As a big fan of BurgerTime, I'm happy that I finally had the chance to play Super Burger Time as it's an incredibly underrated arcade sequel. So, if you can't get enough burgers in your retro gaming diet then you'll definitely want to dine here.

Wizard Fire is a promising classic isometric fantasy action RPG. However, its gameplay quickly falls apart due to repetition, frustration, and even a potential game-ending glitch.

If you're looking for a casual puzzler that you can take on the go then Fill-a-Pix: Phil's Epic Adventure is worth checking out. Just make sure that you won't be disappointed by the casual easygoing experience before asking Phil to pour you a hot cup of tea.

If you're a true shoot 'em up fan then playing 1917: The Alien Invasion DX will just make you mad. With a completely broken scoring system and a super-tedious campaign that plays like Simon Says, it's hard to imagine who would actually enjoy this.

Arcade Archives: Renegade is like a time capsule full of tchotchkes; it's cool to open it up and take a look but there's very little substance that remains useful in this day and age.

Anima: Gate of Memories - The Nameless Chronicles is undoubtedly a great RPG with little downsides. It has fluid combat, plenty of loot to collect, a haunting story, and amazing enemy variety.

Although you may not have heard of it, Money Puzzle Exchanger is nothing short of a classic competitive puzzler. Its addictive gameplay and lively atmosphere make it a great game to pick up and play whenever you're in the mood for some puzzle fun.

Blacksea Odyssey is a rather challenging game for me to score because it's filled with both wonderful highs and demoralizing lows. Despite my criticisms, I can still safely say that my overall experience with it was mostly positive.

When it comes to 2D fighters, Koihime Enbu Ryo Rai Rai is certainly a competent one that rivals some of the more well-known entries in the genre. If you're a fighting game enthusiast then you definitely won't regret giving it a download.

Next Up Hero's intuitive gameplay and non-linear structure make it a fantastic game to play every once in a while. Just don't expect to be obsessed with traversing its dungeons because the repetition will sink in much sooner than you'd hope.

I found myself having an exceptionally enjoyable time with Road to Ballhalla as I played. By blending challenging gameplay, clever mechanics, and a great sense of humor, it deserves to be a road well-traveled.

Despite its flaws, there's still a lot of fun to be had with Chasm. Exploring and finding new secrets is satisfying but traversing the same areas multiple times is not. The combat is also a mixed bag as some enemies are enjoyable to fight and others are a chore.

If you enjoy retro games then you owe it to yourself to download Nitro Ball. It's the most impressive arcade game that I've played in years and I'm very grateful that it got ported to a modern console.

Guns, Gore and Cannoli 2 isn't going to give your brain a workout or challenge you with precision gameplay but you could do a lot worse if you're just looking for a simple and easy to pick up and play 2D action game.

Sometimes, playing a game from decades ago is more gratifying than picking up the latest and supposedly greatest games. Working through the massive campaign is such a blast and I couldn't recommend Forsaken Remastered enough for fans of the genre.

Whip! Whip! is a decent take on a classic formula and it can be pretty fun with a friend. However, don't count on anything particularly original or exciting. The adorable presentation only goes so far.

If you're looking for a twin-stick shooter that sets itself apart by offering a huge and varied campaign then Defenders of Ekron: Definitive Edition will surely not disappoint. Plus, the bonus Invaders of Ekron game is the icing on the cake.

HackyZack can be fun if you enjoy intensely challenging 2D games but for everyone else, it's simply too irritating to recommend.

Newbies who are easily impressed with any game that looks retro might enjoy Shikhondo: Soul Eater. However, if you're a hardcore shoot 'em up fan or even have some familiarity with the genre, you'll be rather disappointed with this offering.

I loved playing Spectrum's challenging scenarios and highly recommend it to any gamer who enjoys replaying and mastering stages.

Mixing genres usually results in interesting gaming experiences yet Vroom Kaboom is a bit too mixed up to be enjoyable.

