Reviews from

in the past


it's not terrible but after playing it for a while, it just got boring. i don't know anyone who owns this game and would want to play it together and there's not much else to do here. especially without nintendo online, there's barely any content.

The weirdest control system I've experiences

WHY THE FUCK DOES 1-2 SWITCH GET A SEQUEL BUT NOT THIS?!


I liked punching my cousins in the face as hard as i fucking could and playing this game was fun too

Imagine makinhg two sets of controls and they both suck

Why isn’t there a sequel to this??

Super fun and solid fighting game, both control styles work great though motion controls can be a bit finicky
The character deigns and art style go really hard and so dose the music, really my only problem is there's not a whole lot to do or unlock
It has potential and I really hope Nintendo makes a sequel and fleshes the game out more

This game exists. I liked punching with the joycons and the basketball mode.

ARMS was a great new and original IP from Nintendo it was sadly left to die very fast because for whatever reason Nintendo released this so close to Splatoon 2

Once Splatoon 2 released this game really died and even with the updates people didn't go back to the game. People that hate on this game have not played the new updates

I had a lot fun with this one and I look forward to the next entry in this series because I do believe due to how well this sold we will see at least ONE more in the series. Probably will be the last due to the hate this game gets for whatever reason.

cannot believe this is the only nintendo fighting game with rollback, wish i couldve played it before it was bad

Feels weird and unintuitive at the beginning, but once you get used to the controls and gimmicks of the game is a lot of fun.
It has a lot of personality. I use to think of this series and Splatoon like siblings in some manner, due to the art style and boldness.

another new nintendo IP, it was fun for the time but didn't have splatoon's staying power

we as a society moved on from this game way too fast

fun idea bad execution

This game has a very cool artstyle, incredible music, and amazing character designs. Unfortunately they cheaped out where it matters most: gameplay and content. Game was free for a week and I was able to do everything the game had to offer in that time period casually. Its asking way to much for what it's actually giving.

I do think arms as an idea still has MASSIVE potential, why this didn't get a sequel but 1 2 switch could is beyond me.

Pretty fun game but it shouldn't have cost full price. More like a fleshed out Mario Party minigame.

Great game with barely anything to do in it. I NEED a sequel

When the open beta dropped it was fun for like 5 games, then I was finished. Very sad existence this game has

1.5☆ - It was a cool concept but it died of pretty quickly which... makes sense if you've played the game. It was alright but it didn't feel interesting and nothing gave me a reason to keep playing the game.

As a proof of concept for a way the Joy Cons would almost never be used again Arms was proof positive.

As an interesting and novel videogame however it barely left a mark. There is no real challenge here to add to the well honed visuals and art style.

I liked chaining people with Min Min's shock arm into a grab over and over. Was funny. Game is lame overall though


This is a pretty decent entry for what could've been a great franchise for Nintendo, but somehow it never got a sequel.

Fun AF, Unique AF and if it weren't for this game I wouldn't have met a whole group of people who matter very much to me so I'm biased AF. 10/10 comic never happening

Very cool character design. Great music
