Game Review: My Hero One’s Justice 2 (Switch)
Video games adapted from anime typically fall in to the curse of being shallow and My Hero One’s Justice 2 is no exception. Although there are some great anime games such as Dragon Ball FighterZ or Dragon Ball Z Kakarot that don’t fall into this curse, My Hero One’s Justice 2 is sadly not one of them. Instead, the game lacks any creativity and was clearly rushed out in order to be released during the currently airing season of the anime it’s based on. It’s quite disappointing to see that this game was just another generic anime arena fighter as a video game based on the My Hero Academia series could potentially be amazing with how unique the series is.

Game Review: Luigi’s Mansion 3 (Switch)
When Luigi’s Mansion was released on the GameCube back in 2001 to huge critical acclaim and commercial success, it showed that it wasn’t just Mario that could carry a game. And yet Nintendo have been incredibly slow at releasing more games from the Super Mario franchise where Mario ISN’T the main character. It took them 12 years to give Luigi his first sequel and now FINALLY, he is back on his third solo outing with Luigi’s Mansion 3.
Game Review: Star Wars Pinball (Switch)
Every so often, you might find yourself yearning for something to unwind with on the Nintendo Switch. That can be challenging without an Animal Crossing game on the system for now – and with most Switch titles being 30-hour epics or plain shovelware, it might be difficult to find something you can pick up without the obligation to complete it. This was the dilemma I found myself in, until I experienced Star Wars Pinball.
