Review: Johnny Turbo’s Arcade: Heavy Barrel (Nintendo Switch)

I generally have a problem with games that are released for nostalgic purposes, and Heavy Barrel does not break that trend. It’s a 21-year-old arcade action game faithfully reproduced on your Nintendo Switch, but it’s not one you’ll need to play if you don’t already have fond memories of it.
