A Nintendo Direct was rumoured for today but Nintendo never made an official announcement for it. I was starting to have my doubts that we’d see a Direct. As it happens, we did get a Nintendo Direct! You can check it out below along with my initial impressions of it. I’m not going to hide my opinion here: I was disappointed with this Nintendo Direct Mini.

Super Mario Odyssey was one of the BEST games of 2017, and received outstanding scores from almost every media outlet on the planet.

My bet is on an experience that mimics the turn based games we've come to enjoy on Nintendo's handheld system, and after much conversation with my good friend Paul Hunter - you can ...

I inherited a farm, started raising crops, got some animals, and now I’m married too. My life has totally changed. No wait. Thats not my real life, thats Stardew Valley for Nintendo Switch! What’s going on?! I can’t stop playing Stardew Valley. I have been playing and reviewing other games, but I keep wanting to go back to Stardew Valley in between.
