Normally when a series grips me the way Fire Emblem has, I deep dive into as many releases as possible. Anyone who was introduced by Super Smash Bros. “Wait, who’s Marth?” Melee will tell you that for the longest time that was a very shallow pool. Being in a post-Awakening…
Remember how cool it was to get a Nintendo Power in the mail? If you’re old enough to remember them, like myself, video game magazines were a big part of the 90’s and 00’s. Now, if you’re looking to reignite that feeling of reading through an old gaming magazine, the…
The original Famicom release that kicked off the Fire Emblem franchise got its first release in English today via the Nintendo Switch eShop. To mark the occasion, Nintendo UK has released a new, 20 second long trailer that focuses more on its legacy. Check it out: You can…
The last time Capcom pushed a “mini” system in the vein of Nintendo’s NES and SNES Classics, it was more of a “macro” device, being two arcade sticks inside a massive Capcom logo. This next attempt is decidedly more compact, but it’s still a little bulkier than you might expect….
The original Metal Gear Solid was an iconic revelation when it first released back in 1998 and it’s still a cultural touchstone for the video game industry – everyone recognises that alert sound effect. Now you’ll be able to show your love for the classic title with some new merch…

Get ready to hum the bassline and fly like a butterfly, because Sega’s getting funky with their latest 60th Anniversary retrospective. Previously they came out swinging with the Crazy Taxi series, but this time it’s all about cel shaded style and a fight for free expression. That’s right – it’s…
It was previously announced that Bandai Namco had “a lot planned” for the Tales of series’ 25th anniversary. While we’ve seen things like a new mobile game (Tales of Crestoria) come along and the next motherships title (Tales of Arise, sadly not coming to Switch) get delayed, last week some…
Out of nowhere, Nintendo has announced that it will finally be localizing the very first Fire Emblem game – Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light, which originally released for the Famicom in Japan way back in April, 1990. The new release will feature the ability to rewind…
