Youtube Video Description:

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of arcade classic Missile Command, Atari and Nickervision Studios have given the game a modern facelift with Missile Command: Recharged. In this sponsored video, I take a look at the Switch version to explore how its dual-interface option and compelling power-up gameplay loop help make Recharged one of the few home adaptations of Missile Command to truly capture the spirit of the original. ++++++++++++++ Fire missiles to protect your bases! The arcade classic is back and recharged! Missile Command: Recharged is a re-imagining of the beloved classic with fast-paced, arcade action where players must defend their bases by blasting an endless barrage of missiles hailing from the sky. Launch counter-missiles to protect your base and target power-ups to gain an edge at critical moments. Missile Command: Recharged will appeal to those that fondly remember playing the original or its many iterations, and a whole new generation of gamers that are looking for fast-paced, pick-up-and play, arcade goodness.
