And now we have it, thanks to the release of LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2 on the Xbox One, PS4, and Nintendo Switch. We took a peek at this title on Nintendo's hit platform, and thoroughly enjoyed our time with it.

More Thoughts From Me #96: Checking Out Some Playstation 4 Demos
Whenever I see a working demo unit for a Playstation 4, in Walmart or Gamestop, I have to check it out and see what the latest demos are.

Its not very often that they have that system working. Its the same with their Xbox…

Read MoreStick It to the Man Review
Stick It to the Man is a really weird game. I first played this game on the Wii U and while I liked it alot, I also thought it was one of the strangest games I had ever played. Not everybody will like it. Stick It to the Man is for people who have an odd sense of humor and like stuff like Tim Burton movies and Bryan Fuller tv shows. And now Stick It to the Man is on the Nintendo Switch. Is the game as good on the Switch as it was on the Wii U? Let's find out!

Read MorePortal Knights Coming to Nintendo Switch
I've never been a big fan of the Minecraft genre of games, mostly because of the graphical deficiencies, and because I feel I'm too dang old to start getting involved now. However, one game over the past year has really grabbed my attention, and I've spent hundreds of hours with friends and families building up little towns and villages complete with castles, homes, workshops, and more. I'm talking Portal Knights, one of the better sandbox titles to release this past year on console, and it is coming to Nintendo Switch.
Read MoreMario Party: The Top 100 Review
Mario Party titles have been on the downswing in recent years, with things beginning to fall off the rails around Mario Party 6 or 7. While the final three installments of the franchise have still been great fun - and we reviewed them all fairly well - there was still something missing that the previous titles all had.

When compared to any other home party title, Mario Party has some of the best - if not these best - mini games available, and to ...
Read MoreMorphite Review
Metroid Prime 4 is in development for the Nintendo Switch right now. It’ll probably be awhile before that game is out. Meanwhile, where should a gamer go to get some first person exploration fun? The solution to this question is Morphite for Nintendo Switch. The story in Morphite is really good. The main character is just trying to survive and get by and then she is roped into a quest to solve some mysteries of the universe. If I said…
