Switch Limited Run #211: MythForce VHS Edition

Saturday morning cartoons never actually had a first-person dungeon crawler, but MythForce makes a convincing case that they should have. Switch Limited Run #211: MythForce VHS Edition for Nintendo Switch leans all the way into the '80s cartoon aesthetic with VHS-style clamshell case packaging that belongs next to your old He-Man tapes. The presentation is spot-on, from the case design to the enamel pin set featuring the game's Saturday morning heroes.

The 11"x17" poster and sticker sheet round out the nostalgia factor, while the original soundtrack captures the synth-driven energy that powered every animated intro you watched before school. MythForce itself is a roguelite that filters dungeon-crawling through a cel-shaded cartoon lens, and whether you're slashing through enemies or exploring procedurally generated corridors, the visual commitment never breaks. For Switch collectors, VHS-styled packaging has become something of a holy grail format.

It triggers a very specific memory, that tactile clunk of sliding a tape into the rewinder, and it looks phenomenal displayed spine-out alongside other retro-format releases. This VHS Edition doesn't just package a game. It packages an entire era's worth of aesthetic choices into one collectible set that earns its place on any shelf dedicated to the weird and wonderful intersection of gaming and nostalgia.
