    Having spent a good amount of time across other collections on the system and even Nintendo’s NES Online app, this is easily the worst collection of older games on the Switch in terms of overall feel. While it has loads of games for the asking price, I would rather spend more and buy quality releases piecemeal or buy another collection for the Switch where there is a lot more to the release than just old roms with a few extras.

    Nintendo Switch certainly doesn’t have an abundance of first person shooters, and so Battlezone Gold Edition fills a definite gap in the catalogue, and its super-fast pace and simple premise will appeal to those who like to jump on and kill ten minutes in handheld mode.

    It almost feels like Horizon Chase did to Out Run what Octopath Traveler did to 16 bit era JRPGs when it comes to feel and visuals. If you need something to satiate your old school racing desire before Out Run shows up next year, get this. It is a must play title.

    Thief of Thieves is a stylish stealth thriller let down by dodgy AI and a lack of real imagination.

    Persona 3: Dancing in Moonlight is a fun rhythm game that could've been so much more but still manages to be well worth it for Persona 3 fans with some excellent music.

    Persona 5: Dancing in Starlight is a rhythm game that is very good but one that should've been released later on so it could've had a more varied soundtrack with better remixes.

    Darksiders III is a stunning achievement, bringing the once-dead series back to life with aplomb.

    If you can re-frame Fallout 76 as a survival crafting game in the Fallout universe rather than viewing it as the next instalment in the series then you will have a better time. It is not without its faults, but there is a base there that has the potential to be improved upon as time goes by.

    FromSoft's first VR game isn't an instant classic, but there's a lot here to give fans of the developers a look into where their talents can take them in the realms of virtual reality.

    A solid if unspectacular entry into the shoot ‘em up stable, Super Hydorah at least provides a decent amount of bang for your buck.

    Road Redemption is a fun successor to the classic Road Rash, but its inclusion of a roguelike element simply leads to far too much repetition.

    No other game this year celebrates or rewards player agency like Hitman 2. This isn’t a summer blockbuster that relegates its coolest moments to the cinematics. Yes, most deaths will be shown with an abrupt cutscene, but it’s you that causes them. You’ll never see a target die and wonder how it happened. In all cases you’re the sole orchestrator of doom, and it’s a genuinely empowering feeling.

    Whilst more Spider-Man is never a bad thing, the DLC doesn't last that long, and there's nothing really new to keep you entertained outside the story.

    Crayola Scoot provides the kind of lighthearted competition that makes for a great way to occupy those rained-in weekend afternoons.

    There’s a lot to enjoy in Chasm if you’re after a less intense Metroidvania-like experience.

    Chimparty will appeal to children initially, but its over-simplified controls and odd way of rewarding victory in party games will even put them off before long.

    It may not be The Witcher game you expected, but Thronebreaker: The Witcher Tales is an exceptional addition to the series, and a must-play for all Gwent fans.

    Knowledge is Power: Decades is how not to do a sequel. The premise is still fun, but should only be purchased if you can't get access to the original.

    Pokémon: Let's Go, Eevee! is a great blend of the old and the new, bringing the same great adventure to the present, and incorporating Pokémon Go brilliantly to help newcomers feel welcome.

    It’s nearly Christmas, and if you’re stuck for a Party game this year the team at Jackbox has you covered once again.

    It's great to see Spyro back in the picture, and with the remasters it doesn't look out of place in today's day and age. It's a joy to play, but the charging and camera angles let it down somewhat.

    I never thought I'd ever feel this way about a Tetris game, but here we are. It has the same addictive and fun gameplay, as well as some amazing visuals and a soundtrack that offers so much emotion.

    Even before playing on live servers I’m not afraid to say that Battlefield V’s multiplayer is great. That is simply undeniable. It’s impossible to not care about the result of each match, tense finishes seem to happen almost every other game and the moment to moment action is incredibly satisfying.

    Outside of a mostly good UI redesign too many elements of Just Dance 2019 just feel too famili-famili-familiar.

    11-11 Memories Retold tells the intersecting stories of Allied War Photographer Harry and German soldier Kurt as they are thrust together by circumstance. A rushed final act and factual information about WWI hidden in collectibles do, unfortunately, undermine much of the excellent early work.

    Occasional repetition issues aside, The Shapeshifting Detective succeeds with strong character dialogue, a well-used morphing mechanic and its atmospheric setting.

    A melting pot of puzzles, adventure, fun, and feel-good charm make your short time with Tsioque very enjoyable.

    While often fun, GRIP: Combat Racing’s opening hours will put some folk off, due to some iffy balancing issues and awkward track design. Stick with it and you’ll find an entertaining, old school combat racer.

    A wonderfully nostalgic mix of beautiful pixels, rousing music and sometimes brutal difficulty.

    The Room on Switch is the definitive experience when it comes to controls and visuals and the only real flaw is the fact that holding the Switch for a touch only game is not as comfortable as holding your iPhone or iPad with weight and the battery life is obviously not great on the Switch.
