Modeled after Link's Awakening this Amiibo is super glossy and exactly as he appears in the game. It may not be as intricate as other Amiibo, but it is certainly high-quality. I love it!

It's a neat concept. Assemble your ship and scan it into the game for your own customized experience. This Nintendo Switch version of Starlink includes characters from the Star Fox franchise. And yes, it does come with the game inside the box. Everything you need to begin playing is there.
It's a pretty long game, and not too difficult. But after a while the levels and objectives might begin to feel repetitive. I enjoyed the graphics and the story. This game is fun for any anyone who likes space and ships. It's a must-have for fans of Star Fox. Don't pass this one up.

You can even sink hours into making designs to personalize your house, island, or clothes. There is just so much to do in this game. It's slow paced and fun. Just a high quality title by Nintendo. There's a reason this game is a smash hit. You will not be disappointment picking this up. People of any age or skill level will be able to enjoy it.

It's Tom Nook in his Island getup. It's made of durable material and it has a sticky back so you can stick it to anything. Exactly 2 inches tall so a pretty good size. It's thick, not a flat sticker. The colors are bright and clear. They match with the actual colors of the character. Overall this is a pretty cool accessory to have.

This is the Drowned Tome edition so it comes with a few extras inside the case. You get a small map and a code to download the soundtrack, as well as a two sided poster and a manual. The game plays like a metroidvania. A side scroller where you make your way through the stage killing all the enemies and finding and using numerous weapons. the game is kind of dark, as in most everything is colored black and difficult to make out if you're playing in handheld mode. But this is a great, well reviewed game. A must play!

This game is hard but totally worth the learning curve. You control a girl who uses a fishing rod to get around. Think the Legend of Zelda hookshot, but bouncier. It's a platformer that's physics based, you need to let out slack on your fishing rod to bounce and get the momentum to propel yourself higher. Then release to launch yourself higher in the stage. The graphics are the only drawback. The game itself doesn't look like the cover, it's mostly cartoony pixelated environments. This game is hard and challenging so be prepared. Once you get the mechanics down this game will worm it's way into your heart and you will become a fan of the series for life.

The monkey ball games are a nostalgic piece of gaming history. A tried and true formula that anyone can play. The genre is that of a marble game. You roll around the track as an adorable character in a ball (marble) while collecting bananas. This game however is a remake of an older title originally released for the Wii. The developers barely changed anything for this port and as a result the controls are not suited to the switch. They even took out content in the form of mini games. Originally there were 50 now there's only 10. This game is still a lot of fun, but I would say pick this game up only if you can find it at a discount. It's not worth full price.
Control the Servant Nero Claudius and protect the regalia in Fate/Extella: The Umbral Star for the PlayStation 4. Fast-paced game play and a series of bizarre movements make this game unique.

An interesting beat em' up. The characters are creative and well thought out. It's a pretty cool game when you allow yourself to get into it. I would recommend it.

They changed the formula a bit for this one. It's still an rpg but also feels more like a dynasty warriors game. It's a bit slow. I prefer the other games in the series but this was an ok game. A worthwhile pick up if you're a fan of the series.

This game stays true to its formula. WarioWare Gold has you doing microgames; which are short tasks like chopping a vegetable, jumping over an obstacle, skiing down a hill, answering a question, doing a picture puzzle, etc.
It sounds simple, with each microgame taking about 4 seconds to complete, but with each round things get faster and trickier. Mess up four times and it's game over.
Being on the 3ds you will be using the stylus, blowing into the mic, tilting the 3ds, and of course using the d-pad and buttons.
This game is rated E for everyone, but Wario has a persona like no other so expect his crude humor to be front and center.
This is a full retail priced game. The story mode is short, however playing until you unlock every microgame (there are 300 of them!) plus unlocking all the bonus games and collectables will have you playing for hours.
