Give Dragalia Lost a pass for now. For the same amount of money and time, you could support a developer by buying and playing an actual, full game. [Issue #38 – March/April 2019, p. 20]- Nintendo Force Magazine

In the end, Nickelodeon Kart Racers is just kind of passable (and compared to others, I'm being generous with it). [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 75]- Nintendo Force Magazine

A fair spin-off that could have been better if it had leaned even further into the parody that ultimately wound up just being inconsequential window dressing for gameplay that's not at all related to Ghostbusters. [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 69]- Nintendo Force Magazine

TowerFall is not to be overlooked. It offers up some of the best competitive and co-op action the Switch has ever seen, even next to Smash! [Issue #37 – January/February 2019, p. 25]- Nintendo Force Magazine
