Super Meat Boy is a nearly flawless example of 2D platforming design, able to stand toe-to-toe with Mario's finest. [Issue #22 – July/August 2016, p.20]- Nintendo Force Magazine

It is what it is: a smaller game concept that served its purpose as an E3 tech demo well, and so was polished up to become a nice companion piece for a bigger game. [Issue #21 – May/June 2016, p.76]- Nintendo Force Magazine

Star Fox 64 remains the reigning king of this franchise in my book, but Zero is a great Star Fox game too – if you give it a chance. [Issue #21 – May/June 2016, p.75]- Nintendo Force Magazine

If you're a super player and don't mind an intense gauntlet of challenges, put your money where your mouth is and give it a go. [Issue #21 – May/June 2016, p.27]- Nintendo Force Magazine

If you only have access to an older 3DS model, it's really a hard sell – except if you have incredible patience. But when the game gets plugged into a New Nintendo 3DS or a New 3DS XL, it's a match made in heaven. [Issue #20 – March/April 2016, p.65]- Nintendo Force Magazine

It's a shame that Digital Eclipse couldn't iron out all the wrinkles, but despite all that, Mega Man Legacy Collection is a decent little package. [Issue #20 – March/April 2016, p.71]- Nintendo Force Magazine
