I love to review games that are a perfect fit for the console I’m playing them on, as if they were made with the console in mind. Rift of The NecroDancer is one such game. I first saw it revealed as a Nintendo Switch release, so I have always thought…
According to a report from Vooks, it appears as if physical versions of “Switch 2 Enhanced” games will contain the full game and its upgrades on the same cartridge. This follows after a Nintendo UK rep stated otherwise. It’s safe to say that Nintendo has mostly botched the messaging around…
Booting up my Nintendo Switch to play Croc for the first time since I was a kid playing it on my PlayStation yielded largely the same results as it did in the ’90s. By World 3’s desert, I was dying repeatedly to seemingly endless pits, cursing out the lantern level…
Today Japanese magazine CoroCoro revealed more info on the next main line game in the Yo-Kai Watch series, which was announced back in April. No gameplay was shown, but there’s definitely a hint to its functionality and potential with this latest teaser. It looks like doors and keys…
Sonic the Hedgehog’s 27th birthday has just been celebrated with a livestream out of Japan and the upcoming Team Sonic Racing got the spotlight for a solid chunk. On top of showcasing the E3 2018 demo, three new characters were confirmed, covering Team Rose. These include the Speed character Amy…
One of the biggest disappointments at E3 2018 — for me at least — was the lack of a dedicated amiibo display on the show floor. While I felt pretty bummed, I was still happy that we got a look at the upcoming Smash amiibo during the Treehouse event and…
Sometimes one has to wonder just how much stuff in their house can pertain to a particular brand or company. Evidently, Sega does the same, as the company has announced that it will be releasing scented candles based on its Dreamcast and Mega Drive consoles. On Facebook, the company has…
There was a lot of new to see and play at E3 2018, and in the midst of all that I had to make time for something I’m plenty familiar with: Dragon Ball FighterZ. It’s been out for other platforms since January, with fans sharing their energy with Bandai Namco…
The only thing better than going to a good movie in the theaters is going with friends. The smell of popcorn, the silver screen, and the fun of talking about everything you loved and hated after the credits roll — who could resist? Looks like Kirby can’t, as a new…
Some games define a generation. Others, an entire genre. And if that bit of dramatism doesn’t foreshadow just how absurdly good Hollow Knight is, I don’t know what will. Surprise-released during E3 to the shock of many, Team Cherry’s derelict dungeon-diver is a Metroidvania for the ages; one that stands…
With Mario Tennis Aces out now, Nintendo’s put together an all new timeline to showcase upcoming Switch titles for the rest of 2018. Most of these were shown during E3 week in some way, while others are just waiting for their final release dates. (I’m looking at you, Dark Souls…
The biggest surprise for the upcoming Sonic Mania Plus is the return of Mighty the Armadillo and Ray the Flying Squirrel. Having these two long-lost characters back with the gang for their newest adventure has me waiting and wanting — in the meantime, we have a chance to see them…
March’s Nindie Showcase feels so far away now, yet we’re still seeing the games featured make their way to the Switch. Take Pode, for example: this beautiful exploration based co-op game has been biding its time ahead of release — there’s no way I’d forget a couple lead characters this…
The day has come for those who have been waiting for side-scrolling strategy game Kingdom: New Lands to come to Switch in physical form: both the standard version and Collector’s Edition are now available for pre-order at Limited Run Games’ store. The standard edition includes a reversible cover (as seen…
The follow-up to the cute and colorful Switch platformer Kid Tripp has its release date, with developer Four Horses confirming that Miles & Kilo will be launching via the eShop next month. The game has similar visuals and mechanics to its predecessor but adds in a sidekick. Levels can be…
