A lot of games aren’t available physically. Any game available physically, I buy physically for exactly that reason. It’s not always an option.

I'm sure it'll eventually bite me on the arse but so far I've had no troubles.

I think I've got Switch addiction.
Especially during this mad old lockdown I just buy everything. I've got 4 Doom games on there now, all the better cheap sale games, 5 Resident Evil Games. Anything I like or have ever wanted to play I basically get on Switch. My virtual library and physical library is huge.
It's such a simple and easy console to fit into your life I just love buying games to have them in case I ever want to play them.
Do I love Super Meat Boy? Yes. Have I bought it? Yes. Played it? Not really.
Do I love Ikaruga? Yes. Have I bought it? Yes. Payed it? Not really. (Did buy a flip grip though...)
Do I love Pazer Dragoon. Yes. Have I bought it. I bloody well will. Maybe I will play it, maybe I won't. But I'll have it in my little list of Switch game blocks.
I am sure I'm not the only Switch consumer like this as well...

So Panzer Dragoon... it’s okay. It’s not fantastic. The intro feels poor and old and yet not really in a charming old kind of way. So it doesn’t set a great beginning experience. The game itself looks better. Still feels a bit dusty but the design is pretty. Some of the visuals really make the more drab areas of the original look lovely but don’t quite live up to what they better looking places in the original could have been. Yes, obviously technically it’s way above the original but the design really shone in that old game back in the day. This remake is a bit busy in places which makes it tricky to see some of the enemies but it does look pretty. It’s kind of like a PS3 conversion of a game that was pretty on that system, if you know what I mean.
The targeting thingy (reticule?) comes from the original and it wasn’t as simple or clear as in the sequel. They should have gone with the sequel version. This is a bit hard to read. And the sound effects are too much, getting in the way of the music in places.
Oh and it has a credit system, like it’s an arcade game.
It doesn’t make a wonderful first impression. But I don’t want to be all that negative about it because, playing it, it does capture that original game. It’s fun. It just doesn’t feel like a high-polish remake as remakes go. Music is great though and I still hope they remake the second game.
