While the company has made a name for itself remastering games from the sixth console generation and earlier, including…
I can’t believe we’re this eager to get Switch 2 news out, but Nintendo has shared a brief look at the Switch 2’s brand-new “C” button ahead of tomorrow’s Direct. On the Nintendo Today app, the latest hype video for the Switch 2 gave us a seven-second look at the…
In an astonishing turn of events, the ROM for BS F-Zero Grand Prix 2 Week 1 has finally been discovered and dumped for preservation. Over the weekend, LuigiBlood (famous for their preservation efforts and Nintendo Direct leaks) announced that they were finally able to secure a copy of the previously…
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…

The Switch-exclusive Sega Ages series is finally ramping back up, with the Master System’s Alex Kidd in Miracle World getting slated for release in Japan later this week, as reported by Gematsu. Originally released in Japan in 1986, and across the rest of the world in ’87, Alex Kidd in…
Game Informer senior editor Imran Khan has had a busy week in the Nintendo news cycle. Fresh off of crushing Mother fans’ hopes and dreams for the 132,463th time, Khan appeared on Kinda Funny Games on February 13th — the day of the Direct — where he dropped a hot…
Love ‘em or hate ‘em, Battle Royale games are all the rage these days. Typically reserved for first and third-person shooters, many were surprised to learn the beloved classic puzzle game Tetris would be entering the fold. I’ll admit I was the first to give it a passing eye-roll. Yet…
BlazBlue: Cross Tag Battle still stands as one of my favorite fighting games on Switch, what with its crossover nature and simplified, yet rewarding, gameplay. Things have been awfully quiet for it since the announcement at Evo 2018 that it would be receiving a fifth franchise, and the later reveal…
I’ve already called Wargroove one of the best Switch releases of the year so far, and as I’ve started to introduce the game to friends and read up on others’ takes, a few minor quibbles have come up here and there. Thankfully, Chucklefish has been listening and has recently detailed…
