Sora coming to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate was, in terms of hopes and dreams, a miracle. Sure, Square Enix was onboard with the series since Cloud broke those limits, but unlocking Disney’s heart was a tall order.

It’s nearly time to head back to Shibuya, with NEO: The World Ends with You releasing in just 20 days. The countdown’s been ticking for a long, long time but even with a demo now available Square Enix saw fit to share another batch of info on the game ahead…
For “anniversaries,” “rolling,” and “Sega” today’s main attraction is Sonic the Hedgehog’s 30th. He’s not the only one in the spotlight though, as today’s also the 20th anniversary of the original Monkey Ball arcade game! What would go on to become the Super Monkey Ball series began with a banana…
A month and some change from now the Reapers’ Game begins once again. Rindo and the Wicked Twisters will have their hands full with the Shinjuku Reapers encroaching on Shibuya, and we’ve gotten a fresh look at some that were spotted in past trailers. These include the aloof Ayano, condescending…
If you’re looking to add a friend from your island life to your real one, San-ei has got you covered. A new wave of Animal Crossing: New Horizons plushes are on the way from their All Star Collection line. Focusing on visitors and special NPCs, it’s refreshing to see some…
It may lack an official release outside of Japan, but Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War has left an undeniable mark on the series. Be it the influence Sigurd would have on future lords like Hector and Ike, splitting the game into two distinct timeframes, or the general refinements…
