Fighting Force Collection Switch is the boxed Nintendo Switch release of two classic 3D beat ’em ups, Fighting Force (1997) and Fighting Force 2 (1999), published on cartridge by Limited Run Games. The copy we stock is the US edition rated ESRB Teen, it carries Limited Run Games number #311 on the box, and Nintendo’s official listing credits the Fighting Force brand to Square Enix. Limited Run Games produces its physical releases in limited print runs, so this is a collector-friendly cartridge rather than an endless mass-market reprint.

What Fighting Force Collection Switch Includes
The cartridge holds both games in one package. In the original Fighting Force you pick one of four fighters, two men and two women, each with a different balance of strength and speed, and set out to stop the criminal mastermind Dr. Dex Zeng. The official description mentions dozens of moves per character, seven levels spread across 22 stages, and weapons that range from shotguns and grenades to rocket launchers. Fighting Force 2 shifts the focus to one hero, Hawk Manson, who investigates illegal human cloning carried out by the Knackmiche Corporation. His missions take place inside research and development facilities, the melee system is built around combination moves, and the publisher counts more than 20 weapons. Together the two titles cover the complete late-1990s run of the series.
Fighting Force Collection Switch in Handheld, Tabletop and TV Mode
Nintendo’s official store page lists all three Switch play modes: handheld, tabletop and TV. That suits a brawler built on short, punchy stages, because a single stage fits easily into a bus ride or a coffee break. You can start a level on the sofa with the console docked, lift the system out of the dock and carry on in your hands without losing your place. Nintendo lists the digital download at 961 MB, a small footprint by current standards, which shows how light these remasters are. For owners of the newer console, Nintendo’s US listing marks Fighting Force Collection Switch as supported on Nintendo Switch 2 and states that game behaviour is consistent with Nintendo Switch, so expect the same experience rather than a dedicated Switch 2 upgrade.
Two-Player Brawling on One Console
Nintendo’s European listing shows 1-2 players on a single system, and the original Fighting Force is described as playable solo or in co-op. Each player needs a compatible controller, so a pair of Joy-Con split between two people, or a Pro Controller plus one Joy-Con, does the job. The official text does not mention online play, so co-op in Fighting Force Collection Switch means two people in the same room. The publisher does not state whether Fighting Force 2 supports a second player, so treat the sequel as a solo campaign unless the in-game menu shows otherwise.
Modern Features Added by Limited Run Games
These are not bare copies of the old discs. Nintendo’s US store page lists save states, rewind, uprendering for a sharper picture, CRT filters for anyone who misses the look of a tube television, bonus content and a game selector that switches between the two titles from one menu. Rewind is especially handy on a handheld: when a crowd of enemies corners you, step back a few seconds instead of replaying the whole stage. Save states let you put the console to sleep mid-level and return later. The listing for Fighting Force Collection Switch does not detail what the bonus content contains, so we do not promise specific extras.
Why Pick the Switch Cartridge
The Limited Run Games store describes the collection as region-free, so this US box works on Switch consoles bought in the UAE. A physical cartridge can be lent, traded or kept on the shelf next to other Limited Run releases, and the number #311 on the spine places it inside that numbered line. If you play mostly away from the TV, Fighting Force Collection Switch is the natural choice, because the portable screen suits the quick, arcade-style structure of both games. Nintendo lists English as the language of the game.
Who This Is Not For
Fighting Force Collection Switch is rated ESRB Teen for Violence and Blood, so it is not aimed at young children. The publisher lists no online multiplayer; two-player play is local only. Both games are late-1990s designs with simple polygon graphics and traditional stage structure, so players who want a modern open-world action game or a long, detailed story will likely feel limited. Game text is in English only according to Nintendo’s listing, with no Arabic menus. Finally, this is a Nintendo Switch cartridge: it is listed as supported on Switch 2 with the same behaviour as on Switch, not as a native Switch 2 edition. If retro beat ’em ups do not interest you, a newer brawler is a better fit.
