After years of speculation and anticipation, publisher Forever Entertainment has finally announced that its House of the Dead 2 remake will finally be seeing the light of day this year. Revealed alongside a new trailer, the aptly titled “The House of the Dead 2: Remake” will be hitting Switch and…
The Switch 2 has had a heck of a media week, especially in Las Vegas. The Consumer Electronics Showcase (Abbreviated as CES) played host to a number of tech giants, including accessory developer Genki who brought mockups of the yet-to-be-revealed Nintendo Switch followup console. Genki in specific claimed this was…
The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of leaks and speculation, with alleged images, specs, and rumors about the Nintendo Switch 2 dominating the gaming news cycle. Until Nintendo officially announces something about the much-anticipated console, this flurry of speculation is likely to continue. With that said, let’s continue…
According to Twitter user Dr. HyperCake, Joker from Persona 5, Super Smash Bros. Ultimate’s first paid DLC character, has had his stage revealed via datamining. Now, this one is tagged with both rumor and a spoiler tag in case it turns out to be true, but it really isn’t much…
Were I not waist deep in the throes of my own backlog, there’s no doubt that I’d still be trawling through game after game of Civilization VI on Switch. But there may be even more incentive to go back and stand the test of time, as Aspyr — the company…
Sometimes a game just clicks with you, and for me that was exactly what Skullgirls did. Originally released back in 2012, it went on to grow and grow thanks to fan support and one extra dedicated team. A few platforms later and it’s just about time for it to take…
Even though there was no Direct last month or even a big landmark release, the Switch continued its dazzling sales performance, marking the best January performance of any console this generation. In addition, sales are up year over year despite the fact that there was one less week of tracking…
It is the stuff of video game legend — a tale imbued, however dramatically, with a Shakespearean quality of hubris and irony. In the late ’80s and early ’90s, our three actors — the once and future king Nintendo, fair and beautiful SquareSoft, and mighty and brave Sony — put…
Heyyo, look out down below! It looks like more than just our banana slamma’ is about to get a little attention in the next Spirit Board event. The entire DK Crew and then some are barreling in, giving you a chance to fill out your collection. A totally a-peeling chance…
Puzzles are hot right now thanks to Tetris 99, but I’ve got my sights set on something that takes blocky in a different direction. When I first saw Treasure Stack during last year’s Nindie Summer Showcase I knew I had to try it, and it looks like it won’t be…
While usually making content for weekly Famitsu, there’s no monopoly on the words, thoughts, and overall remarks of Masahiro Sakurai, resident Smash auteur. Nintendo Dream conducted a dream with Sakurai last month, which they’ve only recently posted online. @PushDustIn of Source Gaming has provided a valuable translation as always —…
These days, I very rarely play games in handheld mode. I hold nothing against the idea of it, but if I can play a game on the big screen, I will, and the Nintendo Switch is brilliant for allowing the option with practically every game on the platform. There’s one…
Blade Strangers is one of the oddest fighting games on Switch, being a cross-over brawler with an eclectic selection of franchises, where Curly from Cave Story can fight Shovel Knight. Now another indie character is seemingly set to join the fray, at least going by a mysterious screenshot tweeted out…
Say it ain’t so! Sorry, Shovel Knight fans, you’ll have to wait a tad longer before the Shovel Knight: Treasure Trove, Shovel Knight: King of Cards, Shovel Knight Showdown, and/or the Treasure Trove amiibo 3-pack can be added to your gaming collection. Shared in a blog post over the…
Daemon X Machina didn’t exactly leave a lasting impression on me when it was first announced at E3 last year. The combat involving mechas (called Arsenals) and other giant machines definitely piqued my interest for a short time, the music was right up my alley, and the gameplay looked exciting…
