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…
It’s over a month until the opening of Super Nintendo World at Universal Studios Hollywood, but the gears are starting to spin ahead of time to make sure everything is running smoothly – technical rehearsals or a “soft opening” of the park has begun, with certain lucky and patient Universal…
Pokémon GO’s GO Battle Day event is spanning out into a two-day, all-weekend-long battle extravaganza (appropriately dubbed GO Battle Days via the official Pokémon GO blog and GO Battle Weekend: Steven Stone in January 2023’s infographic). That means Trainers will get two days of extended battling sets (that’s 100 battles…
In our review of the game we called Dragon Quest Treasures a charmingly simple adventure that’s sure to satisfy any fan of the franchise. If you’re still on the fence, however, you’re in luck as Square Enix has shared a demo for the game. The Dragon Quest Treasures…
First 4 Figures has been on a roll lately, with more Sonic statues than you can shake a Chao at, but it’s been a while since the company tackled the Mario series. Thankfully that’ll soon be changing! Joining New Super Mario Bros. and Luigi’s Mansion 3 is a new statue…
It’s that time of year – Amazing Games Done Quick (AGDQ) dashes on ahead all throughout the week, and you can tune in to see some absolutely mind-melting abilities from the very best speedrunners out there. And one of the best showcases so far was a four-way race in Super…
The Public Investment Fund (PIF) of Saudi Arabia has raised its stake in Nintendo, according to recent filings. The PIF, after investing in multiple other companies in the industry (including EA, Activision Blizzard, Take-Two, Nexon, Capcom, Koei Tecmo, SNK, and a $1 billion stake in Embracer Group) obtained a 5%…
With Pokémon Scarlet and Violet the Pokédex finally surpasses 1000 entries, hitting 1008 in total. It’s an overwhelming amount, and this latest almost nine minute long video from The Pokémon Company just goes to show how impressive the selection truly is. It’s not just each individual Pokémon either…
Kirby can’t always be out there adventuring. Every now and then he and his Dream Friends need a break, and there’s no better way than the series’ staple sub-games. Kirby’s Return to Dream Land Deluxe is going even further on that, including not just new sub-games but some familiar favorites…
Kirby is bringing back his Wii era adventure, and with it dozens of Copy Abilities! While Kirby and the Forgotten Land took this series standard in a new direction, Return to Dream Land Deluxe marks a “return” to the games’ more traditional style. Read on to learn about the new…
Ubisoft released two big games over the 2022 holiday season but it turns out their financial performance left something to be desired at the company. In a recent press release, co-founder Yves Guillemot outright stated he was “clearly disappointed by [the company’s] recent performance”, specifically citing both Mario + Rabbids:…
Fire Emblem Engage releases next week, and I’m pretty stoked. Obviously there’s a bit of caution (I’ve been disappointed by new entries in the past), but the character designs, combat, and overall feel look amazing. My optimism isn’t shared by everyone though – particularly those who fear that the inclusion…
Well, it finally happened – there are over a thousand Pokémon in existence. A big 1,000. Well, 1,008 technically. And while it’s unlikely that all of these many Pokémon types will ever be found in the same game together, it’s still worth celebrating the whole bunch of them – as…
