In a surprising bit of news for fans of Nintendo’s Wii console, the legendary Homebrew Channel has ceased development, and its GitHub repository has been removed, effectively shutting down the piece of software. No one is certain when this occurred, but a user on Twitter posted a letter from the…
Splatoon 2 and its predecessor have been hosting big tournaments in Japan ever since their releases and rise to popularity, meaning there’s no better place to be a squid kid than the games’ home turf. With these events come promos and swag, and one of those pieces is the official…
The gyms are packed, the snacks are stashed, and everyone’s got their resolutions for the new year. That goes for Dream Land’s (and Patch Land’s) hero too, as this little clip shared by Nintendo of Europe displays. When left to his own devices, Kirby shows some surprising discipline by stretching…
Some games are incredibly easy to identify from across an arcade, and near that top of that list for me is Out Run. First released in 1986, the sit down cab and bright design mimicked its in-game ride and captured a certain, special feel immediately. Once you started playing it…
The Animal Crossing Twitter account is back at it again with its character tease! Three new animals will soon be joining the Pocket Camp roster. Have a look and make some guesses if you’re familiar with the 400+ animals that have graced the series in previous games! If you’re struggling…

I almost can’t believe Celeste is about to be one year old, but here we are with its birthday about two weeks away. Matt Thorson, the game’s designer, director, and writer; has already made it known the game was set to get an extra DLC chapter and today a few…
Not a lot of people understand just how much I owe to Fitness games. While it’s easy to discount these types of games as shovelware or a cash grab (depending on the player), they can mean a whole lot more. In fact, about 11 years ago, I sat down and…
Video game re-releases are happening all the time these days, and while some bring back lost gems and others add new and exciting features, other times they right wrongs. Tales of Vesperia released back in 2008 exclusively for the XBox 360, serving as one of the most notable releases for…
