With the Nintendo Switch 2 only being two months old at this point, it makes sense that there aren’t any color options available quite yet. Past Nintendo handhelds have had a myriad of special editions and colors to choose from, and while the Switch 2 will likely get some in…
Visitors to Japan this month will want to make a stop by McDonald’s if they’re big into Pokémon. As part of a special promotion starting on August 8th, 2025, McDonald’s Japan will be carrying a handful of new, exclusive Pokémon toys in Happy meals as well as the previously reported…
In a bit of surprising news today, RedOctane Games has announced its establishment as a new studio within Embracer Freemode. Those familiar with the Guitar Hero franchise will be keenly familiar with the name as Red Octane was the manufacturer of the famous guitar controllers for its namesake franchise. This…
Masocore games and I have gotten quite chummy over the past few years, from humble beginnings beefing up with Meat Boy to cathartic climbs up Mount Celeste. Dipped in the spicy sauce of nostalgia, it’s a genre rarely made for the faint of heart, rewarding only those with the perseverance…
YouTuber DanTDM got the chance to go hands-on with Team Sonic Racing. In a recent video, he detailed his experience playing Sega’s upcoming kart racer. We already knew most of the information given in the video, but it was nice to get a refresher on what we can…
Nintendo may be opening a door long shut for the video game manufacturer’s home consoles — partnering with Chinese multimedia conglomerate Tencent (the folks who own, among other things, Riot Games and part of Epic Games) to try and get the Switch sold in China. The sale of New Super…
No doubt thanks to the presence of Simon and Richter Belmont (and much more) in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, I’ve had an itch to dive back into the dark and haunted halls of Castlevania now more than ever. Thankfully, the upcoming Castlevania Anniversary Collection has just shared its full library…
As part of the recently retired Reggie Fils-Aimé’s turn to Twitter, the former president of NOA posted some final farewell gifts from Nintendo employees. And in addition to a working Virtual Boy and a plastic replica of an ass “to kick” (please never change, Reggie), he received a very nice…
Joker has arrived! We take the latest Smash Bros. fighter on a ride through Classic Mode.
Some players using the newly-released DLC character Joker in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s Classic Mode are experiencing a glitch that softlocks the game — causing it to only work again once the software is restarted.

Even though it comes out next week, we have only just gotten our first public look at Mortal Kombat 11 running on the Nintendo Switch.

When it comes to Nindies, I can think of no finer how-do-you-do than Cuphead’s overdue debut last month. Rumored and requested plenty, it took the combined effort of Nintendo, Microsoft, and Studio MDHR to pour this one out and meet the frothing demand of run ‘n gunners and animation fans…
Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Version 3.0 has officially dropped (if Nintendo can keep their servers online that is), and with it comes a huge assortment of changes and fighter adjustments.

Taking to Twitter, Masahiro Sakurai decided to share some further information on Joker and some of the other Persona content, which has now been translated into English…
I’ve been on a big Splatoon kick lately, rising back up the ranks and splatting Salmonids after a months-long break that just happened to coincide with Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s launch. Go figure. The real test is about to start though, as this weekend’s bringing on a new, extra special…
