As any die-hard Zelda fan will know, The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time originally started development as a very different game. We’ve heard rumors of it being envisioned as a remake of Zelda 2: The Adventure of Link, but we’ve seen footage from the 1996 Spaceworld showcase that was…
Kirby Fighters 2 has been an enjoyable slice of Dream Land, especially for fans of Kirby’s copy abilities. A new video has arrived to showcase a few of these (and one longtime friend), following up on a previous video that introduced Wrestler Kirby. This time around though the abilities are…
Way back in 2012, the fighting game Phantom Breaker was scheduled to launch in North America for the Xbox 360, but it was cancelled.

When Trials of Mana arrived it not only remade the game from the ground up, it also captured the spirit of the genre by way of nostalgia. Now a new update has arrived to bring back another retro element – difficulty. Anyone looking for an excuse to get back into…
The main attraction may be the game’s demo releasing today (at least in Japan), but Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory had a little bit more to share. New screenshots have been shared showing returning Disney worlds and party members along with other features and menus. Neverland, the Pride Lands, and…
Monster Hunter Rise is keeping the dream alive for third party amiibo, offering up a trio of figures when the game releases next March. While we already saw concept art of flagship monster and Monster Hunter Rise Collector’s Edition star Magnamalo, we now have a look at both the Palico…
Natsume has announced another new character for Harvest Moon: One World. This time we’re evening out the bachelorette count compared to the bachelors. Here’s Gabrielle!

With the end nearly in sight, I’m sad to say that time-bending RPG Cris Tales has been officially delayed into 2021. While release date shifts have been fairly common throughout 2020 this has been one to keep an eye on, and will (perhaps fittingly) require a little more time to…
