What is it? An adventure where you spend your days tending a shop, and nights fighting through various dungeons to free the town and find things to sell in said shop. In fact, when you buy Bayonetta 2 you actually go one better, because you get the original game thrown in for free too. The game looks stunning regardless, and if you’re an action game fan in the slightest you owe it to yourself to play Bayonetta 2. Although it’s a shame the resolution is locked to 720p, even on your TV, it doesn’t detract from the fact it’s a better game than it was on Wii U, even if you look at the major frame rate improvements alone.

This Switch release allows you to experience some of the most action-packed, brutal moments from the last decade of gaming wherever you want. Although, when the heroine is a witch with magical hair and (literally) killer stilettos, you won’t really need an excuse not to. Why should you buy it? Originally released as a Wii U exclusive, Bayonetta 2 has now been re-released on Switch, and it means that you now have no excuses not to play it. What is it? An exhilarating hack ’n’ slash adventure. (Image credit: Nintendo, Sega, Platinum Games) If you're looking for something to make you smile or brighten up your day, then look no further. And when you want to take a break from the platforming, you can even take a breather at Waddle Dee Town, with mini-games and side activities galore. With boss fights, puzzles, and a variety of foes to take on with Kirby's slate of copy abilities, Forgotten Land also introduces the new Mouthful Mode skill that allows you to become a car, cone, water balloon, and much more besides to progress. The platforming is more open, so you can take the time to explore and make the most of the pink puffball's first proper step into the realm of 3D. Taking place in a mysterious world setting that's made up of wonderfully creative stages, every level hides plenty of secrets and eye-catching sights that you'll want to experience for yourself. Why should you buy it? Kirby and the Forgotten Land takes you on a memorable adventure packed full of delightful features, challenges, and new standout additions. Right from the start, the remake of Link’s Awakening on the Nintendo Switch is so much better than the original.What is it? Kirby's first fully 3D platforming adventure featuring more open stages and Mouthful Mode Say what you will about the Game Boy, but wow the sound on that thing was bad. I guess I enjoyed Link’s Awakening, but when I think back on it, what I remember most is the grating music and bad graphics, which far outweighed the fun I was having with the game’s puzzles and combat.

And then I accidentally hit the touch screen and exited the game without saving, losing hours of progress. I made it to the final dungeon and after hours of trying to figure it out, I finished it to get the final instrument (after two attempts on the boss). Years later, I played it again in college through the Nintendo 3DS’s Virtual Console. I don’t think I ever made it to the second dungeon. The remake of Link’s Awakening on the Nintendo Switch is so much better than the originalĪlthough I played it a bunch of times (it was one of a few games I had for the Game Boy), I never got very far.

I couldn’t wrap my young brain around it, especially without a guide to help me figure out where to go and what to do next. I remember playing Link’s Awakening on a green Game Boy Color as a 5-year-old kid and being confused. The remake of The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening is so charming, it made me love a game that I previously had almost nothing but frustrating memories of.
