With how infrequently Nintendo posts Pokétoon episodes, you’d be forgiven for not remembering them. Thankfully, Nintendo hasn’t forgotten about these shorts, and a new one is now available on YouTube. While there are no English captions at the moment, it’s not hard to figure out what is going on here….
In honor of the impending release of Pokémon Legends: Z-A this month, the Pokémon Center Online will be selling life-sized plushes of the latest Legends’ games three starter Pokémon in just a few weeks. For those out of the loop, that includes Tepig, Totodile, and Chicorita. You can soon bring…
In the same week that we reported on a Redditor mashing an N64 controller together with a Game Boy Micro, it’s our pleasure to present you with a fully functional version of Lego’s Game Boy replica model. Thanks to the efforts of Natalie the Nerd, the rather cute and amusing…
As Kirby’s 35th anniversary came and went last month I couldn’t help but feel a longing to replay the first Kirby game I experienced as a child, but alas, I did not have access to an N64 at the time. To add to this misfortune, Mario Golf took the Nintendo…
Reggie Fils-Aimé may have departed from Nintendo of America, but he has certainly not forgotten his role as the company’s president and all of the engagement with fans he had during his tenure.

The World Video Game Hall of Fame, part of the National Museum of Play in Rochester, New York, has inducted several classics into its lineup each year since 2015. Every entry so far has been more than deserving, and the 2022 lineup of games is no different: Ms. Pac-Man, Dance…
If there is one game that Reggie Fils-Aimé will ever be associated with on a personal level (well, besides Wii Fit) it’ll be one he never released. The cries of “come on Reggie, give us Mother 3” have echoed since 2006, with the EarthBound fandom of the late ’00s almost…
The Switch Online Expansion Pack has seen steady growth since it began. N64 and Sega Genesis games have been added to the service semi-regularly, but the main “value” kicks in when it comes to Switch DLC. Animal Crossing: New Horizons set the stage, Mario Kart 8 Deluxe has boosted the…
Over the years, the people have cried out for Nintendo to Hire This Man, and yet they never seem to, which means that This Man, Unhired, will continue to make hyper-realistic Unreal Engine mockups for our viewing pleasure. This Man (which does not refer to one specific person but rather…
You can make a laundry list of theoretical reasons why Mother 3 hasn’t seen a Western release over the years, both plausible and conspiratorial — poor release timing on an increasingly outdated console, general obscurity, Reggie Fils-Aimé just liked drinking the tears of Mother fans (I saw that one a…
Fans of retro N64 platformers, drunk squirrels, or plush poo will be happy today: Fangamer has released several new items for their line of merchandise for Conker’s Bad Fur Day. In addition to the previous shirts, pins, and plushes, fans of the crude Rare title will have some new stuff…
