Pros
Pro Easy to just play a couple of games thanks to how quick they are
Super Bomberman R has an average game time of under 2 minutes. This makes it perfect if you and your friends just want to hop on and blow each other up for a little while.
Pro Retains the classic Bomberman feel
Super Bomberman R takes the classic gameplay of the Bomberman series and holds on tight. It's got familiar controls, and the overall concept hasn't changed: blow people up without getting blown up. You can only move in 4 directions, and are able to place or throw bombs in the spot where you want them in order to either destroy your opponents, or the blocks around the map, which may reveal powerups (additional bombs, larger blasts, etc.) or even power-downs (fewer bombs, smaller blasts).
Pro Multiplayer has a lot of options available
Super Bomberman R offers a few options for multiplayer. Up to 4 people can play on the portable screen, or up to 8 on a TV. Even if you've got no one to play with, there's an online play option for the first time in the Bomberman series.
Pro It has a charming story mode
While it's clearly no RPG, Super Bomberman R has a delightful story mode that supports drop in co-op play if you want to play with someone else. The cartoon characters and ridiculous antics make it quite fun to play, and interestingly enough, it has a decent variety of missions. You won't be stuck killing X amount of enemies every level, which definitely breaks the routine of monotonous, repetitive quests in these types of games.
Cons
Con The handheld screen is too small for 4 person multiplayer
The Nintendo Switch, while convenient in a ton of ways, simply has a small handheld screen. Four people huddling around the 6.2 inch screen would make this unplayable for many players.
Con The controls feel unresponsive online
When you're playing online, there's a decent amount of lag when inputting an order to your character. Konami has released a "significant upgrade" for Bomberman in order to combat this, and there are plans to further improve upon the issue.
