Best Nintendo Switch Games For Family Fun: Marvel Cosmic Invasion

During the March 27, 2025, episode of Nintendo Direct, fans got an exciting look at Marvel Cosmic Invasion, a 2D multiplayer beat 'em up that brings some of Marvel’s most iconic heroes together for action-packed gameplay. This upcoming title looks like a throwback to classic arcade games, and its four-player co-op mode makes it perfect for teaming up with family or friends. So if you're looking for another title to add to your family game night library... this is totally worth considering.

Could you imagine if they made a 4 player fight stick for this game? Trust me, if it were me... I would have a limited edition that includes a bad ass fight stick able to be used on multiple consoles + PC. Maybe 2,000 units to really drum up the nostalgia with this new beat 'em up! You know what... I'm going to run it by the Devs.

From what we’ve seen so far, Marvel Cosmic Invasion has a vibrant, comic book-inspired art style, fast-paced combat, and a variety of enemies to take down. The gameplay feels like it was pulled straight from the golden era of arcade brawlers, similar to classics like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Turtles in Time and X-Men: The Arcade Game. Expect button-mashing combos, special moves, and chaotic battles against waves of enemies. I even think I saw some juggling moves by way of the cosmic swap system.

While they haven’t confirmed the full roster yet, we can expect to play as 15 of our favorite Marvel superheroes. The game will likely feature plenty of iconic villains, intense boss fights, and interactive levels, adding to the overall fun and nostalgia. The main villain in MCI is Annihilus.

One of the most exciting features is its four-player co-op, which makes it easy to jump in and play with others. If you enjoy cooperative brawlers, this game looks like it will be a perfect addition to the Nintendo Switch library, offering the kind of fun that continues to build the family bond. It also gives your family time to fun it up together, and... use teamwork.

While the exact price hasn’t been announced, Marvel Cosmic Invasion is set to launch in Holiday 2025... and could possible have a similar price to 2022's TMNT: Shredder's Revenge. So Switch owners have plenty of time to get ready for some action-packed, arcade-style fun.

If you're a fan of classic beat 'em ups, Marvel superheroes, or multiplayer games, this is definitely one to keep an eye on. If you don't have a Switch, it's headed to Playstation, Xbox and PC!

Assassin's Creed Shadows: The Second Coming of Tenchu? Check it out!

Ubisoft's latest release, Assassin's Creed Shadows, marks a fresh yet nostalgic chapter in the long-running Assassin's Creed series. Shadows stands apart from its predecessors by diving deep into the covert artistry of feudal Japanese assassins, an era beloved by fans but never fully explored in this franchise... until now. But for gamers like myself... who grew up with stealth-action classics like Tenchu, Shadows feels eerily familiar in the best way possible.

Tenchu, a series that graced consoles decades ago, is remembered as the blueprint for stealth games set in Japan. It was a franchise where shadows were your allies and silence your weapon. Players infiltrated fortresses, crept across rooftops, and eliminated targets with graceful precision... all while avoiding detection. Fans of Tenchu have long yearned for its revival, and while Shadows isn’t a direct continuation, it feels like spiritual successor territory.

One thing that still cracks me up to this day... is the fact that targets would just go eat the poisoned onigiri/rice balls that you'd throw on the ground. There's a random meal sitting in the dirt, and they wander over like, "Oh great, dinner has arrived."

Anyway, Ubisoft has successfully captured Tenchu-like elegance within the expansive Assassin's Creed framework. With features such as grappling hooks, traditional Japanese weaponry like shurikens and kunai, and terrain that challenges your agility, it seems to pay homage to the classic Tenchu mechanics while modernizing them. The thrill of sneaking past patrolling samurai and infiltrating dimly lit castles will certainly ignite nostalgia for those who played Tenchu back in the day. That's coming from a Tenchu VET.

Of course, Ubisoft didn’t strip away the Assassin's Creed soul to make Shadows. Instead, it evolved the series’ signature elements to complement Japanese aesthetics. Parkour remains fluid but is adapted to steep temple roofs and bamboo forests. The immersive storytelling, filled with conspiracies and historical intrigue, intertwines perfectly with the code of the ninja. It’s a marriage of two worlds... Tenchu’s stealth and Assassin’s Creed’s vast, open-world adventure.

Additionally, Shadows dives deeper into the morality of being an assassin. Like Tenchu’s moral undertones of protecting innocents while dismantling corruption, Shadows incorporates Japanese honor and the balance between justice and vengeance. It's a thoughtful approach that fleshes out its protagonists as more than just killers.

