Hot on the heels of the recent release of Magic The Gathering’s massive Final Fantasy crossover set, featuring cards representing characters, events, and places from each mainline Final Fantasy game, Wizards of the Coast has announced today that their video game crossover shenanigans are far from over with the reveal…
While Nintendo Switch 2 stock here in America seems to be mostly acceptable, that hasn’t been the case for other countries. In Japan, in particular, it seems that eager customers have not been able to acquire the console for the past month, which can be frustrating when you want to…
Last night, Nintendo announced that the previously revealed Super Mario Strikers would be heading to NSO’s GameCube app on July 3rd, 2025. As one of the first games announced for the service when Nintendo did its full Switch 2 unveiling, fans were wondering if we’d need to wait eons to…
UPDATE (Tuesday, September 26th, 2023): A free update has been released adding additional chapters and puzzles. The review below is only about Storyteller’s original release and does not cover elements from the free update. (Other than the desire for a free update with more puzzles!) Storyteller appeared on…
It’s impossible to imagine the current state of the Kirby series without Kirby’s Return to Dream Land. The culmination of about four other attempts at a fresh game for the tough pink puff, the Wii era adventure paved the way for future games all the way up to Kirby and…
Despite being a follow up to 2018’s Octopath Traveler, Octopath Traveler II is an entirely standalone experience. The new title features a brand new setting, eight new stories, and eight new travelers to experience those stories with. A lot of the bones are the same here – the eight new…
My favorite 3DS game was Theatrhythm Final Fantasy Curtain Call. I figured it would be best to get that out of the way now. It was the title I spent the most time with on the system, aside from Animal Crossing: New Leaf. As a result of this extensive exposure,…
Fire Emblem as a franchise has had a zigazag of quality over the past decade or so. After stylistically bland DS remakes of some of the series’ earliest games (one of which didn’t even make it out of Japan) came Fire Emblem: Awakening, a game so good it literally changed…
I’ll likely never forget the first time I played Persona 4 Golden, chipping away day-by-day on my PlayStation Vita over the August of 2012, forever entrenching it in my mind as a playable summer vacation. For the longest time I considered it the biggest and best reason to buy Sony’s…
Persona is a smash hit blockbuster nowadays, but it wasn’t always that way. Once a humble spinoff of the Shin Megami Tensei series, the first couple games were more conventional (if well regarded) RPGs – and then 2006 brought Persona 3, a title that catapulted the series into the spotlight….
Another Dragon Quest spinoff is about to make the Nintendo Switch its home, and this time around it’s starring everyone’s favorite thief from Dragon Quest XI, Erik, along with his sister Mia. Set in a time before the events of Dragon Quest XI, Dragon Quest Treasures starts with a young…
Author’s note: The following review was played on the PlayStation 5 version of the game which runs at 60 fps at 4K. The Nintendo Switch version of the game will target 30 fps at 720p. We’ll have a full breakdown of the Switch version of the game as soon as…
The Pokémon series has managed to deliver five distinct RPG adventures across three generations on the Switch. That’s more than any other system before it, all in under six years, with impressive sales numbers fueling each of them. Even if we discount the Ilca developed Gen IV remakes, you’d think…
In almost every genre, the most innovative and charming games come from indie developers. RPGs, metroidvanias, and basically everything that isn’t a AAA cinematic action adventure rpg crafting extravaganza is pushed forward by titles from smaller teams – except, perhaps, the humble farming/town simulator. The number of games trying to…
Oh Bayonetta 3, you long withheld delight. First announced all the way back in 2017, PlatinumGames’ return to their flagship franchise was well overdue. Busy as they were between then and now, the buttery smooth action and unrivaled tone of the series was sorely missed. And here we are at…
