    Super Meat Boy 3D is just a shadow of its original version; its visuals don't match the graphics, the soundtrack doesn't fit, and the controls are more frustrating than the game's difficulty itself.

    City Hunter is an anime-based game with mechanics that remind me of platformers from the 80s and 90s, but it doesn't work very well in today's world.

    GIGASWORD attempts to bring the experience of a classic Castlevania to the modern era. Unfortunately, the experience is similar to Simon's Quest: laborious, difficult, and highly punishing. A frustrating experience, made even more difficult by numerous technical problems.

    The Everybody's Golf franchise has seen better days, especially in previous entries where performance, ethics, and game design were taken more seriously.

    Baki Hanma: Blood Arena is visually well made, since it takes assets directly from the anime, but it falls short in everything else considered minimally acceptable. The intentions are good, but the product itself is too lazy and limited.

    Tactical Takedown is a product that is anything but TMNT. In a few minutes, I can see an absurdly generic atmosphere and lack of identity in this game that, despite its name, has nothing that makes it TMNT — c'mon, you can't even play with the four brothers on the same stage.

    Super World Technos is a collection that serves as an example of how not to make a collection: With laziness and sloppiness.
    • 60 Metascore

    Gex Trilogy is a package that brings back the Gex 2D and 3D trilogy, but leaves too much to be desired when it comes to improvements.

    Locomoto promises to be a relaxing train game, and maybe it is for some, but it lacks immersion. It lacks polish in many aspects, such as graphics, interactions and quality of life. It would be much more interesting if its decoration and crafting system were more optimized.

    The indie Shadow of the Oriented does not propose to do a whole lot for the platforming genre, but the Switch version goes above and beyond (in the bad sense), and gets delivered with critical technical issues.

    Nostalgia has been betraying me lately, and it wasn't different with Star Wars: Jedi Power Battles. Repetition and poorly-made mechanics are the biggest pain points in this lazy remaster.

    • 10 Critic Score
    NASCAR Arcade Rush is one of the worst racing games I've ever had the chance to play in my life. Its lack of content and superficiality is absurd - in addition to the removal of features on the Switch version - is definitely a shame for the NASCAR franchise.

    Make no mistake: Atari Mania isn't a collection nor a compilation of games from the Atari era, but instead it's a homage in an explorational format plus games remixes.

    Hazel Sky is an indie that seemed to be a very ambitious project, however, it gives me the impression of having narrowed down its scope to get good to go on the launch date.
    • 72 Metascore

    Souldiers is a metroidvania with potential. It has a good story and very creative enemies, but the constant technical problems greatly hinder the game experience.
    • 72 Metascore

    Despite its original art style, eerie mood and fast paced puzzles, the game doesn't redeem itself from its simplicity and boredom. It's very short, which is a good thing, and only recommended for those who don't have anything better to play.

    • 30 Critic Score
    Tasomachi is a good frame to be admired, but not to be played. The game feels like a beta thing, not to mention that there's not much to do in terms of gameplay aside from collecting stuff and solving repetitive puzzles.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Monark stood out for its psychological testing, but all its downsides in terms of narrative, combat, and performance make this a session that I'll never want to replay.

    GTA The Trilogy: The Definitive Edition is a collection of 3 great titles that left their mark in history. However, the so-called Definitive Edition came out without the deserved treatment.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 35 Critic Score
    Mickey Storm and the Cursed Mask is a game that doesn't look ready on the Switch. The story is generic, the characters are as bland as they come, the stages are repetitive and with physics that seem completely random, not to mention the huge amount of bugs.

    It can sound exaggerated, but King's Bounty II is one of the most boring games that I ever touched. Its open-world poorly executed mechanics are disappointing. The battles, which were supposed to be the core of the gameplay plus the best part of it, also don't stand out , since they're so dependent on grinding through the almost mandatory sidequests.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Gnosia has a good proposal but its immersion is very shallow due to the limited responses that the characters return, making it difficult to say who lies and who speaks the truth. Maybe if they had voice acting, it could be more interesting.

