Pros
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.
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 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 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 Holds up incredibly well
Titan Quest is over 10 years old now, and it is still widely played. It even saw a remastered "Anniversary Edition" in August of 2016, drawing in more players, old and new.
Pro You can choose the speed you want to play at
Titan Quest is unique among ARPGs in that you get to choose the game speed. You can be a leisurely player and take things slowly, or you can go hard and play the game on very fast settings. The fact that you get to choose adds another level of enjoyment to the game.
Pro Replayability through different classes
There are a plethora of classes that open up upon leveling to the second level, once one is chosen the others will be gone for that game session. This means that a different playthrough will be needed to explore what all the different classes offer, making for quite a lot of playtime.
Pro Lots of loot to find
There is quite a lot of loot in the game to be found, which drives the player to continue playing, just to find that better weapon or piece of armor. The loot is also color coded when dropped, making it easy to discern what is worth picking up or leaving behind.
Pro Tons of customization
There are 30 different classes of characters to choose from within the game with 150 character skills that they can learn. This way users can customize their character to their liking and playstyle.
Cons
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.
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 Combat feels a little static
Con Save anywhere does not save character placement
This means that there will be some retreading of areas once a save is loaded as the character will not be in the same place as where they were left off. This will waste time and can be frustrating having to do this every time you load the game.
Con Disappointing loot at later levels
Even when the player has reached a high level, they will often find loot meant for low level characters. This can be frustrating when trying to find better gear and just adds a lot of clutter to ones inventory as the majority of items found won't be that useful.
