wouldn't say I'm a huge Xenoblade fan, but I was thrust into the franchise when the first title released on the Wii U when our office was sent a copy for review from Nintendo of Canada. This time around, copies of the game were limited - something we completely understand - so it is on us to purchase the game.

Read MoreXenoblade Chronicles 2 – Story Trailer
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 comes out this Friday! Are you excited for it? I know I am! Here is a new story trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles to-help?-you with the wait. The story trailer for Xenoblade Chronicles 2 doesn’t really give away much of the story. We just get glimpses at some very exciting and dramatic moments.

Read MoreStick It to the Man Review
Stick It to the Man is a really weird game. I first played this game on the Wii U and while I liked it alot, I also thought it was one of the strangest games I had ever played. Not everybody will like it. Stick It to the Man is for people who have an odd sense of humor and like stuff like Tim Burton movies and Bryan Fuller tv shows. And now Stick It to the Man is on the Nintendo Switch. Is the game as good on the Switch as it was on the Wii U? Let's find out!

Read MoreNintendo Continuing Great Year with Splatoon Update
Nintendo has a hit on their hands, and they know it. And no, I'm not talking about the Nintendo Switch, but rather, Splatoon 2, the sequel to the fast selling and much played Splatoon from the Wii U days. Nintendo has done a lot wrong over the past 5 years - fixed almost entirely by the Nintendo Switch - but one thing they've done right, which every one else has failed, is continuing to support their titles well after launch, with free content.
