Kids friendly game, Keep them busy for a while...son got it for his friend’s birthday n he loved it

This game is one of the closest things to the original Wii active games that we have found. It is fun, and gets the player moving.

Kids couldn't wait to get this. I can only base this review on 2 under 8 year olds and they ove it.

This game is great, very fun. I am honestly surprised I didn't think it would be as good as it is.

I expected a fighter that was easy and didn't actually have a learning curve... I was wrong, but that's a good thing! I suck of course, but it's a lot of fun and with interesting characters, neat stages and fun game modes. I wish there were a few more stages, however.

I'll preface this review by saying I haven't spent a TON of time with this game yet. That being said... Much like Splatoon was Nintendo's take on shooters, this is their take on a fighting game for the Nintendo Switch. It's like they took Virtual On and replaced it with human-like characters in smaller arenas (that being said, hey SEGA let's get Virtual On in the Nintendo eShop). Instead of guns/missles you're fighting with one of the colorful characters with weird stretchy arms. Each fight begins in a small arena with you and your opponent trying to knock each other out. Each fighter has a unique skill set to take other fighters out, so there's new things to discover with each one. You can play with the Joycons in each hand or as a controller/undocked switch. I admittedly haven't played it with a joycon in each hand, but I could see that wearing thin really quick. The cast of characters is really fun and colorful. Kids will have some fun with this one for sure. If you're an old school fan of Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat this isn't necessarily going to scratch that itch, but it is a fun departure from that old formula.

Fun family time action game play the children loves this game we battle each other for long time

Arms is a great unique fighting game exclusive to the switch, it's even more fun with a friend. The game is deceptively simple but has a lot of depth to it. Most people dismiss it or don't know much about it but it's truly a fun gen with quirky characters and a variety of ways to play!

This is an awesome fighting game Nintendo style. Very colorful with 10 fighters, although they will add more for free. A lot of different types of games. Vs, basketball, volleyball, training, etc. The characters are very fun and they have different styles. It is perfect for all the ages.

My kid loves this game. Wakes up in the morning to play before school and then we he comes home.

Great game. My kids really enjoy playing this. It challenging but not too hard. Good graphics!

ever want to beat up your friends but not actually do it? buy this game, you can do it in this.

I like swinging, just be careful where it lands. Good game. For some reason it is available for demo, but demo never works.

This game is for multiplayer enthusiasts that want to take the fight online. Admittedly, the single player content is sparse but it prepares you for the online portion of the game which is what gives this game legs. ARMS seems simple at first but it's a fighter with surprising depth.

This is incredible fun, and much more than just a goofy looking family game. Arms is basically some sort of Punch-Out and Virtual On combination (for those familiar with Sega's 3-dimensional Mech battle arcade game). It's silly, colorful, easy to learn, addictive, funny, and really, REALLY well put together. It's a great concept and though I know the reviews are great on here, the "word on the street" is less hype about this amazing game than I think it deserves. It's no Tekken or MK or Street Fighter 5, but it's not trying to be either. For my part, as a Punch-Out fan, I liked this much more than Punch-Out for the Wii. It's much more accessible, and a great use of the joy-con controllers.

This game is pretty enjoyable. It definitely fills the void in the switch game launch windows, but has a pretty basic 10match single player story mode. Online is good. It definitely has a learning curve. The controls are slightly difficult to grasp. Its a good game to add to the switch collection for now but $60 is a pretty penny.

I got this game for my nephew, he just love it and also brought the family to play as well.

The game is easy to pick-up and play when I have company, but is also really deep and gets intense online. The motion controls are really tight, precise and intuitive. Any fan of fighting games or just want a good game to casually play against your friends needs to try this one.

we bought this for our son and he loves this game so much such great concept and graphics

I’m not a huge fan of this game. Kind of boring and pricey for what it is. Kids like it though so I would recommend it.
