Don’t hate on this game just yet. I bought Battle League yesterday and here are my thoughts:
Pros:
The game’s visuals are great, all the animations are clean and well done and give the characters a lot of personality.
The core gameplay is solid. Moving characters, shooting the ball and tossing items feel fluid and great.
Solid soundtrack with rock themes and remixes.
Online works well, being better than Smash bros and Mario maker from my experience.
Cons:
The biggest and most obvious issue with this game is the lack of content and Nintendo slowly putting out more characters fields etc, with updates. It’s annoying and shouldn’t happen considering you can play regular matches offline, in tournaments and offline. I understand that can be a killer for some people and not let the game be enjoyable.
Overall I had a lot of fun with this game for what WAS in the game. The lack of other modes and a rather small character roster is annoying, but for what is here it’s pretty enjoyable.
