The folks over at Digital Foundry have taken a look at what many consider an impossible port for the Nintendo Switch 2, Cyberpunk 2077. Announced as one of the premiere third-party launch titles for the system (and one of the only third-party games with the full game on a cartridge),…
Since the Nintendo Switch 2 is the hot new thing in gaming right now, it only makes sense that other companies would be worried about the device eating into their sales. As one of Nintendo’s two main rivals for the past 30 years, Sony has gone head-to-head with Nintendo’s consoles…
The launch week for the Switch 2 has seen Nintendo’s latest device put up some incredible numbers by any measure. With the device becoming the fastest-selling console of all time and even launching in Japan to nearly one million units (which might be higher if we take My Nintendo Store…
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…
There once was a time. Not too long far off, in fact scarcely over a decade ago. It was a time in which the words “EarthBound” or “Mother” were not uttered by Nintendo outside of Super Smash Bros. titles. Despite pleas for Virtual Console releases, one of the most dedicated…
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…
Plenty of video game franchises have spawned trading card games, though it’s usually the ones with massive casts of characters and creatures that fare the best. Shin Megami Tensei could be seen as a perfect fit, and once it was just that, having a Japanese TCG that ran between 1997…
The holiday season started in Pokémon GO earlier this month with the Winter Holiday Part 1 event. Now its Part 2 counterpart will start up and deliver this year’s Costumed Pokémon. Joining the Costumed Pokémon from previous winter holiday events (specifically 2019, 2020, and 2021) are Eevee and all the…
Ah, Joy-Con drift. The bane of every humble Nintendo Switch owner. The problem has been so pervasive that multiple legal entities have become involved in reprimanding Nintendo for releasing a product this way – and the latest is UK Consumer Report group Which?, which has found evidence that the notorious…
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…
Octopath Traveler II is just around the corner so it’s a perfect time to reflect on the wide array of 2DHD games Square Enix has released for the Switch. One of the more intriguing experiments with the style was Triangle Strategy, which swapped the traditional JRPG gameplay with tactical battles…
Nintendo kicked off a special holiday House of Indies week yesterday, where a number of indie games would get spotlighted each day (like an Indie World presentation stretched out over multiple days). On day two, four more scintillating titles were shown off, a couple of which are available right now….
December 2022’s special two-day Community Day recap event is over for Pokémon GO and Niantic hasn’t wasted any time in announcing the next event. With January, not only will we see the start of the new year, but we’ll also get back to the standard one-day Community Day event. Oh,…
