Switchaboo Pick of the Week

Quite a packed week of releases here, as well as some very notable releases. However we can only pick one game, and that game is…

Drum roll, please…

Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition!

Credit Nintendo

We tried to consider a different game than a Wii U/3DS port, but Hyrule Warriors is just such a stellar game with hundreds of hours of content hidden within.

The Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition is truly the version to get for any Legend of Zelda fan. This game pays homage to so many classic Legend of Zelda games, and it’s so heartwarming to see classic Game Boy version characters fight it out in Full HD.
