A major component of any fighting game is the appeal of the characters. Nintendo is hoping gamers gravitate to the colorful cast of Arms,  its new fighting game for the Nintendo Switch.

The company has released a character introduction video for Arms. Spring Man, Ribbon Girl, Ninjara, Master Mummy, and Mechanica are all spotlighted, with their various attributes displayed. Check them out below and look for Arms to release on Switch this spring.

My Opinion:

While it is good to see Nintendo create new IP for the Switch, Arms just doesn’t appeal to me. I’ve heard the game is actually fun to play, so maybe it makes a better hands-on impression. Still the characters shown, seem uninspired to me in both design and name.
