The announcement of Yakuza 0: Director’s Cut coming to Switch 2 was an exciting one for fans of the series. Not only was the classic installment of the franchise getting a new lease of life on a portable system, but it would also contain some extra cutscenes and a multiplayer…
During the hands-on time I had with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate I was trying to grab as many Assist Trophies and Poké Balls as possible, just waiting to see who’d pop out. I’m happy to say that my first new Pokémon was Alolan Raichu, easily one of the best additions…
Three years ago today, the world lost one of the most beloved game creators of all time, as the legendary Satoru Iwata passed away. Iwata was cherished by audiences worldwide for his humorous skits during Directs, his programming genius in his earlier years, and for being a passionate and genial…

One of my personal favorite announcements from this year’s E3 was confirmation that Tales of Vesperia would not only be getting ported to modern consoles, but that the Nintendo Switch would be among them. Often regarded as one of the best games in the Tales franchise, I’m very eager to…
I don’t exactly browse the Switch News channels often, but sometimes when I start up my system I’m glad to see they’re there. This time around it was because I spotted a notification on an interview with Masahiro Sakurai, fielding some questions on Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While some of…
While there is very little info to go on at this time, it appears that Nintendo was shooting something at Universal CityWalk in Hollywood yesterday. Twitter account @insideuniversal tweeted images of what appears to be a very small Mario themed set in front of a stage, and a sign that…
Another week, another new song added to the mix of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. This time around it’s from Mega Man, specifically a medley of songs from Mega Man IV. This Famicom fourquel may’ve marked the start of these games becoming somewhat samey, but thanks to this new track I…
After pre-release coverage in Japan, confirmed English support in the Asian version, and hints of a localization from Australia, it looks like another country is getting in on the Drum ‘n Fun. The latest entry in the Taiko no Tatsujin rhythm series is now apparently pre-orderable in GAME stores in…
