Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics ($49.99)

For 90s fans of Marvel, Capcom, and fighting games, Capcom's Marvel-based fighting games were a dream come true. Beginning with the excellent X-Men: Children of the Atom, the series consistently improved, expanding to the wider Marvel universe with Marvel Super Heroes, then the groundbreaking Marvel/Street Fighter crossovers, culminating in the iconic Marvel vs. Capcom and the wildly popular Marvel vs. Capcom 2. This Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics captures this golden era, also including Capcom's classic Punisher beat 'em up. A truly fantastic collection of titles!

This compilation shares many features with the Capcom Fighting Collection, including an unfortunately limited single save state for all seven games. While inconvenient for fighting games, it's particularly problematic for the Punisher beat 'em up, hindering independent progress saving. However, the collection otherwise delivers as expected: extensive visual filters, gameplay customization options, a wealth of art and a music player, and smooth rollback online multiplayer. The inclusion of NAOMI hardware emulation is a welcome addition, resulting in a superb Marvel vs. Capcom 2 experience.

While not a criticism, I wish some home console versions were included. The PlayStation EX versions of the tag-team games offer unique differences, and the Dreamcast Marvel vs. Capcom 2 boasts enjoyable extras beneficial for solo players. Adding Capcom's two Super NES Marvel titles, despite their imperfections, would have enhanced the collection's completeness. However, the "Arcade Classics" designation is accurately applied here.

This collection is a must-have for Marvel and fighting game enthusiasts. The games are exceptional, meticulously preserved, and complemented by a robust selection of extras and options. The single shared save state is a significant drawback, but otherwise, it's a nearly flawless compilation. Marvel vs. Capcom Fighting Collection: Arcade Classics is another triumph from Capcom, offering a superb experience on the Switch.

SwitchArcade Score: 4.5/5

Yars Rising ($29.99)

Initially, I was skeptical about this Metroidvania-style Yars game. My fondness for the original Yars' Revenge made WayForward's concept—a young, bare-midriff hacker code-named Yar—seem incongruous. However, the game itself is surprisingly good. WayForward's expertise shines through; the visuals and audio are excellent, the gameplay is smooth, and level design is well-executed. While boss battles sometimes overstay their welcome, it's a minor flaw.

WayForward admirably attempts to bridge the gap between this new game and the classic single-screen shooter. Yars' Revenge-style sequences are frequent, abilities evoke the original, and the lore is surprisingly well-integrated. Despite this effort, the connection feels strained. The game seems to cater to two largely disparate audiences, raising questions about the design choice versus creating something entirely original.

Regardless of its conceptual inconsistencies, Yars Rising is enjoyable. While it may not challenge genre titans, it provides a satisfying Metroidvania experience for a weekend playthrough. Perhaps future installments will better integrate the disparate elements.

SwitchArcade Score: 4/5

Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland ($24.99)

My nostalgia for Rugrats is limited, though I'm familiar with the characters and theme song. Therefore, I approached Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland with an open mind. The game's crisp visuals immediately impressed, surpassing my memories of the show's animation. While the initial control scheme felt awkward, adjustable options remedied this. The game features Reptar coins, simple puzzles, and enemies, following a standard platformer formula.

Unexpectedly, the game's gameplay strongly resembles Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA). Each character (Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, and Lil) has unique jumping abilities, mirroring the original game's distinct character mechanics. Enemies can be picked up and thrown, and blocks must be manipulated to navigate levels. The levels are somewhat non-linear, emphasizing verticality, and feature elements like sand-digging, cleverly utilizing each character's strengths.

The game also offers selectable visuals and soundtracks, allowing players to choose between modern and 8-bit styles. Both versions are well-executed, each with its own charm. The inclusion of multiplayer adds further value. My only complaints are its brevity and simplicity.

Rugrats: Adventures in Gameland exceeded expectations. It's a high-quality platformer inspired by Super Mario Bros. 2, enhanced with unique features. The Rugrats license is effectively integrated, though voice acting in cutscenes would have been a welcome addition. While short, it's a worthwhile experience for platformer fans and Rugrats enthusiasts alike.

SwitchArcade Score: 4/5
