Here we go again, folks. As 2024 finally comes to a close, the Switch 2 rumor mill is running at full speed as we all anxiously await any official announcement from Nintendo about their next console. While Nintendo remains tight-lipped, more information continues to trickle out from unofficial sources, such…
Mama Mia! It’s a holiday miracle. Last night, Nintendo surprised fans with the release of the entire Super Mario 64 soundtrack on Nintendo Music! 36 tracks from the Super Mario 64 soundtrack are now on Nintendo Music! Featuring beloved classics like: “It’s-a Me, Mario!” and “Stage Boss”https://t.co/t5QsdKKxbW pic.twitter.com/gnOdVLJITR —…
First 4 Figures, the premiere video game statue manufacturer, has announced a brand new “We <3 Kirby” statue for pre-order on its website. Featuring the pink puffball standing on a pedestal and holding a heart with the words We <3 Kirby, it’s a nice little figurine that would look great…
Last month, we reported that a brand-new arcade-styled Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles title called Shredder’s Revenge was in development from Tribute Games and would be published by DotEmu in collaboration with Nickelodeon later this year. After a tubular animated feature showcasing the game’s story, characters, and soundtrack debuted revealing the title’s…
With its Eyvind Earle-like art style, charming characters, and fascinating (and fun) time-traveling battle mechanics, Cris Tales has been on plenty of gaming wishlists – mine included – since 2019. While its planned release date of November 17th, 2020 slipped into “early 2021” and then July 2021, we can now…
Perhaps one of the biggest surprises from Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase presentation earlier today was the reveal of OlliOlli World, a new installment in the addictive OlliOlli franchise that’s introducing 3D elements into the traditionally 2D skateboarding series. OlliOlli World appears to have a bigger story focus than its predecessors,…
Initially announced at last year’s The Game Awards, Road 96 opened today’s Indie World Showcase. The procedural narrative hitchhiking game, which has 148,268 route combinations, gave us a glimpse of these different narratives in its first-ever gameplay trailer. The country of Petria has gone to hell. The regime…
The last time we heard news of 3DClouds’ nautical action-RPG King of Seas, it was the bittersweet report that the game was delayed into May for further polish and a broader localization. Thanks to 3DClouds’ new publishing partnership with Team17, their promise has been fulfilled, and the pirate sim will…
Few games have tapped into the potential of a Mesoamerican setting, meaning whenever one does, it stands out. Aztech Forgotten Gods certainly does, and then some. The game is set in an alternate universe Mesoamerica that never saw contact with European powers from across the Atlantic, meaning the capital Tenochtitlan…
While character and series mashups are always attention-grabbing, there’s no denying the power of a great genre combination. For Archvale, that mix is between RPGs and bullet hells, and that’s exactly how you get my attention. Of course “bullet” might not be the best word there, so I’m going to…
It feels like it’s been awhile since we had a good “One more thing…” announcement from a Nintendo presentation, which made the end of today’s Indie World Showcase all the more special. As the hosts were wrapping up, it seems their signal was interrupted, and viewers were presented…
While Konami isn’t quite the video game juggernaut it used to be, it still finds time to bring out games from time to time, and they’re usually on the smaller scale. Case in point, today’s Indie World presentation featured a look at an all new game from the studio, developed…
Usually here on Nintendo Wire we report on new game announcements, but there’s nothing to report on this time around. A quirky meta game definitely didn’t release in 2015 as part of a game jam and see an expansion years later with the subtitle “Wrong Dimension.” Not at all. A…
The latest Indie World Showcase is here, promising 20 minutes of fresh indie game updates for the Nintendo Switch! Tune in below starting at 9 a.m. PT!
There are some things you can count on when it comes to the eShop, and among them is nonograms. Specifically the Picross S series from Jupiter, which has continuously delivered handheld number-puzzle fun for decades now. Believe it or not the Switch is home to five Picross S titles already,…
