Starring chili dogs and wiggling chickens.

The two big games of the week are across two systems as Sonic Mania has already been dropped, while the 3DS gets the first post-Renegade Kid product of Jools Watsham with Chicken Wiggle. The former is created by modders, while the latter comes with its own modding tools. Which one's the more fun platformer? We'll leave that up to you. Jared reviewed Sonic Mania for us, while Matt West's review of Chicken Wiggle should be up shortly.

In other news, we have another demo as the Rayman Legends demo for the Switch's Definitive Edition is now available. Press X to MUUUUUUUURPHY. There's also two Jackbox Party Packs for those really pricey parties. On the retro front we have Magician Lord, one of the more popular non-fighting game properties of the Neo Geo.

Since the lineups for all three territories are largely similar, a word about the retail release Troll and I: Multiple reports exist of a repeatable hard lock bug in the Switch version, that according to the publisher can be resolved by power cycling the system (turning off and back on). No word yet on a patch for this issue.

I'm grabbing that Rayman demo just to see how it plays on the Switch.

I am disappointed that the two older Jackbox Party Packs went up at full price. I'll wait to see if we get some type of bundle discount on all three this holiday.
