[Review] Olympic Games Tokyo 2020: The Official Videogame
Posted on 3 years ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 22, 2021
Developer: SEGA
Publisher: SEGA
Some people eat, sleep and breathe sports. I’m not one of those people, but even I can appreciate the Olympics and what they represent – the coming together of cultures, the excitement of seeing the best athletes in the world compete against each other, and of course, all of the associated spectacle. I decidedly do not enjoy, however, the decidedly average minigame collections that typically get churned out every few years to tie in with the event. That is why I’m thrilled to report that not only is Olympic Games Tokyo 2020: The Official Videogame an excellent Olympics game, but it is also one of the best pick-up-and-play sports games I’ve experienced in a long time.

SEGA is revisiting the classic roots of the Super Monkey Ball with Super Monkey Ball: Banana Mania. The Switch release is remastering content from Super Monkey Ball, Super Monkey Ball 2, and Super Monkey Ball Deluxe.
In the initial trailer for Banana Mania, fans noticed that a new jump ability was shown off – something that wasn’t included in the original titles. That caused some concern for longtime players. Fortunately, it’s not something that you’ll be forced to used.