Haunted Dungeons: Hyakki Castle may have interesting and satisfying dungeon crawling survival gameplay but its presentational aspects definitely take a lot of fun out of the equation.

If you ever see a monkey floating around on a cloud then you should slap him to prevent any more of these games from being made.

I enjoyed Neonwall much more than I thought I would. If you have PlayStation VR and you're looking for a unique and challenging game then you could do a lot worse than this delightful offering.

While the core combat is mostly dull and uninspired, Nefarious still shines thanks to its witty writing, likeable characters, and enjoyable genre-swapping gameplay mechanics.

If you're a fan of having good times while hanging out with and challenging virtual online pals then Hover is a must-buy game.

If the idea of a 2D platform shooter roguelike with minimalist visuals appeals to you then Gonner: Blueberry Edition will be a welcome addition to your gaming library. Just keep in mind; easily frustrated gamers need not apply.

I'm glad that they made Earth Defense Force 4.1: Wing Diver The Shooter as it's a solid fit for the goofy series. However, it simply doesn't provide enough satisfying gameplay to make it worth playing through more than a couple times.

If you love 2D platformers then MagiCat is definitely one that you don't want to miss. Its tight gameplay and charming world make it one of the most enjoyable indie experiences on the Switch.

On the surface, Anodyne looks a lot like the older Zelda games. As you start to dig deeper, you'll find that it strays quite a bit from this formula but unfortunately, it also ends up leaving behind a lot of what made games like Zelda fun in the first place.

In a time when dozens of awesome Bomberman games have already been released and the series recently made a comeback, this indie clone simply doesn't offer much substance that you can't already get from Hudson Soft's classic franchise.

As a port of one of the most enjoyable Kinect games, Boom Ball: Boost Edition simply isn't as fun with Joy-Cons as it is to stand beside a friend while virtually whacking balls with your bare hands.

Overhead racing games don't get much better than Super Pixel Racers. Its tight and intense gameplay is virtually unmatched.

If you enjoy arcade rail shooters and want to play an especially challenging one in virtual reality then I can't recommend Drone Striker highly enough. Blasting away its evil robot aliens is so much fun that it'll make your headset spin.

Games don't need deep stories and intricately rendered game worlds to be fun and Halloween Forever proves this through and through.

I'm a little disappointed with this first pack of DLC given that it's so short, the tomb isn't very interesting, and the two new modes are quite similar. However, I love that co-op mode is introduced as it's definitely the most promising addition. Here's hoping for more interesting scenery and lengthier challenges in future DLC packs.

A competitive twin-stick shooter with matches that play like Nidhogg is such a fantastic idea for a game. When you factor in the awesome Data East characters and stages, you're left with a nostalgia-fueled funfest that feels fresh and exciting.

It may not be the best arcade beat 'em up but Two Crude Dudes provides some fun times, especially during co-op multiplayer.

Shoot Out has a generic name and what's here is exactly what you'd expect. However, it takes a lot of practice to be able to dispatch enemies before they shoot you which offers a steep yet rewarding learning curve.

If you want to rob trains in a video game then Express Raider is a solid choice. Its old-school controls, varied gameplay modes, and intense action make it more fun than robbing trains in Red Dead Redemption 2; whatever that is...

After all is said and done, Emerald Shores has potential but it's held back by tedious combat that drags down most of the experience.

As a compilation of the arcade and Sega Saturn versions of a shoot 'em up from the mid-'90s, Game Tengoku CruisinMix holds up impressively well. Here's hoping we get to see a port of GunBare! Game Tengoku 2 soon.

Of all the Touhou games that I've played so far, Gensokyo Defenders remains one of the best due to its unique and addictive gameplay. It's definitely rough around the edges but there's still a ton of fun to be had waging war with these charming ladies.

When it comes to volleyball games, Super Volley Blast is definitely the best one that I ever played. Its basic yet satisfying gameplay, enjoyable presentation, and large assortment of content bump, set, and spike it for the win.

