I have been a Marvel Collector Corps Founder since the very beginning. That means that I signed up with the program before it got started and I have been a member ever since. Last year the Founder’s Statue was of Captain America. Who will it be this year? I reveal that in this video.
For the past couple of years for Father’s Day we have had epic water balloon fights. That is the activity that I enjoy most for Father’s Day, having great fun with the family. Getting everyone to laugh and let loose. Especially me. I’m too rigid in day to day life and need these moments of chaos and fun to be able to act like the little kid inside me. I think that many dads want a chance to play with their kids and have a great time on Father’s Day. This year I’d still like to have that epic water balloon fight, but once we dry off I would like to try some play fighting of another sort.
I bought the Nintendo Switch the day it came out, I had it pre-ordered and could not wait to experience this new gaming system. I’ve been a Nintendo fan ever since the NES back in the 80’s. So far I have only been playing the switch on my own except for two things. Andrew and I did the Global Test Fire of Splatoon 2 and we recently got a copy of Snipperclips to review (see below). There are some great family games for the Nintendo Switch like Mario Kart 8 and the upcoming wacky boxing game: ARMS. ARMS just happens to be coming out on Father’s Day and that is something I’d love to play with the kids on that day. Here is some official info on the game.
ARMS (Nintendo Switch, $59.99) is the newest creation from the team behind the hit game Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. Choose a unique fighting champion, equip your own combination of extendable arms and then battle it out with friends and family!* Using a mix of button presses and quick hand motions, ARMS allows you to throw tactical punches or avoid incoming attacks. Unleash your inner fighter in this unbelievable sporting event!
Dads will love the game Engadget calls “a lighthearted, competition-focused brawler with endearing characters, unique stages and excellently balanced gameplay” and that IGN says is “a fighting game with a balletic rhythm and flow that feels unique.”
ARMS launches exclusively for Nintendo Switch on June 16. For more information, check out http://arms.nintendo.com/.
*Additional accessories required for multiplayer and are sold separately.
Arms Looks like a pretty incredible game. It is funny and colorful and just the sort of game that Nintendo would create to bring the family together to play. Nintendo also created a cute little game called Snipperclips that is just as colorful but a bit less exciting. However, it is still fun and funny to play.
