I received a download code for free from Nintendo for the upcoming Nintendo Switch game ARMS. It is being released on June 16, 2017 and is going to be a lot of fun for the whole family. My impressions of the game are completely my own.

Andrew and I played this game for the first time today. We played a bunch of times before we made the video so that we could both get a feel for how it works. Then we played a bunch more after the video, too. We tried all sorts of different play options. We played Volleyball, Hoops and many more. I even played online with whoever else was online and I liked that because I went through all sorts of combat modes to see how many options there are to play the game.
