Split Fiction, the latest co-op multiplayer game by developer Hazelight, launched on March 6th to critical acclaim. Shortly after launch, it was rumored that a movie adaptation was in the works for the game and we’ve now received confirmation on its existence, along with one of the stars as well…
As the “Year of Eevee” celebration continues, more and more merchandise centered around the beloved Evolution Pokémon continues to be revealed. Just last week a brand-new life-size Eevee plush was shown off, but that wasn’t to be all they had in store. A new batch of life-size plushies have been…
In a series of posts over on Twitter, former Capcom composer Masakazu Sugimori has suggested that Ace Attorney would not have become a franchise if it were released in the current gaming industry. As he explains, the initial sales numbers were so low that any modern publisher would have completely…
The Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess is a game that holds a very special place in my heart, as it was my first adventure through the land of Hyrule. The game was released in November of 2006, which means it’s been a little over 10 years since most made the…
Zelda games have always been about large scale, fantasy-tinged adventures. From directionless dungeon explorations to sky-faring sagas, there’s always been a sense of large and open spaces, which the upcoming Breath of the Wild is wholly embracing. Hyrule’s a big place, after all, so why not go big as can…
When Wind Waker hit store shelves back in 2003, I was six years old and barely knew how to hold a game controller properly, let alone play a fully fleshed out RPG. I had only received my first video game the year prior in the form of a Game Boy…
When one thinks of the best 2D Zelda game, the competition is generally considered to be quite limited. A Link to the Past reigns supreme as the favorite of the franchise for many, and while there are significant factions that dig the poignant surreal nature of Link’s Awakening or the…
With the year still being so fresh there’s something on many people’s minds: Time. Is there enough to stand by our New Year resolutions? Will the unknown future be better than the present? Could things have been done differently in the past? Questions that no one really has an answer…
I was very, very young when I first laid eyes upon The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time. I had gone over to my neighbor’s house for reasons I can’t remember, and watched as he pulled out a N64 with the cartridge already inside. He casually tossed me the strategy…
Link’s Awakening is without a doubt the most surreal, whimsical and influential entry in the entire Zelda franchise. It’s also one of the more grossly underappreciated ones, ironically overshadowed and sandwiched smack dab in the middle of what many consider to be the green-garbed hero’s most legendary 2D and 3D…
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past was the very first Zelda game I ever got to experience, and what a good game to start off with. I was far too young to get to play it, in fact I’m not even sure I could fully talk when…
It’s almost time – three years after Eiji Aonuma confirmed its existence, the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild will be hitting store shelves alongside the new Nintendo Switch on March 3rd. To get everyone hyped up and ready, we’ll be running a series of articles focusing on all…
With just a month to go until the release of the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, there’s plenty of reasons to reflect on Link’s past adventures. For 25 years, the formula for proper entries in the series has been nipped and tucked in many ways. Some of these…
I recently sat down with my six-year-old daughter and loaded up The Legend of Zelda on Wii U’s Virtual Console. As a lifelong Nintendo fan and a child of the ’80s and ’90s, I’ve played through the game far too many times to count, and I can barely remember my…
This past Tuesday, The Pokémon Company released Pokémon Duel in the West. The title, which came out in Japan last year under the name Pokémon Comaster, is a free-to-play mobile game that takes many of the monsters from the various Pokémon games, turns them into (virtual) amiibo-esque figurines, and creates…
