ARMS looks to be turning out better than I had anticipated. I thought it would be another gimmick-filled game to sell you on some of the Switch's functionality, but now I'm actually sold that it'll be a good title to play. When I eventually buy a Switch, I think I might go for it.

Hopefully this game fails miserably like 12 Switch so Nintendo can stop making this gimmicky garbage and start making good games.
