However, several markets remained untapped even now almost three years later, as the hybrid console is set to penetrate the world's biggest gaming market out...
The upcoming Mega Man collection featuring X's buddy Zero may be delayed, but at least Capcom's devs are packing in a ton of stuff to make up for it.

Platform: Nintendo Switch Genre: Nintendo-sanctioned Ghostbusters game doubling as Hotel Mario 2 It's rather surreal that a Nintendo game starring Mario's "lesser" brother ends up being the more charismatic and inventive one of the lot. As charming and as heroic Mario is, he's rather boring and seems all-too vanilla. You know he's going to win ...
When Mario Kart Tour was first announced, it generated a lot of hype and attention.
