I thought I wasn’t going to get a Nintendo Switch till Christmas. And then, one day recently, I found out we were able to get a Nintendo Switch!

The guys over at Achievement Hunters teamed up with Ubisoft US to demo the multiplayer modes in Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle via the Ubisoft YouTube Channel.

Read MoreOvercooked: Special Edition Review
Overcooked has been available before, but players were tied to their consoles if they wanted to play. With the Special Edition launch on the Nintendo Switch, Overcooked is now available on the go, and it is one of the best, handheld/tabletop Nintendo Switch experiences to date. While the game will pose strong challenges to those playing by themselves, it's still incredibly rewarding to complete each level, and even more rewarding when getting the full three stars! Multiplayer, however, is definitely where this game shines.

I was really disappointed in Nintendo’s E3 last year. Don’t get me wrong, I love Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild but we just saw way too much of it and there wasn’t any other big games. This year, however, Nintendo has stepped up their game. And as a Nintendo fan, I really want to tell them this: Thank you. Thank you so much for giving us so much cool content this year. What did Nintendo do today? I’ll…
