![]() ![]() ![]() One caveat is that all available players can block-switch, meaning your own progress will inevitably screw one of your compatriots. There are plenty of unique stages, and five were brought over from the original game. The gameplay doesn’t really differ from its predecessor, but the entire level is shown, so don’t play this in Handheld or Tabletop Mode because your eyes will start to bleed. New to me is Mighty Switch Force Academy, a multiplayer-focused version of the original game, where you can solo the whole thing or bring three friends along. Really, I’m just happy to see this game rescued from the Wii U, which now lives in a dark bedroom closet where it belongs. This game does offer up some new content in the form of harder versions of every stage (which unlock once you finish them all once) and a new unlockable look for Patty. Time has not been particularly kind to this remake’s HD art style, as the characters lack personality compared to their pixelated counterparts. If you’d like to replay Mighty Switch Force with a different, but not necessarily better, art style, check out 2012’s Mighty Switch Force: Hyper Drive Edition, which was a Wii U launch game (Review). Also of note, Mighty Switch Force 2 has maybe the best end-credits music I’ve ever heard in a video game. I enjoyed the game when it came out (Review) and my opinion hasn’t changed, although there’s a lot less block-switching than I remember. Mighty Switch Force 2 came out two years later on the 3DS, and they’ve switched up the gameplay significantly-Patricia Wagon is a firefighter now, and hoses things down while rescuing (rather than arresting) the Hooligan Sisters. It’s still a fantastic game by today’s standards, and the soundtrack, by Jake Kaufman, is radical. Nothing has changed aside from the visual clarity of the menu and tally screens, the original pixelated aesthetic remains in tact. The original Mighty Switch Force was a 2011 3DS eShop game I reviewed it back then (Review), as well as the short expansion. ![]()
