Nintendo announced today that they will be having a 3DS focused Nintendo Direct on September 1st. Read on to find out what games I think they’ll show during the Direct.  Nintendo will be holding Nintendo Directs globally on Thursday, September 1st. The North American Direct will take place at 9am central time. The Direct will be focused exclusively on 3DS games. Nintendo has confirmed there will be no talk about the NX. I doubt there will be any mention of…

Everyone knows if you want to find a heart or rupee quick in a Zelda game, then you had better cut the grass and see what you can find. But what if there was an entire game about grass cutting with a sword? And you don't find hearts or rupees when cutting the grass, no sir, the grass cutting is the point of the game!

Select Gamestops will hold a demo event for Metroid Prime Federation Force and Dragon Quest 7 this weekend. Check out the list below to see if your Gamestop will hold the event! If you are lucky enough, you may find a Gamestop this weekend (8/27) holding a demo event for Metroid Prime Federation Force and Dragon Quest 7! Since there’s a Blastball demo on the eshop and the game is out, a demo event for Federation Force isn’t such a…

I’m not a Phoenix Wright fan. I’ve tried the demos before and I just didn’t think the games were that good. And yet, I keep downloading the demos. I’m not sure why. I suppose it has to do with my love of adventure/rpg/puzzle games. I keep hoping that I’ll love one of these Phoenix Wright 3DS games. So I downloaded the new Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice demo. What did I think of it? Did I like…

Although we can all see that Hitman and Deus Ex are two very different experiences, they both share a very common play mechanic – stealth. When playing through both titles in the past week – Deus Ex for review and the latest Hitman episode – I realized that although Deus Ex is packed full of things to do, I would rather play stealth in Hitman. The fundamental difference between environments in both titles is that Deus Ex is built for…

On Tuesday, I received a new 3DS review code for a game. The game is called The Legend of Kusakari and in it you…mow grass. Well, you mow the grass with a sword rather than a lawn mower, but still, the object of the game is to get rid of grass. Of course, it wouldn’t be a video game if there wasn’t some challenge! There are enemies to avoid as you cut the grass and you’re health will keep falling…

The Wii U has been home to many indie games since the system came out. The 3DS has also been home to some cool indies too. But Nindies, as Nintendo indies have been nicknamed, are only getting started this year! Nintendo released a press release and a trailer today showing off Nindies that are coming next month through December. Its a very impressive list! We have Nintendo’s press release, the trailer, and my thoughts on the Nindies below. We have…

Nothing on the PS4 has been as hyped as No Man's Sky; ok fine, a few things have been - Uncharted 4 anyone - but for the most part, No Man's Sky has been one of the most anticipated games of 2014...2015, and hell, even 2016. Had I quit playing after the first few hours I probably would have scored this a fairly strong 8, but after logging nearly 30 hours, I'm starting to realize I'm playing something that's more like a 6.

Developer Leuvsion announced on twitter today that their game Twisted Fusion (Wii U) will be coming out in October. I remember hearing about this game years ago but haven’t thought about it in awhile. The developer did bring a Twisted Fusion X Blok Drop U crossover game to the Wii U and it was pretty good. Soon we’ll get to see if Twisted Fusion itself will live up to all the time and work that the developer has put into…

When Little King Story launched back on the Wii a number of years ago, it was a game I was really looking forward too. It delivered for me for the most part, but there were a few nagging issues that really took away from the overall experience. That game on Wii came and went for me, and frankly, I haven’t thought of it much since. That was until recently, when the PR company for Xseed reached out and sent over…
