Even though it misses a few chances to do more, Dr. Mario: Miracle Cure is still the best version of this classic puzzler so far. [Issue #16 – July/August 2015, p.21]- Nintendo Force Magazine

Fossil Fighters: Frontier is simply a good introductory RPG packed to the brim with dinosaurs – and that may be just what the young gamer in your life will want soon, when the dino-craze takes over once more. [Issue #15; May/June 2015, p.76]- Nintendo Force Magazine

Natsume deserves our thanks for bringing the Bokujo Monogatari series to the West, but now it's XSEED's turn to shine – and indeed they have. [Issue #15; May/June 2015, p.75]- Nintendo Force Magazine

BOXBOY! is just so pure, so perfect a puzzler that I wish it had existed way back when, so that in some alternate timeline I would have been able to play decades' worth of sequels to it by now. It's that good. [Issue #15; May/June 2015, p.25]- Nintendo Force Magazine

If gamers flock to Tipping Stars and really embrace the level creator, we could see a thriving community that provides tons of innovative levels for years to come. If people skip the game, you're stuck with another by-the-numbers sequel in this long-running series. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.30]- Nintendo Force Magazine

Blek isn't for everyone, and I'm sure it will divide some Wii U owners. But if you approach the game with the right attitude – and accept the game's minimalistic approach to game design – then you might find it to be one of the best puzzle games available in the Wii U eShop.

3D After Burner II is not a deep game in the slightest, but it is a lot of fun and great for quick pick-up-and-play sessions. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.27]- Nintendo Force Magazine

3D Fantasy Zone may sting at times, but at least now you have enough ointment to soothe the burning. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.26]- Nintendo Force Magazine

The Boss Pack is a fun, little ride. It's a fine finale for what has been an impressive DLC array overall. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.25]- Nintendo Force Magazine

The Majora's Mask pack is my favorite out of all the Hyrule Warriors DLC options – it ticks all the right boxes for me. Don't miss it! [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.25]- Nintendo Force Magazine

If you have the patience of a saint and like the pick-up-and-play experience, Pokémon Shuffle might be perfect for you. If you don't like the idea of being nickel-and-dimed to experience puzzling at a normal pace, this game's sure to get your blood boiling.

If you can accept IronFall as dumb fun, then you might derive some enjoyment from its multiplayer – but it has too many issues to fully recommend it. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.28]- Nintendo Force Magazine

The value and quality for the price is tremendous, and if you've got an itch for some old-school platforming action with a unique aesthetic that's old-school in a whole other way, then we really cannot recommend this latest Clive adventure enough.

Dark, surreal, poignant. Link's foray into the world of Termina – a strange fascimile of Hyrule destined to be crushed beneath a grimacing moon unless our hero can find a way to stop its descent – is certainly one of his most unusual adventures, but it's also one of his best.

Whether you're hunting down four of your friends as an embodiment of King Koopa himself in Bowser Party mode, fighting over the steering wheel in Mario Party mode or tapping your amiibo to the GamePad again and again and again in amiibo Party mode, you'll have a blast if you're in the company of good friends.

I expected that I'd like Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. – what I didn't expect was to love it. This is a game that fires on all cylinders right from the start and never lets up – it's seriously challenging, charmingly funny and packed with entirely new design ideas every step of the way. Code Name: S.T.E.A.M. is a triumph. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.68]- Nintendo Force Magazine

Though it can't quite hide the fact that it's a 2011 game here in 2015, the new amiibo support and the strength of the existing game design have combined to make Assault Horizon Legacy+ a winner for a second time. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.70]- Nintendo Force Magazine

While there are some creative innovations Tabot implemented that Marvelous could've considered, The Lost Valley lacks the soul that previous Harvest Moons had. [Issue #14: Old vs. New – March/April 2015, p.71]- Nintendo Force Magazine
