Pokémon TCG Pocket is pretty much all I can think about right now. The new card collecting app recently passed the 10 million download threshold and it’s now been estimated to have earned about $3 million per day, making $12 million in just four days since launch. According to mobilegamer,…
Raid Hour (also referred to as Legendary Raid Hour) started as an experiment in March 2019. Initially called Legendary Lunch Hour, Niantic set aside an hour on Wednesdays for Pokémon GO Trainers to find 5-Star (Legendary) Raids easier by increasing the appearance rates. After further testing, Raid Hour was renamed…
Everyone loves a random video game story involving celebrities and rapper Doja Cat gave us one heck of a Halloween story. Fans of Conker’s Bad Fur Day will likely remember the copious amounts of vulgarity and titillation the game provided, but I don’t think anyone ever thought some 23 years…

Hades continues to be my current Switch obsession, and while I’ve had no issues diving (or ascending?) through Supergiant Games’ Greek underworld rouge-like, some players have reported issues with their save files. Unfortunately, in some cases, it was previously possible to not have your file load. Thankfully though a patch…
It’s been a while since Min Min punched onto the scene in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate and fans have been eagerly awaiting to see which character is coming next to the game. Turns out the wait is almost over, as Nintendo is promising a short video presentation for tomorrow, October…
Surprisingly few games put you in the teeny-tiny shoes of a miniature protagonist, but indie developer Lionel “Seith” Gallat set out to break the mold back in 2016 with Ghost of a Tale. In the game, the minstrel mouse Tilo must venture through a medieval world, all on a quest…
Sending your opponents flying is at the core of Smash’s design, making fighters’ weights extra important. Maybe you’re high speed or have great aerial options but that can come at a cost – a cost that Ultimate’s next online tourney event is embracing. 【トーナメントイベント】10/2(金)から3日間、「ふわふわ軽い！ ライト級トーナメント」を開催！ 体重の軽いファイターだけが参加できるトーナメントで、勝ち進むほど豪華なスピリッツが手に入ります。#スマブラSP pic.twitter.com/ycVZH70RPQ — 大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ【スマブラ公式】…
Jump Rope Challenge was, and I say this in all seriousness, one of the biggest Switch surprises this year. Out of nowhere came this free, simple, exercise game that would only be available for a limited time. Well that time was going to be up today, but Nintendo decided to…

Fangamer has been pumping out tons of video game merchandise this past month based on retro and modern fan-favorite titles, including Metal Gear Solid and Conker’s Bad Fur Day. Today, the merchandise publishing company announced that Persona 4 will at last tune into their lineup of physical items with original…
While today’s Pokémon broadcast was framed as being about the upcoming Crown Tundra expansion for Pokémon Sword and Shield, the biggest treat for me personally was the special music video premiered at the end. Bump of Chicken’s Gotcha! and the animation that accompanied it went all out on looking back…
