There aren't a lot of games available right now on the Nintendo Switch, and even less selection when you begin breaking down the categories by genre. It seems that New Frontier Days might be the first city simulation game to market, and that could bode well for the company when it comes to sales.

Lego City Undercover was such a great game on the Wii U. There was so much you could do in the game, like drive all manner of vehicles! The newest trailer for Lego City Undercover, which is coming to multiple systems on April 4th, focuses on vehicles. Lego City Undercover is coming to the Nintendo Switch, Playstation 4, Xbox One, and PC on April 4th. If you didn’t get a chance to play the game on Wii U, then you…

Steamworld Dig 2 will be heading to the Nintendo Switch this summer. We’ll be hearing a lot about the game via the wonderful folks at Image & Form. For instance, today they released a new video answering some questions about Dig 2. You can check that video out below. Steamworld Dig 2 looks fantastic. I don’t have a Switch yet but when I do get one, I will likely grab the game for that (or pick it up on 3DS…

Recently, I heard that Sony would be discontinuing the Playstation 3 in Japan. Its amazing that it took them this long, what with the Playstation 4 doing so well. I use to own the system, but traded mine in awhile back. I still miss the Playstation 3 to this day. There were a lot of wonderful games on the system. I thought that now would be a great time to look back at my Playstation 3 memories and the games…

I beat the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild recently, but I still find myself playing the game to see what else I can find. Breath of the Wild is a really vast and amazing world. What do the developers of the game think of this world they created? Nintendo released a new video today “The Making of Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild -Bonus Session” where the creators go into detail about their favorite characters, shrines, and…

Bye-Bye Boxboy came out in Europe yesterday. Nintendo of America announced via twitter this month that the title would come out on March 23rd too. They quickly deleted that tweet and the title did not come out in North America yesterday! What happened? Nintendo of America isn’t ready to say Bye-Bye to Boxboy yet. In a statement to Polygon they said that “incorrect information about an upcoming game for Nintendo 3DS was posted on Nintendo of America’s social media channels”…

When Nintendo launched the Mario Sports Remix on the Wii a number of years ago, I was super skeptical and assumed a mash-up of sports in a single game - ala the Winter and Sumer Olympic Game titles - would be a fairly short experience, with little replayability outside of parties with friends and family.