With so many better tennis and indie sports games on the market, it's hard to recommend Timber Tennis: Versus. The flat and overly simplistic gameplay just doesn't slice it. Tennis puns; gotta love 'em...

The library of PlayLink games has been growing a great deal recently so thankfully, Wordhunters is a worthwhile multiplayer experience that's filled with silly word-based mini-game mayhem.

Resonance of Fate is one of the most unique JRPGs out there complete with an interesting story and a fun battle system that poses just the right level of challenge. I highly recommend it for any RPG fan who's looking for something different.

Gundemoniums is a huge improvement over Platine Dispositif's classic shmup Gundemonium Recollection. That being said, I can't help but wish more content was included because at its core, it's still a very short-lived game.

If running, jumping, and farting around while a huge monster chases you sounds like fun then you'll likely enjoy this off-the-wall indie.

If you're looking for a relaxed yet challenging puzzler that you can enjoy in short bursts then CricktoGame is worth a purchase.

If you're a JRPG fan who has never played Atelier Rorona or only played the original version then The Alchemist of Arland DX is definitely worth a purchase, especially if you enjoy lighthearted whimsical tales set in delightful worlds.

The retro premise of Super Life of Pixel is fantastic but the degree of challenge is a bit too hard for its own good. As a result, many casual gamers will likely give up well before experiencing everything it has to offer.

Rush VR is a beautiful and enjoyable wingsuit VR racer with a ton of content. If that sounds fun then you won't regret giving it a try.

Youtubers Life: OMG Edition is a barebones sim with a monotonous gameplay loop that'll make you never want to be a YouTube star.

Atari Flashback Classics Vol. 3 is the strongest volume so far for retro game enthusiasts who want to play some rarities and unreleased gems. At the same time, it's the weakest volume when it comes to having accessible fun.

The Pillar DLC is a step up from the previous expansion as it features more interesting visuals and a tense stormy atmosphere that brings on new challenges around the use of wind. Although the challenge tomb itself is still short, this new elemental theme and the battles at the end combine to make for a fairly fun albeit brief distraction.

You wouldn't expect a menu-based cooking sim to be fun but Cook, Serve, Delicious! 2!! will keep you and a pal entertained for hours.

If you want a retro-inspired arcade-style platformer then Job the Leprechaun offers tight albeit easy gameplay with plenty of cool twists.

With so many cooperative games on the market, Gelly Break is an easily forgettable and often frustrating experience but it does feature enough unique gameplay mechanics and clever stage designs to make mastering its campaign a rewarding endeavour.

Puzzle game enthusiasts who enjoy slowly piecing together tile-based puzzles will definitely love what Pipe Push Paradise has to offer. I just wish it featured more content such as a multiplayer component because they could have done so much more with its gameplay.

If you're looking for a competitive shmup and perhaps already played Rival Megagun then you'll absolutely love Twinkle Star Sprites. Its lovely presentation, hilarious characters, exhilarating gameplay, and addictive mechanics make it a must-have shoot 'em up.

Holy Potatoes! We're In Space?! offers a brilliant premise along with addictive gameplay that'll keep you hooked as you explore galaxy after galaxy. If you enjoy strategic battles and management games with a side of fries, this is a game for you.

With so much violence in gaming, it feels nice to give out hugs for a change. However, iHUGU is still a fairly basic and repetitive game.

At Sundown is an innovative and enjoyable competitive shooter but it could definitely use more balancing and finer tuned online play.

It's been years since it debuted but Mark of the Ninja is as much fun now as it's ever been so if you've never had the pleasure to play it then getting this new Remastered version is a good excuse to finally do so.

It appears to be an adequate shooter but even skilled shoot 'em up veterans will find Mars: Chaos Menace to be a frustrating mess.

