More Thoughts From Me #272: Crazy Nintendo E3 Predictions
We still have a few weeks to go but I figured, hey, why not start my crazy E3 predictions!? Today I’ll throw out some never-will-this-happen Nintendo E3 predictions, next week will be Sony, and right before E3 I’ll talk about Microsoft and third parties. Let’s a goooooo! Nintendo has not officially announced their E3 plans yet (unless they do and I have to rewrite this). So I am going to guess their plans… On the Thursday or Friday before E3…
Read MoreWonder Boy: Asha in Monster World

Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World is all these things. So is it any good? Should you check it out? Here is our review of Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World for the Nintendo Switch! Wonder Boy: Asha in Monster World is an action/adventure platformer. It stars a girl…

Read MoreMiitopia Review
Miitopia was, and technically still is, on the Nintendo 3DS. We reviewed it on that system, plus you can find review-in-progress articles here. But what do we think of the Switch version? Is it the game worth picking up again or for the first time on Switch? Here is our review of Miitopia on the Nintendo Switch!
Read MoreBiomutant Review
There are a dozen open-world RPGs every single year, and enough of them are post-apocalyptic that it’s almost impossible to have your game stand out unless you have a budget running hundreds of millions of dollars. The solution is perhaps obvious in hindsight. Why not let players create their own weird playable hamster thing? Well, Biomutant has that locked down. Yes, the world has fallen apart. Yes, the remains of ancient civilisations litter the landscape. It’s a rough life, filled…
Read MoreMiitopia Finds A New Home on The Switch
Miitopia started its life as a 3DS game. We reviewed that and liked it a lot. We also really enjoyed the Nintendo Switch demo! Now the full Miitopia game is out for the Switch and we have received a review copy of that version too. How is it so far? Is it really different from the 3DS one? For those who don’t know what Miitopia is, here is what I said in my review of the 3DS version: “An evil…

Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #271: Return of the Mii
Mii characters have been around since the Wii. Nintendo used them some of the 3DS, with Tomodachi Life and Miitopia specifically but they haven’t been used them a lot on the Switch…until now! Let’s talk about the return of the Mii. When Nintendo introduced the Mii on the Wii, well, it was neat concept. Creating your own avatar to use in games like Wii Sports was cool. And then on 3DS, we got games like Tomodachi Life and Miitopia which…
