Paper Mario is coming to Nintendo Switch Online
Big Brain Energy. Web version | Unsubscribe Hi, here's issue #260 of Switch Weekly with the Nintendo things you need to know. I hope you've had a good week. Next week sees just under 15 games released. The full list is below as ever, along with links to find out more — releases include a revamped Sam & Max game, Monster Rancher 1 and 2, and a deckbuilding RPG called Loop Hero. Take a look. Thanks for reading, REVIEW Big Brain Academy: Brain vs. Brain — This lighthearted bit of end-year brain wrinkling is said to have enjoyable local multiplayer and smart passive online modes, making for an overall fun "if fleeting" game. Here's another review from Ryan Janes at Nintendo Insider, who calls it "an enjoyable – if familiar – assortment of challenging games" but adds that "you’ll see everything it has to offer within a day or two". Neal Ronaghan // Nintendo World Report Paper Mario joins Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack next week —Pleased to see this N64 gem coming to the service, and so soon too. My first Paper Mario game was the GameCube entry, so I'll be playing this Nintendo 64 original for the very first time. It's notable how, unlike with the NES and SNES libraries, this game is arriving on the service by itself. Flying solo kinda makes sense though — I think it's fair to say the N64 library isn't quite so extensive as its predecessors, so for them to plod along at even slower pace isn't surprising. John Friscia // Nintendo Enthusiast Nintendo updates policies to increase push for diversity REVIEW Beyond A Steel Sky: A nostalgic return to adventure gaming's golden age —"magically brings its 1994 ancestor back to life". Roland Ingram // Nintendo Life REVIEW Asterix & Obelix: Slap Them All —This brawler is "by no means perfect" and is described here as a touch shallow, but "at the same time, it is the best use of the beloved Asterix & Obelix property that we have seen in years". Matt S // Digitally Downloaded REVIEW Angry Video Game Nerd 1 & 2 Deluxe — "Both games feel like proper loving tributes to gaming’s past". Indie Gamer Chick Psychologists talk Animal Crossing: New Horizons 2.0 and keeping fun ahead of FOMO Kate Gray // Nintendo Life It's time for game makers to start seeing the world in two colours —Takes a look at games, their colour palettes, and colour blindness. Edward Hawkes // Eurogamer Thrills, chills, kills: Everything Switch owners should know about the Danganronpa series Donald Theriault // Nintendo World Report How my lockdown obsession with Super Smash Bros led me to a vital epiphany Tom Regan // The Guardian I don’t want Mario Kart 9 yet, and neither should you Nathan Ellingsworth // Pocket Tactics I can't enjoy the new 'Grand Theft Auto' because I'm old now Joel Golby // Vice Nintendo’s approach to DLC is frustrating Video games won’t get better unless we let them
