That is why I think it’s better to rate games in their niche. I think a lot of sites do this (IGN Gamespot) but a lot don’t, and so you’ll get the occasional great game with a 6/10, because the reviewer doesn’t like the genre, or doesn’t fall into the market niche; some games are GREAT for party/social gaming (Just Dance comes to mind) but not very good for people who aren’t as sociable and mainly like to game solo/online. Then there are gamers who prefer to plan (strategy/RPG), and others who like to just move around and execute combos (Action/fighters); those who like big weaving stories (PSX era RPGs and perhaps grand strategy and games like Dwarf fortress), and others who are utterly confused by them (veer toward Pokemon and simpler 4X strategies like Civ).

Of course, people can be fans of multiple niches, probably at varying levels.

That's good to hear. I figure the PS4 and Xbox versions will help push it over that milestone. I hope it raises the chances of Bomberman being in Smash :D

Awesome news.

I think a new Castlevania will come from Konami for the Switch next. Maybe even a year exclusive to it like Bomberman was and then ported to other systems.

Konami themselves even said they were considering it, and after seeing the sales of Bomberman I wouldn't be surprised to see it happen.

Hopefully this shows third-parties that they have a home on Switch. I bought Super Bomberman R because it was one of very few games at launch and I still regret it. The only upside was I supported a third-party company.

Very impressive

I didn't get the game because it's too pricey
