It would be really nice to play some old Nintendo games on the system. Square Enix isn’t waiting on Nintendo though. Last week, the developer/publisher brought a remaster of an old game to the Switch. This game, however, was never released in the United States before. The game in question is Romancing Saga 2!

Read MoreXbox One X Coverage: ARK: Survival Evolved Looks Fantastic
I've been a long-time fan of ARK: Survival Evolved, and when Xbox released users statistics for 2017, it was no surprise to me that ARK was my most played game this year.

For the longest time - especially when the game was still in early access - it didn't look great, and at times, it handled even worse. Over this weekend I loaded up ...

Read MoreFirst Impressions – BlackBerry Motion Smart Phone
A box arrived from BlackBerry Canada yesterday, and I wasn't entirely sure what to expect of the contents. I knew the BlackBerry Motion and the BlackBerry KEYone were launched in 2017, and that BlackBerry was planning on sending me one for review. Outside of that, however, I didn't know what to expect. My last foray into the BlackBerry world was with the BlackBerry Classic, which I used almost exclusively for business purposes. At that time, I was rocking two cellphones: one for work, one for my personal use. The system worked, but handling two phones at once ...
