A storm hits and your boat is destroyed. You wash up on a shore and finish yourself surrounded by animals. Welcome to Castaway Paradise for the Nintendo Switch! The game is out today. Here are my early impressions of it. Castaway Paradise takes place on an island full of animals. Sound familiar? It might but this game is only slightly like Animal Crossing. It actually shares more in common with Harvest Moon. Just like Harvest Moon: you grow crops, build…

Miitopia started life as a Mii-focused rpg on the 3DS. And now is coming to the Nintendo Switch! Today, Nintendo announced and released a demo for the Switch version. I have played the demo some and here are my first impressions of it. On the 3DS, I was a huge fan of Tomodachi Life. However, I just thought Miitopia was okay. I never really got into it a lot. So I admit when it was announced that the game was…

Nintendo of America has announced that there will be a brand new Indie World Showcase tomorrow! A brand new Indie World Showcase will be air tomorrow (4/14) at 11:ooam central. According to Nintendo of America, it will be “roughly 20 minutes focused on fresh and new indie games coming to #NintendoSwitch.” What could we see? Its anybody’s guess really. The Indie showcases usually show off several games. They are not as packed as Nintendo Directs but we should get at…

Pac-man 99 is available for Nintendo Switch Online owners and I’ve been a playing it a little. What do I think? Do you have 99 hours? Kidding! I do have some thoughts though. When Pac-man 99 was surprise announced…I was delighted. Seriously. C’mon. Its frelling Pac-man! And in a game where you are trying to survive as long as you can in a game of Pac-man against other players. Just a really cool idea. Pac-man 99 is another game that…

The Nintendo Switch Lite is about to get a brand new color soon: blue! The new version of the Lite will come out on May 21st, the same day as Miitopia for the Switch. I really like the look of this new color. Personally I think its the best color yet. It looks much better than the teal Switch Lite for sure. Maybe better than the yellow or red one too. At $199, the Switch Lite is a great option…

In the first part of our Review-in-progress, I talked about Cozy’s Grove’s graphics. And now its time to talk more the actual gameplay and where I’m currently at in the game. Cozy Grove isn’t just a simulation game. Its gameplay works on a real time clock, as mentioned before, but it has gameplay elements from two other genres: hidden object games and role playing games. Let’s look at that hidden object aspect. In Cozy Grove, you’ll be asked to find…

Mario is dead. Okay, not really but Mario 35 is gone. So what’s next for Nintendo Switch Online members? Well…how about Pac-man 99?! Pac-man 99 will be coming to the Nintendo Switch tomorrow at 6 PM PST according to Nintendo of America’s twitter. It will be a Nintendo Switch Online exclusive game like Mario 35 and Tetris 99. It will also have paid off-line DLC much like Tetris 99. The DLC will be available at launch. So what do I…

For a little more insight into what Cozy Grove is, check out my first impressions article from yesterday. Today I want to talk about Cozy Grove’s graphics! Cozy Grove is a cute, colorful cartoon-like game. If you’ve ever played Don’t Starve, the graphics are a bit like that game expect not as dark and stormy looking. Basically Cozy Grove lives up to its name: it is cozy. The graphics are like a warm blanket that gets even more comfortable when…

I play Animal Crossing New Horizons every day. I might not always play online with my friends, but I always at least check on my town to see whats new. And now I have another game that I want to play every day! Its called Cozy Grove. Let me tell you about it. Cozy Grove isn’t Animal Crossing New Horizons. Yes, there are some similarities, such as a real time clock and it also has fishing, digging, and takes place…

Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga was delayed before and…now its been delayed again. Check out the statement from TT Games below and then please join us for some thoughts on the announcement. It is disappointing that Lego Star Wars The Skywalker Saga has been delayed again. That said, the world is a very different place right now. Its amazing that more games haven’t been delayed, it has happened so much with movies and television. We don’t know for sure…
