We’re getting closer and closer to the September 26th release of The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, and Nintendo has been consistently dropping more and more images of the game in action. A few days ago, Nintendo dropped an all-new trailer, showcasing the game’s Still World, and today, we…
Falinks has been in Pokémon GO since 2021, but gets to star in its very own Raid Day event thanks to the recent season being all about the Galar region. To sweeten the feature, Falink’s shiny version will debut. Plus, this event also overlaps with the GO All Out event…
Kirby, Kirby, Kirby. Chances are if you’ve read an article about the pink puffball on here it was written by me, and that dedication and consistency is completely intentional. This is my favorite Nintendo series and character, and even coming off of Star Allies I could go on and on…
Late April is a popular time to release Fire Emblem games, it would appear — after Awakening, Path of Radiance, Echoes, and the very first entry in the series celebrated birthdays just last week, today marks the 15th anniversary of Fire Emblem: Blazing Blade’s release in Japan. How time flies!…
For whatever reason, the 20th of April has been the release date for several significant games throughout the past 30 or so years. (As for why, we can only speculate.) And thus, it is with much celebration we say happy anniversary to the grand genre-creating strategy-RPG Fire Emblem, the godly…
The Switch has no shortage of local multiplayer titles, all of them embracing their new Joy-Con overlord. Whether designed with them in mind or not, the Switch’s trademark controller just makes playing with a friend anywhere at all easy as can be. I’m finding that where this shines most is…

When I wrapped up Kirby Star Allies I felt like I’d gotten plenty of joy, yet not without some concerns and quibbles — you can read all about those in my review. One thing that really stood out about the game’s identity was how celebratory and evocative of its history…
When you start playing a Japanese RPG you don’t usually expect something calming – typically there are burning villages, amnesiac heroes and world-ending prophecies within the first hour. Gust’s Atelier series has long worked against those assumptions, delivering an experience quite unlike any other JRPG out there. The aim? Building…
It’s a special day for a member of Nintendo royalty, as everybody’s favorite Purple Pikmin, Bowser impersonator, and all around meme machine Reginald Fils-Aimé celebrates his 57th birthday today. Reggie joined Nintendo in late 2003, but broke into the gaming consciousness — and all our hearts — with his E3…
Nintendo has truly been banking on (and making bank with) exploiting nostalgia the past few years, releasing both the NES Classic Edition and SNES Classic Edition to enormous amounts of demand — and artificial supply shortages. The two miniature consoles took gamers through some of the greatest games of the…
Back in March 2015, the late Nintendo President Satoru Iwata revealed a new “dedicated game platform” during a Q&A presentation for investors, code-named NX. Back then it was just a way to show them, and fans, that Nintendo wouldn’t be leaving the traditional gaming space any time soon, but little…
I rarely jump into sweeping generalizations, but it’s safe to say pretty much everyone knows PAC-MAN. Mazes, dots, ghosts, and one mouth-flapping yellow disc mix together to make one of the most iconic video games ever, to the point you can play it on most things with a screen one…
