Designing For | Nintendo's BEST Fighting Game -- Peak Design @DesigningFor | Uploaded April 2022 | Updated October 2024, 8 hours ago.
Designing For is a series which looks at a level in gaming, and analyzes a theme central to that level's design. In this episode, we break down Joy Mech Fight, a classic but forgotten Nintendo fighting game, and see what it does to be the most accessible (and perhaps best?) fighting game Nintendo's ever released.
