RPGFan: "Despite the cartography being less enjoyable than on DS, this remaster is still the best way to experience once of the best Etrian Odyssey games...as long as you play in handheld mode!"
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Who doesn't love a good video game compilation? They bring together multiple games previously spread out across the years or across various platforms and arrange them into a tidy, accessible package, often with some modern bells and whistles. Some of the best compilations of 2023 included Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection, which upgrades three classic quests in high-definition; The Lara Croft Collection, which brings isometric adventures Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light and Lara Croft and the Temple of Osiris to Switch for the first time; Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, the ultimate way to experience the saga; and Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol.1, home to several of Hideo Kojima's works of art."
Good stuff, but I feel like some collections like Etrian Odyssey are unappealing because of the price, or in the case of Metal Gear Solid, performance issues.
New Switch eShop sale includes lowest prices ever for Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba - The Hinokami Chronicles, Etrian Odyssey, and more.
Atlus' re-release of the first three games in the series through Etrian Odyssey Origins Collection isn’t the ideal compilation for these classic portable RPGs, but it’s the best one that we’re likely to get.
