These days, I very rarely play games in handheld mode. I hold nothing against the idea of it, but if I can play a game on the big screen, I will, and the Nintendo Switch is brilliant for allowing the option with practically every game on the platform. There’s one…

Review: Etrian Odyssey Nexus

Categories: 3DS, Reviews

When I was given the review code for Etrian Odyssey Nexus, I walked over to the corner of my room where my 3DS lay. I’d barely touched it in the past year. A small layer of dust had settled on its top. Part of the casing was beginning to wear…

Review: GRIS on Switch
