I’m not a Monster Hunter fan. I’ve have tried demos of the other games and didn’t care for them much. But Monster Hunter Stories looked different. The game has cel-shaded graphics and a turn-based rpg battle system. I like both. Would I like Monster Hunter Stories better than the games it was related to? I got a chance to find out with the recently released 3DS eshop demo. Here are my impressions of it. I wasn’t sure what to expect…

Monster Hunter Stories will be coming out next month! But if you want to get a glimpse of it before then, you should check out the trailer below and download the free demo on the 3DS eshop.

In part 1 of our Review-in-progress, we looked at the crazy rpg battles of Miitopia, in part 2 we visited some Inns, and in part 3 we took a trip with some Miis. Welcome to part 4, the final part (dun, dun, DUH). This time we'll check out the goofy sights and wonderful sounds of Miitopia. Will you want to plug your eyeballs into this weird game? Will the wonderful sounds charm you? Here we gooooo....

Once upon a time, there was a game called Miitopia. In this game, there were turn-based rpg battles and strange trips to Inns. But how do you get from point A (battles) to point B (inns)? How do you move around in Miitopia? And is it interesting? Let’s find out the answers to these questions! There is no open world in Miitopia. Instead, the map in this game is kind of like the one you find in modern Fire Emblem…

Yesterday, we took at look at the rpg gameplay of Miitopia. And now today, in part 2 of our review-in-progress, we’ll take a look at one of the things that makes Miitopia a sim. Here’s where things feel a little bit similar to Tomodachi Life and a little bit different too. Let’s visit the Inn! Don’t worry too much if you start running low on health in the dungeons and levels of Miitopia. At the end of every level there…

Here is it folks! The beginning of the end…I mean…the beginning of our Miitopia (3DS)Review-in-progress! Today we will take a look at Miitopia’s battle system. It’s definitely “unique”. Spoiler Warning in case you don’t want to know anything about the battle system or the interconnected job system. Miitopia has a turn based battle system. On the surface it seems a lot like what you’d find in other jrpgs on the 3DS. The top screen in where the action takes place…

Miitopia came out on Friday last week. I bought the game on Friday and have played it a lot since then. Today, I want to provide you with some impressions of Miitopia. What do I think of the game so far? A villian is going around stealing faces from Miis and its your job to get those faces back. Thats the basic plotline of Miitopia. There is a little bit more to it, all the time, but I don’t want…

The 3DS family has had a great summer with big releases: Ever Oasis, Hey! Pikmin, Miitopia, and the New 2DS XL. But the summer fun doesn’t stop there! Today, Nintendo announced their releases for August and September. Let’s see what they’ll release! The New 2DS XL is a cool looking system, but not everyone has enough money to get one. Perhaps, a regular 2DS is your speed? If so, you may want to hold off buying one right now. Why?…

YO-KAI WATCH fans must be jubilant today with the release of more information today regarding the launch of YO-KAI WATCH 2: Psychic Specters. YO-KAI WATCH has steadily obtained a really strong following in Europe and North America, which has culminated in toys from Hasbro, Games from LEVEL-5, and even movies and TV shows in full English. The love for this franchise shouldn't be surprising, however, because all of these mediums are high quality, top of the line experiences. A new YO-KAI WATCH 2 game doesn't just mean fun for 3DS owners, but for the fans of the ...

Miitopia is out today for the 3DS family of systems. We will have a preview of the game on Monday. For now, please check out the launch trailer and then my thoughts on Miitopia. I love Tomodachi Life for the 3DS. It is such wacky and strange game. Also, it is an excellent use of Miis. And now Nintendo is releasing another game focused around Miis: Miitopia! Tomodachi Life was a sim through and through. Miitopia has sim elements, but…
