Make no mistake, somewhere buried deep inside of this is the nexus of a very good game potentially in the future, should Nintendo and Intelligent Systems choose to follow up on it- but as it stands right now, Codename STEAM comes with enough issues that any recommendation would be littered with caveats.
Unfortunately, Codename STEAM, while having a rock solid foundation, seems to suffer from some amount of shallowness as well as some shockingly amateurish mistakes, which do make one take pause and wonder how a developer that has been working on turn based strategy games for over two decades managed to release a product in this state.
Developed by a studio which pioneered the turn based strategy game genre, what could possibly go wrong with this game, right? Splatoon may be the game that got all the mainstream attention, but Nintendo debuted two new IPs this year- the unsung one is the new 3DS game developed by Intelligent Systems, of Fire Emblem and Advance Wars fame. When unveiled at E3 last year, the game garnered some attention from the press and public for its take on the XCOM and Valkyria Chronicles formula.
