    Waku Waku 7 may not be the most mind blowing fighting game ever made but it certainly is full of charm thanks to its unique, albeit short, cast of characters and wonderfully executed animations. While sometimes it stumbles upon technical issues, the gameplay is satisfying and it's another game to add to the growing list of classic titles in the Nintendo Switch eShop.

    A beautiful fighting game that falls short in number of characters and game modes. Gamepad configuration and tabletop controls need improvement.

    Waku Waku 7 doesn’t really stand out from the crowd in my mind, but the only other game with anywhere near as strange a character roster is probably Darkstalkers, so fighting game or SNK aficionados will probably get a kick of this oddball. For everyone else, though, there are better fighting games out there.

    Waku Waku 7 owes a lot to Dragon Ball -- in fact, it could easily be a decent Dragon Ball arcade fighter with a roster and stage makeover. ButWaku Waku 7 owes a lot to Dragon Ball -- in fact, it could easily be a decent Dragon Ball arcade fighter with a roster and stage makeover. But it's a lot of fun just the way it is, with a zany roster and some genuinely funny dialogue that accentuates the charm and personality of every fighter. It's a pity Sunsoft never saw fit to create any sequels, as there's a lot of untapped potential here. Check it out! Full Review »
