LEGO and Animal Crossing is a match made in heaven, but there was one curious omission from the line when it launched earlier this year: K.K. Slider. How could one of the most iconic characters of modern gaming not be included alongside villagers like Julian and Bunnie? Who even are…

Worthy of its very own Splatfest, Nintendo Tokyo’s newest Splatoon merch collection is all about the series’ Squids and Octos. It’s also extremely fresh, eye-catching, “Woomy!”, and making the Splatoon fandom outside of Japan extremely jealous of this exclusive collection. Dubbed “SQUID or OCTO Splatoon”, the collection consists of gear…

There are very few items from Pokémon lore as memorable as the one million yen bike from Pokémon Red and Blue. It was iconic, it was fast, it was super expensive. Luckily for you (if you’re in Japan at least), The Pokémon Company has announced that it’s giving out ONE…
Namco is one of the oldest video game companies around, producing some of the most iconic arcade games of the medium’s golden age. Although it’s now joined at the hip with Bandai, the company still celebrates that legacy, and now it’s opened up its artwork vault to share some history….
It’s no secret that I have a huge soft spot for the Nintendo 64, and even now, nearly 25 years later, I get excited anytime I find something new or unusual discovered or created for the console. Whether it’s the recently uncovered Dinosaur Planet beta build, or a speedun of…
