Been trying to get my hands on the English cover I am Setsuna game for years but prices in Europe are ridiculous, but got lucky on a reasonably priced one a few days ago, and so goes for a copy of the non german rated copy of Oninaki, so my trilogy of the now defunct Tokyo RPG Factory is complete. 💖

Not had a chance to try Fast Striker yet since it just arrived.

Gunlord X isn't a full shmup (although it does have shmup stages), but it's a really good run 'n' gun.

Things got a little wild with Razion Ex at its initial release and the hype for it got kind of out of hand, but is still a very strong horizontal scroller.

Gunvein is just all round excellent, although I don't think NG Dev had much to do with the game design on this one.

I also have Ghost Blade, which I think was made by a lot of the same people, but isn't an actual NG Dev title.

Overall, pretty cool output from these guys and delighted to have them all physical!

Thanks to @2005KaijuFan, I finally got my hands on a physical copy of Brain Training on Switch, and it was a decent price!!! 😭😭 I was devastated when my DS copy finally crapped out cuz I played that game daily and I loved it so much. This is actually the best mail day of my life.

@2005KaijuFan I hope your pillow is cold on both sides for the rest of your life. This is the best day ever.

Picked these up this week because of discounts otherwise it's way too expensive where I live lol

Also the two Galaxy amiibos are HUGE didnt expect them to be this big lol (probably gonna take them out of the boxes, I have a feeling they wont fit on my shelf)

Hey everyone, just wanted to share my latest pickup! Finally received my physical copy of Fast Striker EX for the Switch. (The second copy is a present for a good Friend)

As a big fan of arcade shoot 'em ups, I'm super excited to add an NG:DEV title to my Switch collection.
The fact that there is no USK age rating anywhere on the box – making it completely clean for the shelf –

Can't wait to test out the training mode and try to chase some high scores at a smooth 60 fps. Anyone else lucky enough to grab a copy before it temporarily sold out?

Awwww man. I can't believe as a major fighting game lover I missed out on this. Going back and grabbing fighting games I missed. Started here with this one. RWBY, BlazBlue, Guilty Gear, Under Night ain-Birth and Persona all in one game? Holy smokes! What a cast of characters.

A 2v2 anime crossover fighting game developed by Arc System Works. It brings together characters from massive franchises, including BlazBlue, Persona 4 Arena, Under Night In-Birth, and Rooster Teeth’s RWBY.

Streamlines traditional, complex fighting game controls into an accessible, five-button layout, while maintaining deep tactical mechanics built around managing two characters simultaneously. As a Tekken, MK and SF player, wasn't hard to get used to. Then again I grew up on SNK fighting games as well.

Unlike traditional fighting games where you focus entirely on inputs, BBTAG is built entirely around maximizing team synergy.

* Casual players can easily string together flash attacks by repeatedly mashing either the Light (Y) or Heavy (X) attack buttons.

* By spending your Cross Gauge, both your active character and partner fight on screen at the exact same time. This lets you "sandwich" the opponent, making your attacks incredibly difficult to block.

* If one of your two characters is defeated, you can activate this power-up for your remaining fighter. It temporarily regenerates health, boosts damage, and increases your super meter. (Crazy clutch in deep long battles)

The Nintendo Switch edition features a comprehensive suite of single-player and multiplayer modes:

* Episode Mode: An original crossover story mode tracking the characters as they collide in a phantom dimension.

* Tactics Mode: An extensive tutorial system that teaches both universal combat mechanics and character-specific combos.

* Online Lobby: Connects you to public rooms where you can run around as a chibi avatar and challenge global players.

Definitely a fun game to pick up. Grabbed the other games Blazblue has to offer and Entropy that I'll be playing soon.

Consensus Score:

79/100 😏

Went to Target in the hopes of finding a new Xbox game, only to raid their clearance section. Second pair is for a friend who got a little excited when I told him about the prices.

Just bought dragon quest vii reimagined sealed from my local target which seems to be going under a big overhaul in their electronics department and when I opened it up, I saw that the cartridge was upside down… was scared someone somehow swapped out the cartridge shell but sticking it in my switch 2 had the game download as normal so no tomfoolery here, but i still found it weird that a brand new game would be like this…
