Review Cuphead (Switch) - The Xbox Masterpiece Becomes An Essential Purchase On Switch
It’s a mug’s game
It’s a well-known fact that teamwork makes a dream work. Console wars are all well and good, but when great games are made available on multiple systems, the ultimate winner is the player. The recent love-in we’ve been seeing between Nintendo and Microsoft started a while back when Minecraft was released on Nintendo...

Review Cuphead - The Delicious Last Course (Switch) - Short, Sweet, And Utterly Essential
You'd be a mug to ignore it
There’s a section near the end of one of the new stages in Cuphead’s DLC that made us shout a four-letter word at the screen extremely loudly, and that word wasn’t ‘cups’. Being the level-headed types we are, it’s very rare for a game to make us resort to such outbursts, but there we were, bellowing the sort...

Guide Best Retro Throwback Nintendo Switch Games - Modern Games With Old-School Style
Scratch that nostalgia itch with these Switch neo-classics
Ah, nostalgia — it's a tricksy thing. How many times have we gone back to revisit a treasured classic only to find that modern games have spoiled it for us? For all the brilliant aspects of retro games, the mod cons and performance we're used to now are pretty fantastic, too, and sometimes...

Port city
Updated with new entries. Enjoy! Few could have predicted just how successful Nintendo's hybrid console would be prior to launch back in March 2017.

A full reveal will take place later this year
To go out with a bang, the Future Games Show teased a new project by the indie studio Woodrunner Games.

Feature Cuphead Creators On The Perfect Physical Edition, Animation, And Working With Netflix
"Partnering with the team at iam8bit was right for us"
It's kind of amazing to think that, before this month, Cuphead had never had a physical launch. This seminal run-and-gun indie, visually inspired by the rubber hose animation from the 1930s and the Jazz age, made a huge splash in 2017 on Xbox and Windows, and with a Switch port finally...

About The Game
Cuphead is a classic run and gun action game heavily focused on boss battles. Inspired by cartoons of the 1930s, the visuals and audio are painstakingly created with the same techniques of the era: traditional hand drawn cel animation, watercolour backgrounds, and original jazz recordings.
Play as Cuphead or Mugman (in single player or local co-op) as you traverse strange worlds, acquire new weapons, learn powerful super moves, and discover hidden secrets while you try to pay your debt back to the devil!

🎶but now here's something rich🎶
🎶You can play while you roam🎶
🎶Cuphead's comin' to Switch! 🎶
Great game! Extremely hard, but definitely enjoying it.
It's Cuphead and his pal Mugman
They like to roll the dice
By chance, they came on Devil's game
and gosh they paid the price...
paid the price...
So does anyone know if this one is coming out as a hard copy? It seems way too good to be a digital-only title.
Edit: COOL! I just found out it's getting a retail release with all DLC included for the Switch... still no release date yet.
Patiently waiting for the DLC.
A great multiplayer/singleplayer adventure starring Cuphead its a nice game with a cartoony art style from the 1930's like Popeye or Steamboat Willy this game is a must have.
