Down that chanko It looks like Hamster has returned to its big bag of nameless titles for this week’s retro re-release, as Technos Japan’s sumo wrestling titleShusse Ozumois now available to download on Nintendo Switch. Released in arcades back in 1984,Shusse Ozumodoes its best to recreate the noble chest-smacking combat of sumo, featuring large, expressive sprites and surprisingly detailed backgrounds.

Starting a fresh save is fun… but at what cost? It’s been an exhausting year. I look to video games as a way to unwind and relax, and even though my backlog is only getting bigger and bigger, I can’t bring myself to start any new games — instead, I’ve stuck to my favorite five games that I know like the back of my hand.
