This week was the grand opening of Universal Orlando’s newest theme park, Epic Universe. Included as one of the five lands within is Super Nintendo World, Nintendo’s first step into the theme park world. And while park is split into two — one based on Mario and the other on…
With only a week left to go in May, it’s time for Nintendo to spring some new classic games onto its NSO service. Instead of a broad selection of titles, this month sees four new Game Boy games getting added, with one being a ludicrously expensive Game Boy Color game….
Update (2/27/22): Universal Studios Japan has shared a pair of fun videos ahead of tomorrow’s NO LIMIT! Parade.

Any of you remember Pokémon Pinball? There were two whole little pinball spinoffs for the franchise, one for the original Game Boy and one for the Game Boy Advance, and they were pretty well regarded. It appeared that the series just quietly ended after those two entries, but as an…
It’s been a month and a half since Doraemon Story of Seasons: Friends of the Great Kingdom was released, alongside its first DLC Pack. There are still two more DLC Pack releases for the game, and today Bandai Namco US announced some details for DLC Pack 2. According to…

The special holiday House of Indies week is beginning to wind down, but there are still a ton more indie games wrapped under the tree. After three days of features, another four games are up today. Here, as always, is the lowdown: Melatonin (Available Now) – A…
Ready to face the fury? Megaera from Hades is the latest to get the Nendoroid treatment, her stark features and harsh glare minimized to an endearing chibi form. (Don’t tell her I said that, though Zagreus would probably quip something worse.) She comes equipped with her whip, the Skull Earring…

Nintendo’s special House of Indies celebration is ongoing, after two days strong. Another four titles were shown off today, including a couple now released. Here’s the lowdown again: Potion Craft: Alchemist Simulator (Spring 2023) – Collect herbs, mash them up, and infuse them into potions in a…
Tricolor Turf Wars are one of the most inventive wrinkles of Splatoon 3 Splatfests, a unique three-way battle for dominance that can’t be executed in normal gameplay. Up until now, though, participation in them has been fickle, based purely on matchmaking chance – but now, after the big seasonal update…
