Nintendo Download: Dr. Eggman’s Hatching Something Wild

Fans of Sega’s blue speed demon should be happy this week, with the launch of Sonic Colors Ultimate. It’s just about the only standout however.

Big time

Yes it’s a Sonic kinda week for the Nintendo Switch, as the Sonic Colors remaster lands on the console. For it’s part, Sonic Colors Ultimate is looking great, and finally brings the formerly-Wii exclusive title to a new generation. That, however, is kind of it this week.

While there are a bunch of other games landing on the console, nothing is really all that impressive. And as you look over the list below, you might be hard-pressed to find anything that’s even remotely interesting.

There’s a possible exception for those looking for a little arcade boxing action, with Creed Champions, but really… there ain’t much else.
