Micro Reviews

There are so many great games out there, but there are some titles that are a bit iffy. So today I'm gonna go through a few of them and give my little review of each to help you figure out what you should play and what you shouldn't. Welcome to Nintendo GamePoint+ Micro Reviews.

These reviews are more simplistic. Covering some of the important points of each game and having the same grading scale, but are smaller compared to the big game reviews. Also, this doesn't mean that the games covered here won't be given big reviews later. This is just a way to talk about some smaller games or give my general opinions on big games that I didn't/haven't given a full review for.

I hope you guys like this new formula and let me know if what games you want to see in these Micro Reviews in the comments below.

10 Wii U Games I Want on Switch (NO SMASH ALLOWED!!!)

UPDATE: #1 CAME TRUE!!! I knew this was gonna happen, and we get a brand new third game to go with it. DREAMS COME TRUE, and don't let anyone tell you different.  P.S. The follow-up to this list (Games I Don't Want Ported) is coming soon. Also 2 Year-End lists, Micro Review, and a Totally Off Tangent are coming soon as well. So I hope your excited for Bayonetta 1-3 on Switch and I hope you stay tuned. There will be more where this came from. 

While the Wii U wasn't the success story that Nintendo wanted it still had a lot of good games that I loved and I thought deserved some new life on Switch. So I wanted to put a list of games that I thought truly deserved a port to the Nintendo Switch. That proved to be harder than I thought.

The ultimate issue with making this list was a combination of either Nintendo/Third Parties porting the games I wanted before/after I made a list (ex. MK8 DX), or they make games similar to games that were on Wii U. (Fire Emblem Warriors) Its also a little hard to think of whether a game should get a port or a full-fledged sequel. (Splatoon 2)

You can start to see an issue with making this list when the people you want to help make said list come true...
...make the list come true before you even finish the list.



With all of that said, I feel like I finally made a list of games that were originally on Wii U that would be awesome to port to Switch. I think for this list I need to point out that these titles aren't in too much of a particular order. So dear readers, this is...

Super Mario Odyssey Review

For a while, Nintendo had only one game this year that could've been Game Of The Year. Obviously that game being Zelda: Breath of the Wild. That game got 10/10's all across the board including from EDGE Magazine. From my research EDGE only gives 10/10's average about once a year. So yeah, for a while Zelda seemed to be a real goodchoice for GOTY. Until...


Now obviously there are many worthy contenders for GOTY in 2017. The only thing I'm saying is that for a while we kinda thought that Zelda would've been the obvious choice for Nintendo. Now we have Super Mario Odyssey in this friendly competition, and the choice between the two is going to be a little bit harder. So with that said, lets see how well this game stacks up.

P.S. This review won't spoil anything too major.
