Reviews from

in the past


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

Nintendo sempre tem que bancar a diferentona né.

"Ah vamo fazer um fighting game"
Bora, mas que seja algo que integre o uso de Joycon até a guéla pra servir de tech demo pro console e que seja tão contra intuitívo e sem alma que faça o Wii Sports parecer masterpeça.

Maybe i'm still in denial of it's failure but i liked this game a lot and i hope it gets a sequel. Character designs are far too good for this to rot away as a one off

such a fun game wish it was more relevant and had more content

If ARMS has a million fans, then I am one of them. If ARMS has ten fans, then I am one of them. If ARMS has only one fan then that is me. If ARMS has no fans, then that means I am no longer on earth.

Mediocre
Sure it's fine but the amount of relying it does on motion controls mixed with just...everything makes it the least played software on my switch

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

Muchísimo potencial, super entretenido, Nintendo maltratadores

You're telling me this game got Free DLC?

Pretty fun! If i had a switch when this first dropped i would've been all over this hehehe
