Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD for Nintendo Switch Review

Hey ghost-hunters and treasure-seekers!

Grab your Poltergusts, because Luigi is back in Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD on the Nintendo Switch! As a long-time fan of this series, from the spooky days of the original on the GameCube to the thrills of the arcade version at my local Dave and Busters, I was super excited to dive into this HD remake. Spoiler alert: It’s adorable, funny, and full of ghostly goodies!

Nostalgia Overload: From Original to HD

The original Luigi’s Mansion 2, also known as Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon, was released for the Nintendo 3DS on March 24, 2013. The thrill of exploring haunted mansions, sucking up ghosts with Luigi’s trusty Poltergust, and solving spooky puzzles was an absolute delight. The arcade version, which you can still find at places like Dave and Busters, took it to another level by letting you wield a Poltergust and enjoy co-op ghost-hunting adventures with friends. The tactile experience of holding the actual vacuum-like weapon and the added excitement of multiplayer made it a standout experience. read more

Wish I Didn’t Buy Whisker Waters Even When It Is On Sale. What a Horrid Game Even For Cat Loving Gamer Girls Like Me.

Whisker Waters for the Nintendo Switch had a lot of potential as a cute, engaging life simulation game centered around cats and fishing. Unfortunately, it falls short in several critical areas.

Despite its promise of unique fishing mechanics and a charming world populated by cats, bears, and birds, the game is plagued by numerous technical issues and design flaws. The controls are notoriously clunky, making the gameplay experience frustrating. The character customization is extremely limited—you can’t make your character look like your cats (at least I couldn’t come close to my two pretty average domestic shorthair tabbies), choose a gender, or even name your character, which detracts from the personalization aspect that many players, including myself, value highly in life simulation games. read more

Times and Galaxy Demo Review for Nintendo Switch

A Clunky Yet Charming Adventure for Aspiring Robot Reporters

I recently had the chance to dive into the demo of Times and Galaxy for Nintendo Switch, and I have some thoughts to share. This game offers an intriguing mix of customization and narrative choice but is hampered by some frustrating mechanics and uninspired design.

What I Liked:

• Customization Galore: Right off the bat, Times and Galaxy impressed me with its extensive customization options. You can tweak your robot’s colors, body shape, and even pronouns. It’s always a plus when a game lets you personalize your character to such a degree. read more

Paper Mario on Nintendo Switch: A Nostalgic Delight with Modern Twists

Disclaimer: I received a copy of Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door from Nintendo in exchange for an honest review.

As a longtime fan of the Paper Mario series, diving into the latest installment on the Nintendo Switch felt like reuniting with an old friend who’s picked up some cool new tricks. If you grew up loving the original Paper Mario on the N64, you’re in for a treat that’s both a heartfelt homage and an exciting evolution.

Graphics: A Paper-craft Paradise

First off, let’s talk about the graphics. The Switch version of Paper Mario is nothing short of a visual feast. The world is alive with vibrant colors and a stunning paper-craft aesthetic that makes every scene look like a meticulously crafted diorama. The attention to detail is simply astonishing – from the way Mario’s paper body folds and flips to the beautifully rendered environments that make you want to pause and take it all in. It’s a charming blend of nostalgia and modernity, capturing the essence of the original while pushing the boundaries with enhanced graphical capabilities. read more

    Fashion Dreamer Nintendo Switch Dressup Game Review

    Fashion Dreamer on the Nintendo Switch is a title that effortlessly marries the cute aesthetics of shojo and josei manga with an engaging dress-up simulation. The game sets itself apart with an extensive avatar customization system, allowing for a broad range of facial details, although body customization is less varied.

    The digital world within Fashion Dreamer is a futuristic cityscape, reminiscent of animated interpretations of the internet, where you interact with Muses to shape the trends of the virtual fashion world. read more

    Review of Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical (Nintendo Switch Version)

    When I first heard about *Stray Gods: The Roleplaying Musical*, my excitement was palpable. Being an ardent admirer of David Gaider’s work with Dragon Age, and given my penchant for musicals, the concept of a roleplaying game that integrates musical elements sounded like a dream come true.

    The narrative of *Stray Gods* drew me in immediately. Playing as Grace, tasked with proving her innocence against the accusation of murdering the last muse, while navigating the world of Greek gods, is nothing short of exhilarating. The stakes are high, the drama is palpable, and the narrative choices make for a deeply immersive experience. Each choice influencing the story’s progression, especially in the musical lyrics, adds a whole new layer of depth, resonating with the musical lover in me. read more

    Charade Maniacs Nintendo Switch Otome Game Review

    Oh my gosh, Charade Maniacs Otome for Nintendo Switch is like a whirlwind of excitement, romance, and total mystery! 🌟💖

    First of all, the art by Teita, who also worked on Norn 9 (another fave of mine!), is absolutely fab! You get to see characters from different angles – front, side, back, and their faces are even animated. Though I have to say, their hands looked kinda weird, and the bodies were a bit too stiff for my liking. Still, I’d rate the art like 4 out of 5 stars – way better than some newer games like Jack Jeanne. read more

    First off, can we talk about the music and voice acting in this game? Absolute chef’s kiss! 🎵 The voice actors really bring the characters to life, while the music just wraps everything up in an audacious symphony of emotion.

    And the characters, oh my stars! They’re as vibrant as a new day sunrise, each with their own sparkling personality that makes you want to get to know them better. Personally, I couldn’t choose between Suzu and Neji, they both stole my gamer girl heart! 💖 read more

    Made In The Abyss Nintendo Switch Game Review

    I became intrigued by Made In The Abyss for Nintendo Switch when I read a headline on another game review website that said “Don’t let your kids near this game” and they hyped it up to be quite horrifying. Despite the cute graphics, they promised that the game was deeply disturbing.

    I don’t find it THAT disturbing yet… but your mileage may vary. The game is based on an anime by the same name which I have not yet watched. The anime is supposedly so disturbing that it is illegal in Canada? I read that in the comments on this other gaming site. read more
