I played Mercenaries Saga 2 and 3 on the 3DS. I enjoyed the second one a lot, but never could get into the third one for some reason. And yet when Mercenaries Saga Chronicles for the Nintendo Switch was announced, I was excited! The first game had never been released on the 3DS so I didn’t play it.

Once thing, though, that Nintendo has never stalled out on, within the Mario Party franchise, are the mini games. When compared to any other home party title, Mario Party has some of the best - if not these best - mini games available, and to ...
