I was happy to discover this game was on Switch after I played it at local arcade on PS4. This is one of the few Switch games to include a manual. Given that this is more costly then the digital version it's nice to have the manual as an extra inclusion. I got this on sale for $19.99 so it was definitely worth that price. There is a lot of fun to be had with this game alone and with friends.

As a multiplayer game, it's fun and creative with a unique style, colorful characters, and crazy gameplay. Single player is pretty lackluster but multiplayer is the meat. However, as a product, I would not recommend if you want to keep physical media, when I try to use the game without the internet, and gave me a message that says that a download is required. Which is a slap in the face to those who buy the games. If you are a customer who doesn't have good internet and want to play this awesome game, I would not buy this product, I would go find other alternatives to play this game. Heck, you mind as well buy this game digitally since it's the same thing anyway.

I loved this game when I was growing up, but there was no way my parents would ever get me a Neo Geo console (and the additional $200 for the game) to play it. So, I was relegated to only only playing it whenever an arcade or pizza joint had a Neo Geo arcade machine. This was always my first choice in those instances. Now, having it available on a home console that doubles as a handheld is beyond amazing. The game is easy enough to pick up & play, but has many subtleties to make even the experienced gamer work. It's even better when played with a friend. It's hard to explain, but it's like air hockey, dodgeball, and frisbee all wrapped into one package.
Final Verdict: A FANTASTIC version of an underappreciated gem of a game. A+

The actual gameplay is pretty fun, but single player modes are bare bones and online is basically non-existent. I’ve tried to start on an online match on at least 3 different occasions now and I can never find a match. Too bad.. cause the core gameplay is fun but lack of content/game modes really hurts this one.

Really fun. Can't say much more. It's a mix between pong and foozeball. It's really fun and totally worth getting. I would almost say it's worth $30 but being that there is very little content, I would wait until it drops to $20

While it doesn't have much in terms of longevity, it definitely lives up to arcade play of quick bursts and it easy to pick up and play with others.

This game is great for people who lived in the VideoGame gold era, this game is a re-rrlease from NeoGeo WindJammers. It's great and it has only a few changes. No changes has been made on the gameplay. I recommend it 100%, it's a Must Have if you enjoyed in the past when NeoGeo SNK was the king of the arcades.

Windjammers is a fun arcade style fighting game which originally came out on the PS4 and PS Vita. It's now available on the Nintendo Switch. This title is the physical version of the game published by Limited Run Games. And the only place where you can purchase this physical version of the game is at Best Buy.

Cool sports like game where you are playing Frisbee with power ups. You get to do cool tricks and have fun powerups moves. Sometimes if you are playing online it takes a little bit of time to find someone to play. Ranked games seem to find people quickly.

Sun, shades, sand, and SPORTS. Throw a disc at your opponent until the rounds end. The game doesn't have a grand story or varied gameplay and it isn't worth it if you don't have a friend to play with, but it's a simple and fun game that anyone can enjoy for a night.

Classic Neogeo game on the switch! My friends and I have had a blast jamming out some rounds every now and then. Not something you’ll play for hours on end, but definitely entertaining. Recommended!

Windjammers still holds up and is still a lot of fun. Fast paced matches and addicting gameplay, along with the fact that this is a physical release rather than just a digital download, make this popular classic worth picking up.

It's so fun, random, impressive that this tiny game got a physical release via LRG. It's a fantastic way to preserve this game for Switch and play with friends! A great collectible and a great game. Pick this up while you still can!

I love that best buy carries limited run games now, shipping from LRG always kills it for me and I wanted Windjammers, such a great game to play with friends. Do yourself a favor and buy it before they are gone.

If you played this game years ago and have fond memories then you're in luck since it's available on modern consoles and still as fun and addicting as before! It's a perfect game to play with a friend
