Mighty Switch Force: Hyper Drive Edition is just as fantastic as its 3DS predecessor. The controls are flawless, the graphics amazing, the music some of the best we’ve heard in any video game. It all really comes down to which D you prefer, 3D or HD. The Wii U’s graphical muscle is the perfect partner for WayForward’s art gods, so even if you’ve already had your fill of the original there’s some pretty big incentive to double dip.
Essentially Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is an updated title with HD graphics (which are done superbly), the aforementioned Hyper Drive Mode (hard versions of each level), and the ability to play on your TV or GamePad. It is a fun game that will challenge your gaming prowess, especially the Hyper Mode levels, but it’s a very short title without being too complicated. In the end it is quite a fun game for ten bucks, and I have no problem recommending it.
It’s hardly a showcase title for the hardware’s capabilities but Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition is a solid platformer that blends new ideas with old-school vibes in equal measure.