For longtime Tenchu fans, Assassin’s Creed Shadows is a bittersweet experience. It evokes fond memories of a bygone franchise while paving the way for something fresh, although I'd support a new Tenchu entry in a... heartbeat. Ubisoft has masterfully blended nostalgia with innovation, delivering a stealth game that feels timeless yet modern. If Tenchu was the Jonin of Japanese stealth gaming, Shadows may well be a Genin carrying on its legacy.

So, as players don their hoods and embrace the shadows, one thing is certain... Ubisoft has crafted not just a game, but a title that feels like an homage to the art of stealth. Assassin's Creed Shadows reminds me of why I fell in love with sneaking through feudal Japan all those years ago.

In addition to the stealth action of Assassin's Creed Shadows, you also experience the intense, up-close combat of the blade-wielding real-life legend, Yasuke. This combination adds the perfect variety to the gameplay. And if you check out the map once you venture out and you spot pictures by "Baby Fury," that's me! That said, snap some cool pictures, get creative, and add to the fun! By the way, Assassin's Creed Shadows has achieved overwhelming success right out of the gate, and I’m excited to dive even deeper into the action to take on... The Shinbakufu. Anyway, if you get your hands on the game, stay on alert... and game on! (POOF!) [Vanished leaving behind a bag of gummies]

Urban Jungle: A Cozy PC Strategy Game... Perfect for Mobile?

Kylyk Games has crafted something truly cozy with Urban Jungle. This charming, point-and-click strategy game invites players into a world where the power of greenery meets clever puzzle-solving. With its vibrant art style, thoughtful mechanics, and heartwarming narrative, Urban Jungle is already a joy to experience on PC—but it feels like one of those games that would truly shine on a tablet.

If you’ve had the pleasure of playing Urban Jungle, you know it’s the kind of game that makes you want to kick back and relax to maximize your coziness. Strategically placing plants to meet various conditions like light, moisture, and placement proximity creates a gameplay rhythm that’s soothing yet engaging. Imagine enjoying this cozy experience while lounging in bed or curled up on the couch—no desk, chair, or mouse required.

Let's Link your tablet or phone!

Before you get all sad on me, you don't have to wait for Urban Jungle to be released on the App Store or Google Play! You can literally enjoy the game right now on Steam Deck or tablet. You can jump in and play on your Steam Deck... immediately after purchase and use the tablet screen, while on the flip side you can use Steam Link to enjoy it on your tablet. Here's how:

1. Download Steam Link: Install the Steam Link app from your device's app store (available for Android and iOS).
   
   
2. Connect to Your PC: Open the app and connect it to your PC running Steam. Make sure both devices are on the same Wi-Fi network.
   
   
3. Start Streaming: Once connected by way of a strong Wi-Fi connection, you can stream your Steam games directly to your tablet and play them as if you were on your PC.

In addition to the Steam Deck & Steam Link, this game would also be right at home on the Nintendo Switch. The tactile nature of touchscreen controls would only add to the charm of the experience.

One of the standout features of Urban Jungle is its soundtrack. The sound effects are pretty nice too. The gentle melodies and soothing ambient sounds create an atmosphere perfect for unwinding. As you progress through the levels, each stage introduces subtle shifts in music and effects that tie beautifully into the evolving environments and challenges. This isn't something I want to sit at a desk and play.

The storyline is another highlight, weaving a tale that is both relatable and heartfelt. The main character’s love for plants is rooted in fond childhood memories with her grandmother—a bond that blossomed as they cared for plants together before her mother moved away to pursue her career. This narrative adds layers of depth and emotional resonance to the gameplay, sparking reflections on family, connection, and the beauty of finding joy in simple things.

Kylyk Games has already nailed the formula for a cozy, thought-provoking game, but expanding its reach would be nice for iPad, Android, and Fire tablet owners. Not everyone has a Steam account, but it's the teams call to go beyond PC. 

Until then, Urban Jungle remains an excellent title on PC—a hidden gem that promises hours of serene, plant-filled gameplay. Whether you’re a casual gamer or a strategy enthusiast, it delivers a peaceful and rewarding experience that lingers in your thoughts long after you’ve stepped away. I give credit to the storyline for this. Rated E for Everyone, Urban Jungle shines as a calming choice for a child's screen time—perfect for those who enjoy cozy games or those moments when you'd prefer to steer away from fast-paced action.
