Miitopia came out on Friday last week. I bought the game on Friday and have played it a lot since then. Today, I want to provide you with some impressions of Miitopia. What do I think of the game so far? A villian is going around stealing faces from Miis and its your job to get those faces back. Thats the basic plotline of Miitopia. There is a little bit more to it, all the time, but I don’t want…

The 3DS family has had a great summer with big releases: Ever Oasis, Hey! Pikmin, Miitopia, and the New 2DS XL. But the summer fun doesn’t stop there! Today, Nintendo announced their releases for August and September. Let’s see what they’ll release! The New 2DS XL is a cool looking system, but not everyone has enough money to get one. Perhaps, a regular 2DS is your speed? If so, you may want to hold off buying one right now. Why?…

No matter which ship I end up on - and so far that would include the Disney Wonder, the Disney Magic, and the Disney Dream - the iPad sections of the Oceaneers Club and Oceaneers Lab is always full of kids trying to play the latest Disney and Marvel games available. With a large variety of games to play - including your Disney favorites like Where's My Water, Crossy Roads, and more - Disney Cruise Line knows how to keep your kids entertained while you enjoy some of the more adult pleasures on board.

Overcooked has been available before, but players were tied to their consoles if they wanted to play. With the Special Edition launch on the Nintendo Switch, Overcooked is now available on the go, and it is one of the best, handheld/tabletop Nintendo Switch experiences to date. While the game will pose strong challenges to those playing by themselves, it's still incredibly rewarding to complete each level, and even more rewarding when getting the full three stars! Multiplayer, however, is definitely where this game shines.

Lego Worlds, the Minecraft inspired Lego game, will be coming to the Nintendo Switch! We have the release date and my thoughts on the game. Lego Worlds will come to the Nintendo Switch on September 5, 2017. This new Lego game is a lot like Minecraft. You will be able to build 3D worlds in a sandbox environment. Lego Worlds features the same unique graphics and humor of other Lego games. It is currently available on other video games systems.…

The Pikmin franchise has been one of Nintendo's best since the original title released many years ago on the Nintendo Gamecube. Since then, Nintendo has been careful to not over extend the franchise, but only releasing new titles every few years. Until 2017, Pikmin has lived and died on the home entertainment console, never finding its way to the Nintendo 3DS family of system. With the release of Hey! Pikmin, that all changes, as does the game's formula, to make it more appropriate for the handheld device.

Apparently the Onion Kingdom is in danger and we are the only ones who can save it. Thanks to Team 17, we will be able to do that when we review Overcooked: Special Edition on Nintendo Switch this weekend! For more details on the game, including the launch price in the US and Canada, check out the information supplied by the developers below! Let's get cooking!

The LEGO Ninjago Movie Video Game comes out in September. Here is a new trailer showing off the epic fighting moves, weapons, and humor of the game! The LEGO Ninjago Movie Video Game comes out on September 22, 2017 for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PC. I thought today’s trailer was pretty cool. I’m not that familiar with the LEGO Ninjago franchise, but I liked what I saw in the trailer. There are some neat fighting moves and…

Our overall review of Splatoon 2 is up on the site and readable here, but we thought we would do some extended, more in depth looks at some of the specific modes in the game. First up is Salmon Run, the one mode I was most critical of in my review. Frankly, the content of Salmon Run was not what was disappointing, but rather, the limited playability of the mode itself. However, after seeing what plans Nintendo has for this mode, and how often it will be available, I am willing to rescind some of that criticism.

The New Nintendo 2DS XL is coming out next week. Check out this new launch trailer for the system! The New Nintendo 2DS XL will be out on July 28th. In my opinion, this system looks like the best version of the 3DS yet. The system is very sleek and slim. The screens are huge and the system’s colors, blue & black, look great. If you don’t care about 3D, then then the New 2DS XL looks like the best…
