re becoming a little jaded? Granted, the concept of One More Dungeon isn’t anything new, but the execution of it will hook you. Ratalakia Games provided GamesReviews.com with a review code of this game. I’m not…

Turtle Beach is no stranger to headset releases, especially those tied to video game launches. Although not directly licenced, it was no coincidence that the Turtle Beach Recon Camo headset launched alongside Call of Duty: WWII! We've had this headset for a few weeks now, and have really been enjoying most aspects of it. Let's dive in, and you can see if it's the right fit for your needs and budget!

I reviewed Plantera on the Wii U and 3DS. I really liked the game. And now Plantera Deluxe is on the Nintendo Switch. Is this game any different from the Wii U and 3DS versions? Should you buy this game again if you already have it? I’ll answer these questions in my review of Planetera Deluxe for the Nintendo Switch. Plantera Deluxe for the Nintendo Switch is basically the same game that was on the Wii U. Not much has…

This week, Yooka-Laylee will finally arrive on the Nintendo Switch! Team 17 gave GamesReviews.com a review code for the game and I played it a bunch yesterday. I’m not very far into the game yet, however I wanted to give you my first impressions of it! So how is Yooka-Laylee on the Nintendo Switch? I can’t stop playing Yooka-Laylee for the Nintendo Switch. Even as I write this article, I’m wishing that I was playing the game instead. I am…

I love Steamworld Heist and so did Adam Roffel. So when the game was announced today for the Nintendo Switch, I was absolutely thrilled. Heist  belongs on the Switch! We have a trailer for the game and more details about it below. Steamworld Heist: Ultimate Edition will be coming to the Nintendo Switch on December 28th. The price for the game will be $19.99. The Ultimate Edition will include all DLC from previous versions, plus optional touch screen controls. Steamworld…

I did not watch the Game Awards last week. I thought about it, but Psych the Movie won out for my attention and I definitely made the right choice! That said, I did hear that Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild won Game of the Year. I really love that game, but is it my Game of the Year? And just how do I feel about these year end game awards that everybody does? I am a huge Legend…
