[Review] Poi: Explorer Edition
Posted on 7 years ago by Jakob Vujovic(@jakovujo) in Reviews, Switch eShop | 10 Comments
System: Switch
Release date: October 24, 2017
Developer: PolyKid
Publisher: Alliance Digital Media
Poi is a tribute to the nearly forgotten exploratory 3D platformer. Nearly, that is, if 2017 hadn’t seen a sudden resurgence of the genre with Yooka-Laylee, A Hat in Time and, of course, Super Mario Odyssey. Poi isn’t inventive – it’s nostalgic to a fault. It hasn’t made strides to progress past Super Mario 64’s game flow of hub world-to-level-to-hub world. Even within that flow there aren’t many ideas or mechanics that haven’t already been thoroughly explored in past 3D Mario games, to the point where Poi stop being referential and becomes just plain derivative. Taken on these terms the game isn’t remarkable, but it’s not trying to be remarkable. It’s a throwback.

Maria The Witch coming to Switch soon, pre-load available in North America
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop | 3 Comments
The eShop has updated with a new game for Switch. As shown in a new listing on the store, Maria The Witch is coming soon. It should be available on November 9 for $4.99, assuming nothing changes.
In the game, you play as… Maria, who is a witch. You’ll need to navigate through a variety of stages and worlds. Different features are included such as a magnet that attracts items that are far away. We have more details and a trailer below.
What’s really interesting here is that Maria The Witch can be pre-loaded in North America. Pre-loading with third-party, indie releases isn’t something we’ve seen on Nintendo platforms a whole lot, especially on Switch. Hopefully it’s a sign of things to come.
