Mario Kart 8 Deluxe launches next week, and multiple websites are pushing out their various previews and reviews. While we do get the opportunity to review most of Nintendo’s products – they did send us a Switch after all! – there are the odd moments where demands far exceeds supply. As a rerelease on a new platform, this appeared to be one of those situations. Don’t worry though, as we will be picking up our own copy next week, and…

Lately, I've wanted to spend my hard earned dollars on indie games as opposed to AAA releases. I feel like more heart and soul goes into an indie release, and when they are really good, I want to tell everyone. Shiness: The Lightning Kingdom is one such game, and outside of it not being available on Nintendo Switch, I think it is a fantastic experience.

After all these years, people are still wondering if Gordon Freemen will ever return. First introduced in Half-Life, Gordon was sent into an underground complex with nothing but a crowbar and his wits. Then came Half-Life 2, where Gordon had to survive City 17 with a crowbar and his wits. Oh sure you could get other weapons in both games, but come on, the crowbar was your most important tool. Short episodes, 1 and 2, were released to expand on…

Wonder Boy: The Dragon’s Trap is coming to the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch this week. Please take a look at the launch trailer for the game! Wonder Boy: the Dragon’s Trap is a platformer with a really charming cartoon look to it. I think the graphics look amazing. A game like this is definitely perfect for the Nintendo Switch where you can play on the big screen in HD or play it on the go. Its also…

Yesterday, there was a Nintendo Direct. The Direct covered both 3DS and Nintendo Switch titles. What did I think of the titles shown? Let’s find out! Nintendo Direct had a new format yesterday. We should talk about that first. The new list style format for Nintendo Direct worked well and had things going at a fast pace. It wasn’t too fast though. This format was definitely interesting. That said, I hope Nintendo doesn’t do this all the time. I can…

I have mixed feelings about free-to-play (or free-to-start) games. On the surface, the idea is interesting: free to download games that you can play and if you like, you can buy more levels or items for the games. But the main problem with free-to-start games is that usually the games are too simple and/or just not that fun. I’m including Nintendo in this because I didn’t think the free-to-start Pokémon games nor Steel Diver were that good. However, if anyone…

A new Nintendo Direct aired tonight. Check out the video below and stay tuned for more coverage of this Direct tomorrow. Nintendo announced a lot of dates and seasons for games coming this year for 3DS and Nintendo Switch. I will have a special More Thoughts From Me tomorrow covering this Nintendo Direct. I’ll let you know which games I like and must have! Also, please stay tuned tomorrow for my first impressions of the new free-to-start Kirby game, Team…

Wii U indie games are starting to become a rare thing. Whenever a new Wii U game comes out, I find myself smiling and hoping that its a good game. Anmal Gods for Wii U came out last week. I have been playing it for review and I'm finally ready to share with what I thought of the game.
