What's with all the Star Trek references?
In the week in which outdoor loving began for 2017, most of the big releases are already out as of press time. The Switch picked up two relatively big guns on Tuesday with noted seed rolling simulation TumbleSeed, which Casey was able to review for us. Hopefully you're making some money next week off of it.
The other big Switch title of the week is our weekly dip into the archives of the NeoGeo with intergalactic shooter Blazing Star. Expecting some other sci-fi today? YOU FAILED IT. Continuing the retro love, the Wii U goes to the complete opposite of outer space with prehistoric platforming sequel Bonk's Revenge hitting Wii U Virtual Console.
