Editor’s Note: Today, September 27th, would have marked the 6th anniversary of Dragalia Lost. To celebrate, we are re-publishing a piece we created for its 5th anniversary. Enjoy, and thank you, Mr. Lost! With the recent announcement that Mario Kart Tour will no longer be getting new content, I’ve been…
Back in the ’90s, Nintendo, Sega, and Sony were locked in what is now commonly referred to as “The Console Wars”—a fierce rivalry between gaming giants that played out through advertisements, lawsuits, and even, in one instance, a public feud in front of Congress over video game violence. While Nintendo,…
There are many reasons to celebrate what Nintendo is doing in the gaming industry from both a creative and hardware perspective (especially when it comes to pricing), and the best place to do so right now is at the Nintendo Museum in Kyoto, Japan. The museum is an entire building…
The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles—you may have heard of them. Not only are they an ’80s Saturday morning cartoon staple, but they’re also video game stars. And there is no video game genre that the Turtles are more lauded for than the beat-’em-up genre. Whether it’s in your local arcade…
Here we go again. June 2024’s Elite Raid event featuring Mega Rayquaza had a few hiccups (not showing Elite Raids 24 hours prior, lack of Elite Raids at Gyms, etc.). So, once again, Niantic is hosting a makeup event. Luckily, this time, Mega Rayquaza will be available in “Raids” (Mega…
For Pokémon GO’s 2024 GO Fest, we’re taking a trip back to Alola. The Sun and Moon theme is prevalent with Pikachu wearing sun and moon crowns, Unown letters that spell Day and Night, Costumed Umbreon and Espeon, Necrozma finally debuting worldwide, the fusion mechanic concerning Dusk Mane and Dawn…

Pokémon GO Fest 2024: Global is almost here, but Generation VII’s Ultra Beasts can’t wait. Shiny Buzzwole, Shiny Pheromosa, and Shiny Xurkitree debut worldwide, but they won’t be available in Five-Star Raids for long! Ultra Beasts will be swapping in and out daily, before all entering the Raid rotation on…
A new Raid has appeared in Pokémon GO! Announced on Friday, October 14th, 2022 via the official Pokémon GO blog and official Pokémon GO social media channels, Trainers can now participate in Elite Raids. One big question though – what are Elite Raids? Elite Raids are a new type of…
Square Enix’s wave of HD-2D titles have effectively never missed. Whether you’re drawn to them for the amazing visuals that led to that designation or the various flavors of RPG gameplay and storytelling that fill these gorgeously realized worlds, it’s hard to deny their excellency in at least one regard….
Summer Game Fest has come and gone, and with it the opportunity to preview the next entry in the Sonic the Hedgehog series. Last year brought on Sonic Superstars, a new twist on familiar classic gameplay, and this year was… well, that but different. The return of Sonic Generations has…
Nintendo’s ability to get people to rebuy and replay the same games shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone. The fact I’ve lost count of the amount of systems I’ve played Kirby’s Adventure on is fairly damning (for them and for me) and yet I just can’t help myself. That prevalence…
A new season begins in Pokémon GO and the first of four Pokémon GO Fest 2024 events is happening this weekend. For Trainers not partaking in Japan’s GO Fest event, we’ll get to celebrate a tad thanks to the Stadium Sights event. This short four-day event will make one debut…
Raid Battles made the jump from Pokémon’s Generation VIII (Sword and Shield) to Generation IX (Scarlet and Violet). While similar, the big difference this time around is the Terastal phenomenon, where Pokémon’s type can change to one of the 18 different types available in-game. Not to mention, Pokémon will receive…
It’s still surreal to know that a live-action Legend of Zelda movie is being produced by Sony Pictures. With Nintendo and Sony being strong rivals in the console space, it’s almost as if we’re living in a bizarro world where cats and dogs live in absolute harmony. However strange the…
