Cutting the fat. It’s safe to say that over the last few years, Square Enix has been pumping out games faster than Marvel sends its Disney+ shows out to die. Heck, we even tackled the company’s insane cadence back in 2022 to try and figure out what on earth was going on at the Japanese…

Our first big Switch exclusive of 2024 arrives nice and early and, rather than assuming the form of one of Nintendo’s bigger franchises — we got Fire Emblem Engage this time last year — we are instead winding the clock back to 2005 and 2009 respectively, to dive into swish remakes of a…
