Let me start by saying, having the opportunity to experience the XBOX briefing was amazing. Not only did they announce the acquisition of five studios, they also showed 50 games, 15 of which were “console exclusive”. Of course, console exclusive doesn’t make a game belong to Xbox, some may be on PC as well (e.g. PUBG), others may only be exclusive to XBOX for a limited time.

The last few Mario Tennis titles have been a bit of a let down, but Mario Tennis Aces was looking to be the re-awakening of the franchise. For the last 4 or so days, we have been taking Mario Tennis Aces for a spin, and are enjoying it so far. While some aspects of the game may grow tiresome after we play it for weeks on end, after a few days, everything is still feeling fairly fresh. The biggest reason why we were excited about Mario Tennis Aces was the previously announced Adventure Mode. And we have some details for you!

When watching gameplay of Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido, I was having a very difficult time getting excited. I'm a big fan of puzzle games, but on my mobile phone instead of consoles. It was for this reason that I actually chose to skip out on the demo of Sushi Striker and focus on other games and articles that need to be written. When the opportunity came up to take the retail version for a spin, I decided to leave my preconceived notions at the door, and enter the experience with an open mind. I'm so glad I did, as Sushi Striker: The Way of Sushido is ...

Nintendo dropped another Mario Tennis Aces trailer ahead of the games launch later this month, and not only was it a good trailer, but it introduced a new gameplay mechanic as well. You can see the full trailer below, and past that, we touch on the new mechanic: Challenging the referee!

If you missed out on the live stream from last week, Gameloft and the developers behind Disney Magic Kingdoms unveiled and showed up Maleficent, and the evil she was getting up to in Disney Magic Kingdoms. This new event which launches right after the Bambi update - remember the Bambi content is not an event, but an extension of the story - so there is tons of new content to keep players busy! Ready to see how to tackle Maleficent? Let's dig deeper!

The patch notes for the Bambi update - live now - to Disney Magic Kingdoms is available via the Disney Magic Kingdoms Facebook page, and we are diving in to see what other improvements, if any, will be coming to the game over the next little while. Outside of Bambi and friends obviously being added to the kingdom, there are a few items we are hoping to see that would be brought over from other, successful 'city/town/park' buildings games: the ability to set all your characters to a task, at one time. Will we get it? Likely not, but that's OK, because the ...

It has been rumored for awhile that Lego was working on a new game focusing on the DC Super villains. Today that game was announced! We have the announcement trailer below plus my thoughts on Lego DC Super-Villains. Lego DC Super-Villains has been announced for the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC. The game is coming out on October 16, 2016. While the above trailer doesn’t reveal any gameplay footage for Lego’s newest game, I’m still pretty excited…

When watching the trailer for Pokémon Let's Go Pikachu and Pokémon Let's Go Eevee, I began to wonder about the decision to focus on Generation 1 Pokémon. Personally, I really like the idea of doing this, and cannot wait to relive Pokémon Yellow as I play this game with my eight year old kid, who's never experienced Generation 1! But what about subsequent generations? What about the people show grew up with Pokémon Silver and Pokémon Gold? I've had a crazy thought, and...it is crazy.

The Pokémon Company, in partnership with Nintendo, Game Freak, and Niantic, held a Pokémon conference in Japan this evening (NA time) detailing the numerous games and accessories coming to the Nintendo Switch and mobile in 2018 and 2019. With lots to unpack, lets hop in and check out Pokemon Quest!

The Nintendo Switch is one of the most popular systems right now. And Nintendo is bringing Smash Bros Switch to E3 this year and releasing the game this year too. So what else do you need? Does Nintendo actually need anything else? I think a lot of people would just be happy if they showed a lot of Smash Bros and nothing else. But…Nintendo won’t be happy with just Smash Bros this E3. Oh no. And while Smash will get…
