Not revealed in today’s Direct, Nintendo has a new wrinkle in store for publishers that opt to sell physical games without the physical component. For anyone looking to sell a “key-in-a-box,” Nintendo has a brand-new option: the Switch 2 Game-Key card. As the name suggests, this will be a Switch…
Mario Kart World, the newest entry in the Mario Kart franchise and the first new console game in over a decade, races on to Switch 2 in just two months! First teased back in January for the Switch 2 reveal, Mario Kart World was the first trailer shown off in…
BoxBoy! secured My Nintendo Rewards’ May calendar, and now there are a few other goodies added to the site as well. Discounts, 3DS themes, and a Splatoon 2 character chart download have joined the lineup! With more tentacles than an Inkopolis soap opera (ink opera?), the Squid Research Lab did…
May! May is the fifth page on the calendar, and it’s my second favorite month of the year. (March is first, if you were wondering.) There’s no major first party title coming from Nintendo in May, so the indies and third parties are really carrying the load for these…
As of May 1st, 2019, upon the ascension of Emperor Naruhito to the throne, Japan has entered the Reiwa era. To mark the occasion, and get in some sneaky new advertising, Nintendo uploaded a video highlighting Super Mario Maker 2’s creation capabilities. View this post on Instagram A post…

Labo VR has only been out for a few short weeks, but we’ve already seen some incredible games made with its creative mode. Case in point — this recreation of Rhythm Heaven’s iconic Karate Joe minigame, which features a minute of beat-pumping and object-punching action. Hopefully Nintendo adds a way…
Since its initial reveal in a Direct, we haven’t gotten a ton of details on Oninaki, the next game due out from Tokyo RPG Factory. Earlier last week, however, Square Enix posted a new trailer that showcases the core cast members of the upcoming Action RPG, along with some out…

Final Fantasy VI turned 25 this month, and is still considered a real gem for the ages — a quarter of a century later and highly regarded as one of the finest JRPGs to ever exist. In celebration of the milestone achievement for the beloved classic, many members of the…
Mortal Kombat 11 is like a perfect distillation of the modern AAA game industry. It’s a tug of war between game designers, artists, producers, and distributors. While the gameplay is the best it’s ever been, almost everything that happens when there isn’t a health bar on screen feels like it…
There’s been a bit of concern and consternation over some of Splatoon 2’s latest gear. While the game has drowned fans in free updates and equipment in the past, this latest batch (born via a fan contest with Japanese magazine and Pokémon infomine CoroCoro) has some squid kids in a…
