Gimmick! Special Edition (Switch)

Sometimes the best collectibles come in understated packages. Gimmick! Special Edition for Nintendo Switch brings one of the rarest, most coveted Famicom platformers back to life with a reversible cover that lets you choose between fresh artwork and a nod to the original.

For those of us who've spent years watching loose Gimmick! carts climb into absurd territory on the aftermarket, holding a legitimate physical copy feels almost surreal. Sunsoft's cult classic was the kind of game that proved the 8-bit era still had tricks up its sleeve, with physics-based star-tossing gameplay that was genuinely ahead of its time.

The reversible cover is a small but meaningful touch for display-minded collectors who like options on the shelf. If you missed Gimmick! the first time around (and statistically, almost everyone did), this Switch release finally puts one of gaming's great hidden gems where it belongs: in your hands and on your shelf.
