It's worth picking up just to keep encouraging Nintendo to go back to this well of titles we know exist but haven't been released in over three decades. If you're even slightly interested in Sky Skipper you should purchase the Arcade Archives version sooner rather than later since we don't know the specifics behind the Nintendo-Hamster-Ikegami deal so this game could easily just vanish off the eShop someday.

Critic reviews
- 6.0There are already a number of Hi-Score chasers on Switch, but Arcade Archives Sky Skipper has gained attention because it's such a rare title. It's an early game too, and it shows in the visuals which feature some good (albeit small) character sprites, but stages that at times look not so much stylishly retro as hideously basic.
