Virtua Fighter 5 R.E.V.O. World Stage (Nintendo Switch 2) Review
Back in ’21, fellow Chump Steven reviewed the release of Virtua Fighter 5 Ultimate Showdown, a modest remake (graphically, at least) version of 2007’s Virtua Fighter 5 that he coincidentally reviewed nearly nine years prior. What began as a history lesson of Virtua Fighter’s past turned into a review of pleasant surprise towards Sega’s decision to rerelease Virtua Fighter 5 for new audiences. Look...[Read More]
Yakuza Kiwami 3 & Dark Ties (Nintendo Switch 2) Review
The Yakuza franchise has been hard to recommend to others over the past few years. It’s not because they’re not fun; they are very fun. It’s not because of a boring plot; their plot and subsequent side stories are hilarious and engaging. The series is tough to recommend because it’s confusing to figure out where a new player should start. For a Yakuza super fan like you and I who’ve been around fo...[Read More]

Two Point Museum Review (Nintendo Switch 2)
I know I have brought this up in intros for several reviews, but I must do it once again…I think I’m getting old. Why? Well, I’m enjoying more cozy games and simulators, two genres I actively avoided in my younger years. I’m sure we could spend all day digging up research and trying to figure out why this change occurred, but I’m just going to go with ‘getting old. ’ Anyway, another simulator cros...[Read More]
Persona 3 Reload (Nintendo Switch 2) Review
Persona 3 Reload is going to be available on the Nintendo Switch 2 in two days. As someone who has now played Persona 3 Portable and Persona 3 Reload a grand total of six times in the past few years, I am legitimately torn. On one hand, I am ecstatic that Switch 2 owners who have yet to play one of 2024’s best remasters now get to. On the other hand, it’s hard to ignore that the Switch 2 port of R...[Read More]

Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds Review
The gulf of time between me playing kart racers has been gargantuan. In 2006, Mario Kart: Double Dash would have been in heavy rotation in my college hall. The fervent madness of Baby Park as six or seven of us would constantly swap out controllers, hooting and hollering at sour defeat and ruthless victory. Fast-forward to 2019 and Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled. I’d never played the origina...[Read More]
Shinobi: Art of Vengeance Review
While the DNA of more recent titles can be seen in Shinobi: Art of Vengeance, it is unequivocally rooted in the framework of classic action games. Perhaps this shouldn’t come as a surprise from Lizardcube, the team that worked on Streets of Rage 4, the first entry in that classic beat ’em up series in 25 years. Why wouldn’t Sega ask the team behind that well-received revitalizati...[Read More]
