Despite the success Nintendo has been having with the Switch 2, there are a ton of avenues where it seems to be backsliding into corporate overreach this generation. One such is a line in its EULA that gives Nintendo the freedom to brick your Switch 2 console if the company…

Kirby is Nintendo’s unsung hero when it comes to spinoffs. Yes, Mario is the main man, with a much longer list of appearances on this or any system. You can’t really argue with the likes of Kart and Party, but golf’s a different story. Mario had already hit the links…
Despite taking place in the distant year of 20XX, Mega Man and I go way back. In fact, ever since my first mechanical steps as a bionic busting botling, I’ve been positively obsessed with the titular Man of Mega. I played all his games, bought most the action figures…

It was one of the most intriguing games to come out of the Nintendo Switch’s reveal event back in January, but we haven’t heard a peep from Square Enix regarding the pixelated RPG Project Octopath Traveler since. Thankfully that’ll soon be changing, with the game getting a presentation slot during…
Crossovers have a way of drawing me in, even if one or more halves of the formula aren’t exactly known to me. I can go on and on about Mario, but other than “those screaming things that used to be Rayman related” I knew next to nothing about Rabbids. Factor…
Final Fantasy is a franchise with a history strongly tied to Nintendo, but the Japanese giant’s focus on cartridges as they entered the 3D era caused an infamous divide between companies. Ever since, we haven’t seen a single mainline game in the series hit a Nintendo home console. That may…
This week in the Nintendo eShop: Jackbox brings the party to Switch, Telltale gives Minecraft its patented point-and-click treatment and a new dynamic duo wiggles onto 3DS. The Wii U is looking pretty dead with nary a release making the cut this week. Fortunately, the fantastic FAST Racing Neo is…
While the world still recovers from the bloodshed (er, inkshed) and accusations of a broken point system following the Great Condiment War, Nintendo has felt the need to divide the community again. The theme for the next Splatfest is: “Which superpower would you choose: flight or invisibility?” Nintendo of Europe…
November 17’s still a bit of a ways away, but with the recent news on Dusk Lycanroc in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon maybe ordering the game’s on your mind. If you’re in the US the online Pokémon Center’s got you covered with a little extra something, though luck’s going…
