When Nintendo announced that there would be a Direct this week for Fire Emblem, I tried not to set my hopes too high. It was very likely that only Fire Emblem Warriors and maybe that Fire Emblem mobile game would be shown. This week, we found out the mobile title would indeed be shown. I was still trying my hardest not to get excited about today’s direct, however I was secretly hoping that we’d get a new 3DS game. As…

More Thoughts From Me Fire Emblem Edition: Echoes of the Past and Future
More Thoughts From Me #52: Play & Learn
This More Thoughts From Me is about Edutainment games. You can and should learn from video games. Its great to have a fun game that has an entertaining story. We all want that escape from reality. Fun is important. But why can’t you, sometimes at least, have fun and learn something too? Most people seem to think of Edutainment as a genre for kids. Many of these games are, in fact, designed for little kids. Some, such as Brain Age,…
Read More#SwitchAnticipatedTitles: Project Octopath Traveler
Square Enix does a lot of rpgs for the 3DS, but its not often that we see them do rpgs for a Nintendo home console. Last night, it was announced that Dragon Quest 10 and 11 will hit the Switch in Japan. Also Dragon Quest Heroes 1 + 2 was announced for the Switch. And finally, Square showed off a brand new rpg.

Read More#SwitchAnticipatedTitles: Xenoblade 2
I had heard a rumor that Monolith Soft was working on a game for Nintendo Switch, but I was still not prepared for Xenoblade 2’s reveal. I enjoyed the previous Xenoblade games on Wii and Wii U, so it was a happy surprise. Xenoblade 2 is definitely one of my Anticipated titles for Nintendo Switch. When I saw the Monolith Soft logo at the beginning of a trailer last night, I thought I knew what we’d see, but I wasn’t…

Read MoreRime Developer Shares Gameplay Secrets (Video)
Recently, we found out that Rime would be coming to the Nintendo Switch (and other systems). Since then, the developer has been sharing more footage of the game on IGN. We have the latest video about the game below. Wow! Rime really does look amazing. It is reminding me of Ico more and more. I wasn’t a huge fan of Ico, but I did like the graphics. Though, Rime may look even better than Ico. I’m definitely more interested…
Read MoreLego City Undercover Trailer (For PS4, Xbox One, Switch and PC)
Lego City Undercover is one of my favorite Wii U games. I am still surprised that the game remained a Wii U exclusive for so long. Of course, all good things come to an end (especially when dealing with third party developers) and Lego City Undercover will be going to the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC this Spring. Check out the first trailer for the game below. Lego City Undercover is a very good game. I enjoyed…