    Dream Alone is an unpleasant experience. It really needed a great amount of polish to even be a recommendable game. I was really disappointment with the enormous headache this game caused me.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Assault Gunners HD Edition shouldn't be released at all, since there's no positive aspects in the game. A generic soundtrack, bad graphics and repetitive gameplay summarizes what the game is. While the mecha customization is cool, it took way too long to understand how it all works and the payoff isn't worth it.

    • 40 Critic Score
    Spiral Splatter is a game that does not deserve your attention and is not worth even for fans of puzzle games. It is something that deviated from the previous pole of being released.
    • 48 Metascore

    Fear Effect Sedna by far is the worst game that we put our hands on this year. It is not possible to highlight a positive point, either in the technical aspects like graphics, sound, gameplay, or artistic aspects such as style or history. Of course, the effect of this game on the players is ghastly.

    If you're looking for something that reminds you of the great classics, it's better to let Rodea pass.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Shut the Box delivers something even simpler than the other games by RCMADIAX, and although this may be the one with the best game mechanic, its content is so shallow that, instead of delivering good fun, the game is just a distraction.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    Blok Drop U's systems work to some extent, but the almost complete absence of other attractives and the feel of randomness makes it a difficult game to recommend.
    • tbd Metascore

    Paying 5 dollars in a world with Mobile Apps and Facebook games that generate an infinite number of challenges for free isn't, in any way, a smart investment.

    Need For Speed: The Run on Wii is a weak, tedious, disorganized and frustrating experience. You must be a die-hard fan to play it.
    • 41 Metascore

    It is a paradox that a paid product has less content and quality that dozens of similar freewares out there.

    There are better Arkanoid clones for free out there.

    Ninja Castle is, in a nutshell, a sequel to a bad game that doesn't fix the original's mistakes. It's more of the same, and, therefore, not recommended.

    Apparently, Nintendo had to revisit Urban Champion at least once. We should all be happy that's out of the way now, hoping that true classics show up next in the eShop as 3D Classics.

    Definitely not worth the price charged.

    The Force Unleashed II on the DS has medium graphics and interesting sound effects, but everything else is sad. The force, definitely, is not in this title.

    Heracles: Chariot Racing is a stupid copy of Mario Kart, as lots of them which we are used to since the first one was launched, in 1992.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    No graphic (there aren't even movements on it!) or sound appeal, it only serves as a test on WiiWare.
    • 46 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    This game is a type of simplified version of Big Brain Academy. It may entertain you and your friends who want to quickly test their brains, but it becomes a horrible game after a few hours.

    There's nothing to see here. Another bomb from Aksys on WiiWare, which, this time, couldn't even fulfill the least a player expects from a generic Wii Remote game: swings of the controller.

    Fish'em All! is a medium game. It doesn't have great graphics, it bothers in sound effects (because banjos make anyone furious) and it fails it gameplay matters. If at least this last one worked, the other two wouldn't be of big importance.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Texas Hold'em Tournament is a simple and cheap game, directed only to those who want to challenge their faraway friends in a poker match. For any other person, it's recommended to buy a common 52 card pack and go to a bar table. But no real bets, please.

    While Europe and Japan have launched Wii Chess, which has better graphics and a bigger variety of game options, the American Wii has as the best (and only option) chess game Silver Star Chess.

    There's no reason for buying Crystal Defenders R1. Doing so would be inappropriate because it incentivizes Square Enix to keep launching these "games" on download services of the consoles. It only makes any sense of you don't have Flash in you computer and want to experiment with the genre at any cost.

    My Aquarium attracts the casual public of the Wii because of its promise to be a true virtual aquarium, but gamers probably won't find anything worthy.
    • 50 Metascore

    Baroque is the true Patience Game: it has more negative than positive points. And for the ones who get easily sick of these games, you'll try to throw Baroque out of the window.
