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.

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…

Harvest Moon type games have an instant attraction to so many gamers because of the laid back nature of their game play mechanics. Generally, games like Harvest Moon are relaxing titles, a great way to rid yourself of stress at the end of a long day. Generally, these games rarely ever have an adventure or story component too them, which makes them fairly one-dimensional. Enter Yonder: The Cloud Catcher Chronicles. Part exploration, part adventure, part crafting, and part farming, this title takes the best components of numerous genres and creates a relaxing, ...

Spider-man Homecoming was an awesome movie. I won’t even pretend to be unbiased about that movie. But one of the things that I didn’t really care for in the movie was his “original” costume. I guess it was more realistic for a first costume, but still. Why am I talking about this? I’m talking about it because today it was announced that first costume of Peter’s is coming to Lego Marvel 2! Like I said, I’m not a fan of…

Nintendo generally always has a good pulse on what the audience thinks about their products, and often will adjust course to meet those high expectations. I strongly feel like that is why we got the Nintendo Switch when we did, and also the reason why Nintendo continues to support the 2DS and 3DS despite the Switch beginning to encroach on that on-the-go Nintendo territory. We know all about the Switch and what support it has, but what about the 3DS. Well, for those fans, things are looking incredibly bright.