With an enjoyable medieval setting and intuitive real-time strategy gameplay, 8-Bit Hordes is an easy to recommend game for anyone with a fondness for the genre. Watching little soldiers and monsters beat the tar out of each other is just the icing on the cake.

The hallucination sequence and challenge tomb in The Nightmare give this pack the most character out of all the DLC so far. Unfortunately, it's still very short and lacks any meaningful combat scenarios or character development.

I can only recommend Sleepin' Deeply to those who absolutely loved the original and just can't get enough Suicide Guy. The lack of unique levels and their bloated size definitely makes it inferior to the first game.

If you're a fan of competitive puzzlers then ACA NeoGeo: Puzzle Bobble is a fun albeit simplistic old-school entry in the genre. Because it's the first game in the series, don't expect to see many bells and whistles after giving it a download.

Those who enjoy quirky fun puzzle games will surely appreciate what City Builder has to offer. It may not be the most polished puzzler ever made but what's here is still a fantastic blend of Pipe Mania gameplay and city construction.

If Animal Super Squad's gameplay was tightened up and it offered more of a challenge then it would be as fun as it is funny.

8-Bit Invaders is a solid finale to a fantastic trilogy of accessible RTS games. It doesn't deviate much from the other 2 games but when the core gameplay is as fun and intuitive as it is, simply having more stages to master within a new theme is enough.

Evoland and its clever riff on gaming culture and history is perfect for long-time gamers while Evoland 2 is a fantastic RPG that belongs in the top echelon of indie games. However, this bundle is currently held back by bugs that will hopefully be ironed out soon.

Although Puzzle Bobble 2 is definitely a step up from the barebones original, it isn't much of an improvement. Obviously, that doesn't mean that it isn't fun because it surely is, especially if you have a local chum to enjoy it with.

Although Necrosphere Deluxe features simplified yet challenging 2D platforming gameplay, it's a very short game that can be a bit too frustrating at times. On the plus side, the '80s synth soundtrack is absolutely fantastic.

Agartha-S reminded me of the times I'd blindly rent a NES game as a kid then become pleasantly surprised upon playing it. It's truly a hidden gem for Switch and I highly recommend it whether you're into retro-style games or just looking to play something unique.

If you're looking for a local multiplayer game to add to your collection then Stunt Kite Party is a fantastic competitive party game that'll keep a couch full of chums entertained. However, don't expect to play it solo because it's simply not as fun.

Considering #killallzombies released about 5 years ago, you'd expect it to have some sort of longevity to deserve a Switch port but instead, it's a by-the-numbers twin-stick roguelike that you'll probably forget about shortly after giving it a few tries.

It feels like a strange game at first but once you realise what Mercury Race expects from its players, you'll definitely have a good time.

Food Truck Tycoon is a simplistic restaurant management game that can be fun if you're looking to pass the time while waiting for a bus or something. However, it definitely won't keep you engaged for long with its basic gameplay and goofy presentation.

It may be a simplistic game but Estiman offers enough variety and presentational flair to keep you trying to beat your high score.

Having the ability to play a Commander Keen game on a modern console is fantastic. However, Keen Dreams is far from the best that the series has to offer so here's hoping that we get to enjoy the commander's other adventures soon.

The Price of Survival is by far the most impressive DLC pack yet as it features multiple challenging and visually interesting puzzles that are wrapped in a plot which actually integrates into the main story impressively well.

Mastering the incredibly tough stages in KYUB is a feat fit for a gaming wizard but thankfully, the journey can be fun for everyone.

Percy's Predicament Deluxe is a simplistic take on stage-based marble-rolling gameplay but it's very rough around the edges.

Although it looks and sounds great, Klondike Solitaire is still very basic and it lacks touchscreen support which is just silly.

It may be a simple game but working through Love's tricky stages is pretty fun. I just wish there were more of them to master.

Puzzle fans will find a lot to love in Minesweeper Genius. The amount of enjoyable gameplay and replay value is downright fantastic.
