Switch Weekly - Fire Emblem is engaging

Web version · Unsubscribe

REVIEW Fire Emblem Engage: Tactical genius with plenty of spirit — "it’s hard to imagine this fantastical tale won’t be included in game of the year talks later in 2023".

James Daly // Gaming Bible

Has Switch run out of steam - Does it need a next-gen successor? — A good discussion on the current issues Nintendo's hybrid is facing in terms of ports, suggesting that the base level at which third-party developers are now looking to work at cross-platform has moved beyond the Switch.

Digital Foundry // YouTube

REVIEW Persona 3 Portable — "probably the best game in the Persona series, even if it feels a little dated at times".

Oliver Brandt // Vooks

REVIEW Persona 4 Golden — "a thoroughly enjoyable and engrossing RPG. [..] Although its visuals might be a bit dated, the gameplay and story presented here do more than enough to justify the purchase".

Mitch Vogel // Nintendo Life

nOS — Nintendo Operating System — What if you could use your Switch as a personal computer? That's what 'nOS' from Red Deer Games is offering. Looks fun — the sorta thing I think I woulda loved when I was kid. It's out next week.

Gulikit's 'Hall Joystick' promises to eliminate drifing for your Switch Joy-Con — Very curious to try these "no drift" sticks.

Ollie Reynolds // Nintendo Life

REVIEW A Space for the Unbound review – Indonesian school adventure has a fantastical twist — "demonstrates a flair for the dramatic and will keep you guessing right up to the end". Joe DeVader at Nintendo World Report calls it a "must play for those that enjoy getting an emotional experience from their games".

Lewis Packwood // The Guardian

REVIEW NeverAwake

Kayleigh Partleton // Pocket Tactics

INTERVIEW Johan Vinet: It never occurred to me that LUNARK could be something else than a cinematic platformer — A chat with Johan Vinet, creator of the upcoming cinematic platformer LUNARK.

Bartek Wanot // Nindyki

Wahoo! Single-player Mario is pretty boring
