A lovely coming of age drama... It's a very funny and touching film. Go to Full Review

C+
Anchored by four fine leading performances, the film finds its groove in that particular sweet spot of subversion, even if certain bits and pieces are far more satisfying than the sum of its parts. Go to Full Review
Wilson Kwong Film Inquiry 05/20/2020
Although Death of Nintendo may not be the most ingenious piece of filmmaking, it does manage to find a focal point of inspiration despite adhering to the very familiar tropes of the coming-of-age narrative. Go to Full Review
Panos Kotzathanasis Asian Movie Pulse 04/13/2020
"Death of Nintendo" seems to have been made with the best of intentions, and the presentation of the era definitely evokes a sense of nostalgia. In the end, however, it remains a rather faulty effort, which fails to retain interest until the end. Go to Full Review
Amber Wilkinson Eye for Film 03/18/2020
3/5

Stephen Saito Moveable Fest 03/04/2020
...although it will take some time for [the characters] to laugh about it, the endearing comedy lets audiences do so immediately. Go to Full Review
