Kirby’s 25th Anniversary website did the unthinkable: it somehow got even more cute. The character section of the site has updated to give a look at the four main players on Pop Star. Kirby, Waddle Dee, Meta Knight, and King Dedede have each gotten a separate section dedicated to them,…

Donkey Kong 3 is something of a forgotten gem in the Donkey Kong series.

Rather than climbing obstacles to rescue someone, Stanley only jumps up a…

Floor Kids has been one of my go to eShop standouts ever since it released. An easy to understand, head-to-head rhythm games steeped in b-boy culture and style, it’s one of a kind and easy to love. At least it was for me, which is why I’m excited…
There’s just some Splatfests that don’t translate well, but even with that in mind the theme for this next Japanese one is universal. Asking if you prefer flowers or dango, a type of dumpling, you’d be forgiven for thinking it’s just a simple spring time question. フェスの開催が告げられた。お題は「どっちを選ぶ？ 花 vs 団子」。期間は3月3日（土）15:00～3月4日（日）15:00。「花より団子」は、風流よりも実益を重んじるという意味の諺だ。美しい花を愛でるか、ごちそうに舌鼓を打つか。あなたが重視するのはどっち？…
