Level-5 is back with another commercial for The Snack World: Trejarers Gold, this one clocking in at 90-seconds in length. Check it out below.

System: Switch
Release date: April 3, 2018
Developer: Nippon Ichi
Publisher: NIS America


Penny-Punching Princess checks all the right boxes in things I love: it’s got arcade-inspired gameplay in which you’ll brawl your way through dungeons (or castles) in a level, a section by section format that is reminiscent of classics like Double Dragon or Streets of Rage, a simple light and heavy attack button that you can mix and match for combos, and a very straight-forward approach in how to complete each level. Racking up points and cash so you can bribe, upgrade, and loot your way to victory is also an intriguing element, and the adorable pixel art style looks nice. However, all of the enjoyment is quickly interrupted thanks to non-intuitive controls, uninspired levels, repetitive gameplay, and a story that’s so banal and aimless you’ll find yourself either falling asleep to the dialogue or skipping the text entirely.

Dragon Marked For Death

Dragon Marked for Death was announced for Switch last August. After it was initially lined up to launch this past winter, Inti Creates delayed the title to sometime in 2018.

Dragon Marked for Death is finally back in the news, as Inti Creates has confirmed its appearance for PAX East 2018. Indeed: those who are attending the expo will be able to try out the game. Gal*Gun 2 will also have a playable demo on Switch at PAX.

For those who missed the original announcement, Dragon Marked for Death is a dark fantasy style action RPG. Though you can play it alone, it also supports up to four users online and locally. Many prominent staff members from the Mega Man Zero and Mega Man ZX series are working on the project.

GameXplain has uploaded a new video comparing the load times between Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze running on the Switch and on the Wii U. As you might expect, the game seems to be running noticeably faster on the Switch.

It is important to keep in mind that the Switch version of the game is still pre-release. Additionally, loading speeds vary depending on whether a physical or digital copy is being used. The video tests the Switch version against the physical and digital Wii U version.

The video also shows some of the cosmetic, Funky Kong-inspired changes made to the menu. Take a look below:
