Here's our Super Blood Hockey review - a really nice throwback and good to see this on Switch. We both agree we need more Hockey on Switch. Mark and Glen
Love this!!....hey have u guys checked out "Death Coming" yet? Oh man its absolutely hilarious!! Bought it on a whim because I like grim reapers and omg its cracking me up so much. Love to see you cover it👍😁
Saw that on the eshop, looked pretty interesting. Glen
@@SwitchUpYt I'm really liking it, basically you kill people for the reaper in a fully living mini world. But oh man, it can get really funny and addicting. The game is one of the biggest suprise games of the year so far for me! But I'm a bit nutty so......lol
Thanks for the review! I was actually really looking forward to this game and can't wait to buy it.
Yeah, it’s pretty fun. Glen
You guys give the best in depth reviews, keep it up and your channel will grow very big. Thanks guys 👍
Thank you. Much appreciated. Glen
Awesome review fellas I love this game, so awesome def worth a pick up
I add this to my list before the release because it has co op play and this game become so deep OoO. Glad i add thanks for the great review 👍
It looks like the original NES ice hockey mixed with river city ransom and mix of golf story which is pretty awesome,would love a mutant league hockey for switch as well.Hopefully EA will make a legit good port of NHL hockey to switch tho would be nice to have a legit NHL hockey game on switch
Mutant league hockey is my all time favorite sports game from the NES era. I've been waiting for another for 2 decades lol. Do you remember the Mutant League cartoon?
Yeah, I found this whilst looking for a port of MLH on ps4 xD
It's always a good day when you get to watch two SwitchUp reviews in the same day! Another great review, Glen! I have a neighbor who isn't a huge gamer but is a huge hockey fan and sometimes comes over to play the hockey game included in the NES package. Might have to pick this up to give us another option to play when he comes over!
I love how it looks reminiscent to the original Ice Hockey for NES. That was definitely one of my favorite games as a kid and I totally wanna swoop this game!
I was thinking the same thing - I was practically raised by Blades of Steel. Such a great game!
This game looks pretty cool, thanks Glen for awesome review. I wouldn’t mind picking up this game for some couch co op
It’s good fun in co-op. Glen
Definite wish list/purchase item for me. I love these kinds of sport games where you have a whole lot going on outside of just the sport.
Yeah, this is a decent little game. Glen
Don't waste your money.
This game looks like a lot of fun. I'll get the digital download later this year. Great job on the review.
Wow, 30k already, nice job and keep playing!)
Boy does this bring back memories, but now adding what I wish it had back in the 90’s-fighting. Count me in. You guys warned us that this month was going to hurt our bank account, luckily I make a pretty penny.
Yeah, this is a real throw back game. Glen
This looks like it has a lot more depth than I expected! Thanks for reviewing this. Is it out now?
Out today I believe. Glen
I've had a blast playing couch vs matches. Glad you got your hands on it. Shame no online or we'd have to trade some shots.
For sure mate. That would have been awesome. Glen
Really enjoyed your review, great going
Great stuff, thank you. Glen
Also thanks for not milking stupid rumors and perpetuating drama like other Switch channels. Subscribed. 😁
Thats what we like to hear! Mark
Great video Glen! Used to love the NHL games on the PS2 so definitely welcome Ice Hockey on Switch
Yeah, a mate of mine had an nhl game for ps2 that we used to play fairly often. I had Wayne Gretsky’s for the N64. Glen
EA Hockey and Mutant League Hockey from the Mega Drive would be amazing on Switch. For me, the original EA Hockey with national teams is the most fun I've done in a hockey. I named every player.
Which one was on the N64? That was a blast
The game gave me the chills. I remembered the good ol times with the NES and Nintendo World Cup. This games looks much alike and for the price I may pick it up. I guess it is only for eShop? It would definetly buy it as a cartridge. Superb review, as always, cheers and have a good one! :)
Yeah, just on the eshop as it stands. Glen
@@SwitchUpYt Thanks for the answer :) Have a good one.
Great review! You guys gunna review Steamworld Quest?
I was halfway through it when the Mortal Kombat code came in. I’ll get it out soon. Glen
Might pick this one up in a future sale but would love to see an NHL game for the Switch. If it were half as good as NBA 2k19 I would be very happy indeed.
That would be very cool. Glen
hey love the channel -- i think i've noticed why your subs arent shooting up in correlation with your content output.
because of the nature of review channels, people usually only stop by when they are interested in a particular game.
this means subs on a channel like this are much more valuable because you get much more "organic" traffic.
I've noticed you dont enthusiastically suggest to the audience at the beginning of each video "make sure to subscribe"
sounds too good to be true doesnt it? i suggest trying it out and watching the dramatic effect it has. cheers
Thanks Mason we actually get more subscribers per view than almost any other Nintendo Switch channel right now. 18,000 subs since Christmas and going strong. We've done the overt thing but overall it just comes across as desperate. We have a sub popup instead. Right at the logo. Mark
Definitely fills my sports void plus the love I have for pixel and the 8 and 16 but style graphics
The 16 bit style works especially well in these sort of sports titles I find. Glen
👏Game Review!👏
While I don't like bloody games, this seems so cutely violent I might pick it up.
It's a lot of fun and reminds me of Blades of Steel, but only. More modern. The computer AI is good and I'm having a tough time winning games, (even on easy!) but I'm hoping to get better. Thanks for the review!
No worries. Glen
Blades of Steel is my JAM!
It doesn't get easier it only gets harder. I hate this game because you just can't win no matter what. They should have tested this game before releasing because it's impossible. The other thing is you can't aim your shots it always hits the goalie so every shot gets blocked.
@@1sinister80 That's the first lesson to winning. Don't go right at the goalie. Create a give and go situation so that you pass to a player for a goal. For example, dribble the puck low to bring the goalie down, then pass to your player up high for a one-timer. Sometimes you can go straight at the goalie, but then flick the stick the opposite direction right before hitting the goal shot. Also, on defense, always get your player between the shooter and the goalie. You will intercept it most every time. Always be checking too. You got this!
@@napynap I would tell you to try to play it first. You can't control the player always shoots right at he goalie. It way to hard. Better controls would be good.
This is on my radar. I don't really care about sports but for some reason I always enjoyed sports games. Especially arcadey ones. My favorites were always hockey, and basketball.
Looking forward to playing with buddies 2v2 on the couch during game nights
Yeah, multiplayer is a lot of fun. Glen
Looks like it could be a fun time in multiplayer, but would probably wait for a pretty deep sale if I'm gonna get it
Yeah, it would be a good game to get in a sale. Glen
I will buy this when it goes on sale...been looking for a game like this.
Thanks for this review. My fiancée has been desperate for a hockey game for her Switch, and this might fit the bill.
Yeah, this is a decent game. Glen
i don't enjoy sports game that much but i will watch its walkthroughs. Looks fun, bleeding in a comical way 😂
Just bought this on sale for 10 dollars! Well worth the money, the franchise mode is the perfect difficulty to keep me coming back.
Yeah, a very decent game. Glen
I'm looking forward to the franchise mode. I hope it's something similar, like Mario Tennis: The Academy for instance.
It’s sooooo much better!!
@@ruthlessjack7367 Yea I still play it till this day. That and Robot Named Fight never leaves my Switch
Finally a hockey game on switch. This definitely will keep me busy while I hope for NHL on switch.
Yeah, this is a decent little game. Glen
Still waiting, haha
Needs online. Last hockey game was on the N64(Wayne Gretzky?) it was so fun. I don’t know how you triggered fights exactly but it was great when it happened
Wayne Gretzky's 3d Hockey 98 was one of the best sports games of all time.
Gretzky 3D is the greatest hockey game ever made indeed. Still play it
Looks a bit like golf story with hockey but without the story, sports games are not usually my thing but this looks fun, thanks for highlighting it guys but the graphics are putting me off a bit
Nice, looks bloody fun Mark. On another note, I wish PES came to the switch. Call Konami guys see what they say. :-P
Looks like a fun game putting it on my watch list
Ok so I said previously in another comment that I wasn't a fan of sports games because I pretty much suck at them, but omg this one looks hilarious! I would totally play this game and it's only like $15 that's what's up!
Yeah, this one’s pretty fun even if you aren’t mega into sports games. Glen
This is cool. Can’t top blades of steel though.
Reminds me of NHLPA 93 on SNES if it had a super arcade mode and swapped the camera angle.
We need Hockey and Football Americano asap!!
too bloody, too violent for the Switch
*continues playing MK 11*
Hahaha... *FATALITY*
This is hilarious. I couldn’t stop laughing while your describing this game. Violence is not only allowed but encouraged hahaha man this games only like 8 bit but can make me more interested than some bland modern title. I love games like this others that come to mind are nfl blitz and even nfl street. I’m more a fan of the sports games with no rules and just fuck someone up man that’s true fun haha
That’s definitely what this game is all about. Glen
I will definitely be picking this up
Yeah, it’s a decent game. Glen
Finally a hockey game on switch
Yeah, it’s taken a while. Glen
Looks like a tuned up version of NES Ice Hockey.
Seems to me that the d-pad isn't supported, which is a bit of a disappointment. I would've liked an option to remap the buttons as well.
Ahhhhhhhhhh this looks like fun like hockey meets escapist lol tell me glen is it worth it stay turned to find out !
I've been eagerly awaiting this game but I'm so engrossed in Dragons Dogma that I don't have time to play it. I still want to get Steamworld Quest as well. Aaaaaahhhhh. I'm drowning in games!
Haha, what a nice problem. Glen
@@SwitchUpYt I was trying to talk myself out of buying another game but I wasn't very convincing and bought it anyway.
Just bought mk11 for ps4, picking up days gone tonight, bought dragons dogma on switch, still need to catch up on cuphead, shadows die twice, dmc5, and a bunch of others. Please stop, all platforms, all dev's, all game companies. Please stop making games for awhile. I can't take it anymore! Fantastic review again guys. My favorite channel by far.
great review .. i do think this looks great, mainly the arcade feel like you said.
remember this one Glen ? it reminds me of speedball 2 by the mighty bitmap brothers but with more blood. ahhh speedball, with the ice cream man at half time, charged electric ball , star player managment, and taking the brutal deluxe team all the way to the final against the almighty 'super nashwan' team. i wish this would get a switch release. i found the old amiga link, but i think there was a megadrive release too.
czcams.com/video/iyX4BPU-Bao/video.html
Oh man, I remember Speedball only too well. I had it for the Commodore 64. Haven’t thought about that game in years. Great times. Glen
You can also get speedball 2 on Vita
looks nice, i wish we get a new dead ball zone to.. then ofcourse marines and cyborgs banned from online especially the marines feel like a cheat
i might get this reminds me of cannon fodder for amiga.
It a sale right now till January 8th?????? 2020 if you like arcade hockey, blood, or just pure fun this is your game it’s around the 5 dollar range so Worth it
YES! It is one of the GREATEST hockey games ever.
Lyra yeah it is
How many games are in a season of franchise mode?
Osaka!
@@wyredaftsquall fgsfds
ON SALE RIGHT NOW (at least in the U.S.) for $4.49!
Just out of curiosity, where was the sale?
@@dinoc6892 On the Nintendo eShop
Sounds awesome.
Yeah, it’s pretty decent. Glen
I would get this! But I don’t have a switch
Ahhhhh that is an issue here. Mark
The last portable NHL was 07 on the PSP, I’ve been after a hockey game since day 1 but this just isn’t at all like what I wanted.
I wish EA just took the 3 on 3 mode from NHL 19 and gave us that for £15.
I’ll take 3 on 3, even though the Avs 3 on 3 record this year was abysmal, lol
Hell I’ll take a damn port of NHL HITZ 2001 as that’s the reason I’m an Avs fan, just get someone to port that Gamecube gem.
This is NES Ice Hockey (which I’ve always hated as Konami’s NES Blades Of Steel was better) only with blood and brawls 🙄
Yeah, I figured this would only scratch the hockey itch for some. I agree with you completely about blades of steel being better than ice hockey. Glen
Reminds me of nhl 94
Suomi mainittu! So much finnish references!
Made in Finland too! :D
I feel like this game is missing something. The gameplay is fun, but gets boring after a while. The franchise mode has the ability to be great, but lacks enough variety to keep the play time further than a few hours. I made it 2 seasons before it got boring (like you said in the review) if they just added a little bit more to the franchise outside of the game it would be an easy 5/5 to me. Until then in my opinion wait for a huge sale (I got it for like $4)
I wish it had instant reply.
How much is this in the eshop?
I’m very interested in this!!!!
Good game this, a lot of fun. Glen
Looks like a solid time waster but for the price I'm going to place it on the wish-list and wait for a sale as my switch backlog is growing ever so steadily.
It's on sale now for £4
@@kknows1445 YES! LEGEND!
Just picked it up myself lol with my gold point it came to like £1.80!
I would really like to see a hockey game with less arcadey controls. It could even be in a similar art style as this. I'd love to see the devs of Golf Story make one. And North-South camera, like the NHL games, would be a must.
So the game is NES ice hockey meets blades of steel, with blood
That sums it up nicely! Glen
ONE OF THE BEST GAMES IVE PLAYED......
It’s pretty decent. Glen
You spelt Wayne Gretzky's name wrong
dosen't remind you of a commodore 64 game ?? is it funny ? how is it ?
No, it doesn’t look like a Commodore 64 game. Probably somewhere between 8 and 16 bit I would say. Glen
The game looks good. Not sure I feel comfortable giving a game to my son that starts off where you sell a kidney to start a hockey team.
I think I will stick with Super Kickers League for him
Nothing against the game or the review. Besides my son prefers soccer/football
Yeah, it was a strange choice to go with the blood angle. Glen
5 bucks on US eshop
Reminds me of mega man music
It has a real mega man vibe to the music. I thought that. Glen
Hell damn right bro
Still waiting for a decent Golf game......
Ah, yeah. Golf story and golf party but not a serious one yet. Glen
Yeah I played golf story...s’ok but I want a semi-serious one....none on the horizon? Seems like an oversight..
Not heard of anything but with cricket and snooker coming surely it can’t be long? Glen
Damn i just me 0.14 euro cent NOOOOOOO on my account to buy the game
Is this game playable online???
No, local multiplayer only. Glen
pretty cool game but the blood is overdone. if it looked more like NES Ice Hockey and played more like Super Blood I'd never put it down.
Blood can be turned off :)
Release nhl on the switch already
Isaac Donnelly it would be $50 and the last few haven’t been that good
I want this game but the price looks a bit high. It would be annoying to see this on a 50% sale in the near future if I pick it up now. Anyone has any idea how long until we could expect a sale for this game?
A physical version is on the way with limited run games.
For those that say this is too violent
Waifu games exist on the switch 😂
Very true!
Brutally jumbled belly button? lol!
Haha, yeah sounds like a painful injury. Glen
American football will always be under represented. Even if Switch got Madden, it would still be just another terrible Madden game... sigh.
Why every vegetarian have to say they are vegetarian 🤦♂️
Why not?
This game sucks. I bought the Physical copy at the game con in Phoenix. I have played it and tried to win but it's impossible. This game is like Karnav impossible I wouldn't get this unless you just want to be frustrated. Mind you I'm playing on the easiest setting. The closes I have come is OT and I always loose. You can do anything unless you win because you fan only buy with money that you can't win.
✋
I haven't seen this game before and I must say, even though I hate hockey, that your review just convinced me to buy the bloody thing. Decades ago, I used to love NES's Ice Hockey but Blades of Steel felt too sophisticated and sporty.
As a side note, some of the Finnish player names seen on the screen are Bully, Sausage, Sparkplug and Polarnight. Appropriately silly shit.
Is it just me or does the coach look like Trump?
not really a fan of the grotesqueness, blood, or brutality of it, otherwise seems like it would be a good hockey game
This is just a dumb RIP off of a great classic ICE HOCKEY on the NES.
If you listen closely, you can just about hear the SJW’s whining about pixelated blood 😁
The switch is becoming embarrassing with the shit on the store.... ! Android games
