Nintendo Download: Claw Your Way to the Top

How does a game about fighting kitties get top billing over Diablo II: Resurrected? I have no idea but both games go live this week.

I guess cats are kinda demonic

So yeah, only on a Nintendo console would you find a game like Diablo II taking a backseat to Fisti-Fluffs. Yes, Fisti-Fluffs. It’s a game about house cats fighting. Billed as a “physics-based party game”, I’m sure that it’s ridiculous fun, but listed as the headline title in a week that sees Diablo II brought back from the dead? Not too sure about that.

What is pretty sure though, is that Blizzard’s revamp of the best-loved Diablo title of all time (maybe some personal bias in there) is looking great. the game brings the PC classic back for a fresh generation of play, and completely revamps the look. Don’t worry though, if you loved how D2 played, you’ll be getting the same experience.

As for what else is out this week, it’s actually pretty loaded. Not a ton of big names outside of Diablo and Dragon Ball Z Kakarot – A New Power Awakens Set, but a big week nonetheless. And there look to be a few gems too, like G Darius HD.

Scroll down to take a peek.

  • Fisti-Fluffs – With no humans in sight, the cats are bored. And you know what that means? That’s right. It’s time to tussle! Pounce, hiss, flail and claw your way through the kitty kingdom to prove your wobbly cat “is best cat.” Fisti-Fluffsis an adorable (and yes, ridiculous) physics-based party game where you tussle with other cats and destroy the environments in frenetic, over-the-top battles.
