really expensive but would alweays remember the family times we have had with it

‘Arms' brings back the fun of the Nintendo Wii, but it's most fun if you don't take it too seriously.

Surprising depth; nuance and strategy; Motion controls are a lot of fun; Good variety of modes keeps things interesting; Tons of unlockable Arms will keep completionists busy

Controls aren't precise enough for fast fights; AI takes advantage of control scheme issues; No remappable buttons

Arms is a strange, endearing little game. Emphasis on the little. It's the newest game from Nintendo, a sorta marquee title for the Nintendo Switch. Already heralded as "the Splatoon for fighting games," there's a lot riding on the game. And surprisingly, many, many ways to play it.

Arms is one of Nintendo's new franchises in years and it works well, and Nintendo keeps pushing out content updates that keep improving the game with stages, characters and arms. this game's VS mode on the same screen is fun time as it is playable in table top and on the TV.

I am torn concerning ARMS on the Nintendo Switch. There are things I like about this game, and there are things I absolutely despise. I am very thankful Family Friendly Gaming purchased this fighting game after the failures of the PR and Marketing firm working for Nintendo.

Nintendo's newest IP lands on the Switch. Is it an instant classic? Our review.

Colorful cast of memorable characters; Intriguing new premise; Motion controls are a dream

Can feel repetitious when played for long stretches

Most fighting games are cut from the same cloth as trailblazers like Street Fighter II and Virtua Fighter , beholden to side-view perspectives and an array of melee and projectile attacks.

Welcome to an explosion of colour, whirring arms and massive weapons. The world of ARMS sounds like a joke that went too far, but it really works. Why are these people fighting with weird stretchy arms? What happened to everyone in this crazy world?

Lots of fun; Great with friends

Steep learning curve; Lack of content; Poor tutorials

Let's first take a look at what Nintendo's big new IP is all about. Arms is a fighting game where in 3D arenas you'll go up against a single opponent, and you'll beat up each other by using combination attacks, grabs, charged strikes and well, that's pretty much it, at least at first glance.

Solid and definitely has an audience. There could be some hard-to-ignore faults, but the experience is fun.
