The year of wild collaborations continues! Super Monkey Ball Banana Rumble has revealed two new collaborations, featuring the iconic Kaiju Godzilla and the digital diva Hatsune Miku. Both collabs will be available on November 26th as a part of the big 2.0 update. While the update itself is free, Godzilla…
The history of the Fire Emblem franchise is one fraught with a lot of obscurity and uncertainty. With the franchise nearly being canceled entirely prior to the release of Fire Emblem: Awakening, it has been quite a winding path to get to where it is now. Despite these troubles, the…
Nintendo Switch Online is back with new icons, this time themed to Pokémon Scarlet and Violet. Celebrating the Shiny Rayquaza Tera Raid Battle event that will kick off in a few weeks, the icons are meant to get players excited for the battles ahead! In the meantime, you can enjoy…
Two musically inclined games appeared today during Nintendo’s Indie World Showcase. One is all about following a band’s journey in the LA music scene and another is part rhythm-based game, part dungeon crawler. Totally different, but both titles are coming to Nintendo Switch and will have your feet tapping to…
Yesterday’s Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak Digital Event didn’t waste much time diving right into some new info for the upcoming expansion, granting a new trailer that was then broken down in full. One returning monster and two brand-new variants were introduced this time around. Seregios, the fast-flying and…
The term “sacrificial lamb” is woven into the fabric of our culture, in reference to real life ritual sacrifice of the creatures in ancient religions — but what if one of those lambs was saved by an enigmatic stranger? And then started its own religion to worship the stranger? That’s…
Today’s Indie World was a fairly low key string of announcements, with no last minute stunners or showstopper drops (besides, of course, crabs). As such, the show concluded with some very quick rapid-fire clips of upcoming indie games, including some available today — and a port of a modern masterpiece….
It’s a big day for indie games, with the Indie World Showcase having just wrapped up, but we aren’t done getting indie goodies on our beloved handheld. Wolfstride, a new mecha RPG from developer OTA IMON Studio and publisher Raw Fury, releases today for the Nintendo Switch. The game features…

It’s easy to find charming, cute games featuring farming, befriending cute little creatures, and participating in dance battles? Ok, the last one is rather specific, but that mechanic belongs to Ooblets. Initially launched via…
Traffic. Easily one of the most reviled aspects of the human experience. Truly a collective and momentous waste of fuel and time; it serves for many as the harbinger of a day of full-time toil and an obstacle in the way of home. And yet, Dinosaur Polo Club over here…
One of the first games shown during today’s Indie World showcase was the puzzle-platformer ElecHead, which really impresses with its core concept and stylish look. Put together by a sole developer, ElecHead has you control a little robot whose head can provide power to nearby objects, which results in plenty…
A name can do a game wonders, often evoking some sort of feeling or expectation before you’ve begun to play. Today’s Indie World presentation had no shortage of excellent titles, but for my money there’s no better christening than that of Gunbrella. It tells you all you need to know…
What if Dark Souls… but crab? That’s the main promise of Another Crab’s Treasure from Aggro Crab games – what if you took the tight, difficult combat defined by FromSoftware and took it under the sea. As a hermit crab whose shell has been repossessed, you’ll explore a…
Today’s Indie World had a few oddities but few caught my eye quite like Wayward Strand and its alternate 1970’s Australian flying hospital. Yes, that’s really the setting. Taking to the skies is the young investigative journalist Casey who explores the hospital in real time. Depending on the playthrough, you’ll…
