Yoshi’s New Island tries to replicate the first chapter as often as possible but its lack of new elements and an ever-present feeling of repetitiveness keep the 3DS title from reaching the same heights as its SNES forefather. But make no mistake about it, this is a fine piece of gaming, bursting with colour and spoiling the players with a magnificent visual design and an overall satisfying gameplay.- FNintendo

Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe may not be plentiful as far as its contents are concerned but what is to be found here is entertaining enough to keep any kind of player happy throughout some quick gaming sessions.- FNintendo

Kung Fu Rabbit draws its inspiration from very appreciated titles but doesn't go beyond that. While being a competent platformer, the overall experience is not captivating and can easily become repetitive. As far as platforms go, there are more interesting offers in the market.- FNintendo

Titan Quest does not represent the pinnacle of action RPG and this remastered version for the Nintendo Switch shows its twelve years of age, even if its gameplay remains fairly interesting. While sometimes its content in terms of objects and weapons feels too much, its local and online multiplayer modes are an added value. On the downside, the game feels too repetitive and its outdated visual component becomes a handicap.- FNintendo

Dead or School is an interesting and ambitious RPG with hack and slash elements that features a surprisingly interesting plot and a good, sharp, fun combat system. The game's limitations are obvious, however, and the game's performance isn't always the sharpest but fans of RPGs will appreciate this effort.- FNintendo

Battle Princess Madelyn is not without its problems. While its arcade mode is easily the most enjoyable, it also ends up defeating the purpose of including a metroidvania component in the game. With a high difficulty level and some memorable cut scenes, it also has some gameplay issues that require solving and which stand on the way of making this a more recommended title.- FNintendo

Jake Hunter Detective Story: Ghost of the Dusk brings some interesting elements for fans of visual novels and murder mysteries thanks to its appealing art style and content to explore. It does not fully live up to the genre's reputation, though, as the challenge level falls short of expectations an the feeling of progression in the game's plot lacks consistency.- FNintendo

I Am the Hero tries to bring back the 16-bit sidescrolling beat'em up and for a game that features such a good art style and amount of attacks and combos, its overall experience falls short of what is to be expected. Repetitiveness, poor controls and performance issues end up harming this effort, which could have risen to a much higher level if they had been properly addressed.- FNintendo

Bee Simulator shows that it is possible to be both fun and educational in an effort that is fitting for players of all ages. While there are flaws to this experience, namely on the level of its too sensitive controls and rather lacklustre settings, the overall gameplay is relaxing and can provide some enjoyable albeit short time around a Nintendo Switch.- FNintendo

The Mysterious Cities of Gold: Secret Paths is yet another example of an entertaining game based on a popular television series…entertaining, but flawed, as it does not make proper use of the 3DS, starting with the lack of a 3D mode, added to an overall feeling of repetitiveness. Still, it’s an effort that can be enjoyed by fans of the series, but not a trailblazing or groundbreaking piece of work.- FNintendo

While there is certainly some merit in basing a game on a physics engine of this kind, it also means that Human: Fall Flat relies too much on its control scheme and on trying to handle very frustrating movements way too often.- FNintendo

Bloo Kid 2 is a fun and competent platform game which perfectly captures the spirit of late 80s and early 90s platformers...perhaps a bit too much, as it resorts to blatant copying of some of the biggest names in the field.- FNintendo

AO Tennis 2 on the Nintendo Switch sets expectations high but for a tennis simulation, everything falls below the required standards. While the career mode and the player creation tool are interesting, the game's cast of players feels disconnected from reality, while the gameplay feels too demanding and the graphics are simply out of date for the current time. Adding some performance issues to that doesn't make AO Tennis 2 any better and in the end, what could have been a good tennis simulation falls into a more disappointing side of the spectrum.- FNintendo

Homo Machina is a game with a very fun concept and an attractive art style that will put the player working on some interesting puzzles, before its short lifespan comes into view. The way it was converted to the Nintendo Switch also made Homo Machina a peculiar game to control and which loses a lot when played on a television screen. This is a game that would benefit a lot more from a longer lifespan and improved controls.- FNintendo

Refunct has its advantages, it certainly helps the player relax and provides for a nice experience. Unfortunately Refunct is limited in what it gives the players: it is too short, too simple and its mechanics too limited for Refunct to be a truly enjoyable game. If Refunct made a greater effort at being a longer, more in-depth experience, it could be a recommended work.- FNintendo

Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast has the right to a Nintendo Switch version many years after its original release, but age does not affect this Star Wars classic in any negative way. While the initial part of the game is rather cumbersome, after thirty-something minutes the player will get a significant push into the spirit of the saga and the game's plot, light saber duels and soundtrack will make a splendorous job at fully inserting the fans into this work.- FNintendo

Metroid Prime: Federation Force could have been a whole new entry in the Metroid Prime series but unfortunately its fine control system and variety of game modes (including online multiplayer) are not enough to save it from the overall lack of interest of its missions, lacklustre bosses (for the Metroid series, at least) and simply unfitting art style and visual environment.- FNintendo

Master Reboot tries to fill a gap within the Wii U catalogue and despite its efforts and some success regarding its variety and sound effects, it doesn't do the job. Several design flaws and graphical bugs, as well as a lack of replay value and motivation to return to the game once finished stand in the way of Master Reboot becoming a more interesting title.- FNintendo

League of Evil is simple and competent enough. While it gets the basics right, it doesn't go far enough to become memorable or to stand above its peers. The growing catalog of platformers for the Nintendo Switch make this game a less appealing choice and its confusing level editor make League of Evil a game that can be easily overlooked.- FNintendo

Puzzle Adventure Blockle has its share of good intentions that don't get fully implemented. Its puzzles are fun and feature some funny ideas and the game has a very precise difficulty curve but it needs some polishing around its plot and feature more incentives to solve its puzzles.- FNintendo

Touhou Genso Wanderer Reloaded adds to the Nintendo Switch catalogue a game that is based on dungeon crawling, slapped with a roguelike formula. If the exploration is very challenging, even merciless at times, and features quite a wealth of weapons and objects to catch, the difficulty can reach too high peaks. The most obvious collateral damage is that it will be mostly fans of the Touhou series who will dedicate themselves to the game, while newcomers will feel put off by the difficulty and rather repetitive combat. A decent formula but which could do more to reach out.- FNintendo

Life of Pixel does a fine job at recreating the nostalgic environments of videogaming from the 1980s and 1990s, with all the references in the rights places and the visual and sound aspects that go with the job. However, its level design suffers from imbalances when the experiences become too repetitive and the gameplay too shallow, which harms the overall feeling of insertion into a 1980s and 1990s gaming setting.- FNintendo

Little Town Hero is an RPG whose main asset is an original and challenging combat system, as well as the added bonus of its high quality soundtrack. Little Town Hero does not stand up to the highest thresholds, however, on account of a rather bare plot, short length and overall lack of ambition, which makes this an experience that feels somewhat half-complete, as it could have gone much further and led to a more enriching experience.- FNintendo

Cut the Rope: Triple Treat is not harmed by its gameplay, its controls or its technical aspects. What keeps it from being a more prominent and recommended title for those who seek short, fun gaming sessions, is its business model. A compilation of three games, including two previously released on the mobile market, does not justify its high price tag.- FNintendo

Its combo approach adds a fast-paced environment to the platforming genre and it will surely stand out among other retro-themed games available on the Wii U's downloadable catalogue.- FNintendo

While Tank Troopers has an interesting concept, the game feels like it was not properly finished and rather plays like a rushed effort in order to be released before the 3DS starts fading out of the market.- FNintendo

The game doesn't make the same splash elsewhere and its interface is more complicated than it should be, while some sound problems make it less pleasant on the ears in contrast to its well-designed visuals. Nonetheless, One More Dungeon can still be an entertaining piece of gaming.- FNintendo

With plenty of missions, its lifespan stands out positively but its control system needs tweaking, as it often happens that players will find themselves in difficulties in several moments. At the same time, the game could also use some more individual charm of its own.- FNintendo

Thanks to its randomly generated dungeons, the game features a long lifespan, reinforced by its simplicity and ease to pick up and play. Where the game feels like a letdown is on its lacklustre sound environment, as well as on its excessively long loading times and hastily made multiplayer mode.- FNintendo

Thanks to an original level design and to an interesting cooperative mode, this turns out to be a rather fun effort when played on short gaming sessions. Overall it could feature more attention to detail on some elements, not to mention that its soundtrack needs serious improvement and its fluidity problems need to be addressed.- FNintendo
