Mission Log. 8/31/2017. The League of Evil have sent their scientists out to cause trouble. I have been dispatched to elimiate them by any means neccessary. I prefer my fists. The League of Evil will not win. With my Nintendo Switch in hand, I’ll take them down and then go out for a beer. League of Evil’s story is pretty simple, but the addition of humor helps it a bit. Its a very dry humor, so its possible that some…

Nintendo of America did a Nindies Summer Showcase video presentation today. A lot of games were shown off. Check out the video below and please come back for my opinion of the showcase and the games shown. The Nindies Summer Showcase today was really good. I wasn’t sure it would be at first because I didn’t find the initial games that impressive (Super Meat Boy Forever looked ok, but not my sort of game). But then we got big news…

Nintendo of America loves their Nintendo Directs and video presentations (so do I!). And so it should come as no surprise that another video presentation is coming up soon. This time, Nintendo will highlight Indie games coming to the Nintendo Switch! Nintendo of America’s Nindie Showcase video presentation, according to their twitter account, will highlight “multiple indie games coming to Nintendo Switch.” The presentation will be up at 10am PT on Wednesday, August 30. There is no word on what…

If you are hoping to be completely surprised by Mario+Rabbids you might want to be careful where you click this weekend on YouTube. Nintendo YouTubers around North America and Europe have begun uploading hours of content as the video embargo lifted today, something that many developers and publishers rarely let media do. As I've dealt with numerous Nintendo embargoes in the last 3 years, there is often a 30-60 min cap on captured footage. Ubisoft, however, is being a bit more lenient, and that's ok with me!

When I played Stick It to the Man on Wii U, I became a Zoink! fan. The developer has such an odd and wonderful sense of humor in their games. I never did get to play Zombie Vikings since it wasn’t on a Nintendo platform but it looked great too! And now, I’m happy to report that one of Zoink’s upcoming games, FE, has been announced for the Nintendo Switch. FE, an upcoming game from Zoink!, has been announced for…

When I heard another Sonic game was going to be release, I - along with almost everyone else - was pretty skeptical as things have not been great as of late for the blue blur. That being said, I've looked forward to every Sonic release since first playing the games back on the SEGA Genesis, so despite having some reservation about how this title would perform, I had some nostalgic excitement none-the-less. After going through most of the game, enjoying numerous bosses and bonus stages, I can say this is the happiest I've been playing a Sonic game in a long ...

You may say to yourself: do I need a game called Chicken Wiggle in my life? And you may say to yourself: self, what is a Chicken Wiggle? I will attempt to answer both those questions in my review of Chicken Wiggle for the 3DS eshop.

Might solve a mystery or rewrite history…Ducktales! Woo–oo. (stops singing). Yes, today I’m going to talk about Ducktales. Specifically Ducktales Remastered, a video game that came out on the Wii U awhile back. I’m sure it came out other places too but I played it on the Wii U. And now seems like a great time to talk about this game again with the new cartoon having just premiered last week! Was I supposed to talk about something else today?…
