Review:

My Friend Pedro x Shotgun Cop Man Bundle, released in 2025 on Nintendo Switch, is a Compilation of the two named games, both Action-Platformers with 2-Stick Shooter mechanics.

I have previously separately reviewed these games. Here is what I thought of each of the games in this collection:

GameGenre# of PlayersScore
My Friend PedroAction-Platformer / 2-Stick Shooter1A-
tl;drMy Friend Pedro is an Action-Platformer with Two-Stick Shooter controls that has players involved in acrobatic gunfights at the command of a talking banana. This game’s intense, ridiculous action is a blast to play, and while there’s a bit of repetition here and there, for the most part this game does an amazing job keeping things fresh and entertaining. A must-have for action game fans.
Shotgun Cop ManAction-Platformer / 2-Stick Shooter1A-
tl;drShotgun Cop Man is an Action-Platformer and 2-Stick Shooter about the titular Shotgun Cop Man who has been sent on a mission to hell to arrest Satan, with this silly story joined by gameplay that has players using their firearms to propel themselves around the air as they fight demons. Movement and combat in this game is an absolute delight, and the absurdity of the story only adds to the joy of this game. The only thing lacking is the PC version’s level creator, but otherwise this is a must-have Action-Platformer on Nintendo Switch.

In short, both of these games are outstanding, silly action-packed games, and it’s hard to pick a favorite. My Friend Pedro’s acrobatics and gunplay is just so fun, but Shotgun Cop Man’s way of tying those two things together makes something that is both simpler and yet more complex at the same time. They’re both wonderful, that’s all I can say – they are both wonderful Action games.

Well, that just leaves the question of value, then. Separately, these two games would cost a total of $30, and together, they’re $25. Not a huge savings, but not bad. Unfortunately, when it comes to sale prices the story isn’t so great, with the separate games coming to a total of $10, while this bundle’s only sale price thus far has been $16.50.

Well, that’s a shame. I really wanted to tell you that you absolutely need to get My Friend Pedro x Shotgun Cop Man Bundle, because both of its games are phenomenal. Unfortunately, the savings just don’t justify that – you’re better off waiting for sales and getting both games separately. But definitely do that, because the games themselves are truly excellent.

tl;dr – My Friend Pedro x Shotgun Cop Man Bundle is a Compilation containing the two named games, both phenomenal Action-Platformer and 2-Stick Shooter titles with ridiculous, joyously fun gameplay. Unfortunately, the price of this bundle just isn’t as good as getting the games individually when they’re on sale, so I suggest you do that instead.

Grade: B+
