Review by Matt S. It has been a big year for retro collections on Nintendo Switch. Capcom’s weighed in with two excellent ones (Street Fighter collection and the Beat ’em Up Bundle), SEGA’s got a pack of a huge pile of its classics on the horizon, and Nintendo’s paid online…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Death Mark offers a very uniquely Japanese sense of horror. Not only because it borrows its stories from very common Japanese urban legends, but also because it weaves into its narrative a deep sense of tragedy and sadness. And it’s brilliant at it. I rarely find…

Taiko no Tatsujin, the acclaimed Japanese rhythm game featuring many little drums who could, has finally had a localisation on both Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4.
