There aren't many anime video games that capture the look and feel of their respective show, but Dragon Ball FighterZ does so with the utmost grace and blazing fast action. The game earned an impressive 9/10 in GameSpot’s Dragon Ball FighterZ review. Critic Peter Brown wrote, "FighterZ is complex and distinct enough to be enjoyed by fighting game competitors, but there's no question that it's been designed to tap into the hearts of Dragon Ball's most dedicated fans, and no doubt those same qualities will win people over who've never given the series a chance."

The latest mainline Pokemon games, Pokemon Sword and Shield, released last year, and since then Nintendo has released the first of two DLC packages as part of the Pokemon Sword and Shield expansion pass.

If you're shopping for someone who missed out on Pokemon Sword and Shield last year, there's now an option to buy either one of the base games bundled with the full expansion pass. There's no discount for doing so--the bundle costs $90, the full price of the game and expansion--but it'd make a nice gift for a die-hard Pokemon fan. The games received a 9/10 in GameSpot's Pokemon Sword and Shield review for their rewarding raids, free exploration, and more.
