  Mighty Switch Force is a really fun game. While most players will not have the time or the patience to actually par every level, there is a lot of fun to be had in this little game. It may be a bit on the short side, but replaying levels to get the best time is really the main draw of the game. The presentation is top notch, and I constantly had a song from the game stuck in my head.

  Essentially Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is an updated title with HD graphics (which are done superbly), the aforementioned Hyper Drive Mode (hard versions of each level), and the ability to play on your TV or GamePad. It is a fun game that will challenge your gaming prowess, especially the Hyper Mode levels, but it’s a very short title without being too complicated. In the end it is quite a fun game for ten bucks, and I have no problem recommending it.

  It’s hardly a showcase title for the hardware’s capabilities but Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is a solid platformer that blends new ideas with old-school vibes in equal measure.

  That said, even if you’ve already played the 3DS version, Mighty Switch Force: Hyper Drive Edition is a fantastic title that all Wii U owners should check out. The game offers a satisfying blend of platforming and puzzle elements, complemented by a host of new stages and beautiful HD visuals. It may not be a true follow-up to the handheld effort, but it’s easily the best version of it, which is certainly high praise considering the game was great to begin with.

  Mighty Switch Force: Hyper Drive Edition is just as fantastic as its 3DS predecessor. The controls are flawless, the graphics amazing, the music some of the best we’ve heard in any video game. It all really comes down to which D you prefer, 3D or HD. The Wii U’s graphical muscle is the perfect partner for WayForward’s art gods, so even if you’ve already had your fill of the original there’s some pretty big incentive to double dip.

  So if you’ve never played MSF, this is definitely the way to do so. For people who’ve already bought the game on 3DS, it’s a judgment call. I certainly don’t have buyer’s remorse thanks to the new content, but you will basically have to play through that of the 3DS game again to get to it. But with those pretty new graphics, who’s complaining?

  At the end of the day, WayForward played it safe with Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition, and that's perfectly fine with me. Even if you bought and cherished the original on the 3DS, this new HD upgrade should be more than enough to drag you back in again, provided you didn't already tirelessly beat every par time.

  Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is a superb action puzzle title with clever stages that both get the brain working overtime, yet also offer up a thrilling fast-paced platform experience that will keep even the toughest of gamers on the edge of their seats. The number of improvements and remastered stages make this well worth a look for those that even played the game before. The only real let-down is the lack of online leader-boards for boasting about fastest level completion times, and perhaps a two-player face-off mode.

  Si en el mundo de los videojuegos se pudiera aplicar con éxito el dicho de "lo bueno, si breve, dos veces bueno", probablemente Mighty Switch Force! estaría en la cumbre del catálogo inicial de Wii U. Y es que el videojuego cuenta con un planteamiento excepcional, con ingredientes plataformeros, puzleros y de acción muy bien combinados.

  Die Umsetzung von Mighty Switch Force für Wii U war eine gute Idee. Das Spiel gibt sich zwar fast genauso minimalistisch wie auf dem 3DS, doch der Kniff mit den ausklappbaren Plattformen motiviert. Je mehr man das System verinnerlicht, desto eleganter hüpft, rätselt und schaltet man sich durch die alberne Science-Fiction-Welt.
