Demo Play Thursday - BlazBlue Entropy Effect X DEMO On Switch


iPhone Friday - BlazBlue Entropy Effect - https://youtu.be/Pw4_669LiNQ

For this week's Demo Play Thursday i played the Nintendo Switch version of BlazBlue Entropy Effect X.

I had previously played the iPhone version in 2025 and put it 3rd in my Game of the Year list, https://youtube.com/shorts/UdYDuVw0L74, so i had an idea as to what to expect from this Nintendo Switch version.

One big thing i noticed immediately was how much better the UI looked. on phone's, because of the icons on screen it can look a little cluttered. but here on TV all the icons were pushed to the edge and we get to see so much more of the game. BlazBlue Entropy Effect X still looks great and on a Switch 2 i imagine the HDR would work great with the neon lights. the music is still great, too. before, i was pressing buttons on the screen but here i was using a Pro Controller and found the game to be responsive and the combat till fluid.

As fun as the game still is, the tutorial issues from the iPhone version are still here. the game starts with a good tutorial, but it just stops and then the game adds more mechanics and terminology to the experience with little to no information about what any of it means.
