Officially
cially released by Sonic the Hedgehog's handlers, the
diminutive device looks just like the 16-bit console you spent your
youth tethered to, complete with a pair of the system's classic,
three-button control pads. Best
of all, the plug-and-play
platform contains 42
of the system's most
popular games, from
Strider and Phantasy
Star IV: The End of the
Millennium to Golden Axe
and Ghouls 'n Ghosts.

Level up your skills while lighting up your gaming environment
with PDP's new Nintendo Switch Afterglow controller. Featuring
LED illumination that shines through the peripheral's clear,
polycarbonate shell, the premium gamepad encourages players
to express their personal style through a variety of color-based
customization options.
Whether you go with a warm subtle glow or program it to cycle
through the most extreme colors of the rainbow, you'll appreciate
playing your favorite games from behind the controller's responsive
sticks, click-y buttons, and triggers and
bumpers that please the
fingers with every

DEADLY PREMONITION: ORIGINS
(A KSYS GA MES )

The quirky, cult-favorite Deadly
Premonition fifinally
nally creeps its way onto
the Nintendo Switch, allowing faithful
fans of the classic survival horror entry
to relive its scares anywhere, anytime on
the portable platform. Newcomers are
also in for a treat, as the game's story
puts them in the shoes of an FBI agent
investigating a mysterious murder in a
sleepy town full of eccentric characters.
Like a beautiful, bizarre, playable mash-up of Twin Peaks and The
X-Files, this one's twisted tale will stick with you long after you've
cracked the case of the Raincoat Killer.
