I used to play the hell out of this! How does this compare to the newer one though? Never picked it up

MODERATORS
Strikers and Charged (on the Wii) are much better games. And I think that just comes down to there being a bit more single player stuff in these. The Switch one was mainly focused on online matches. I had some fun with it and got some great games in with friends but I remember having more fun with the others. The new one could benefit from Switch 2’s Game Chat feature though as you could play 2v2 with friends making it easier to communicate when playing.
Haven't played either, but from what I recall people were complaining it's not as good as Strikers. Basically it was fun if you had some people to play VS with, otherwise it wasn't that great. Haven't seen any latest reviews though.
