Simulation

Do you ever feel like going on an adventure? You know, just pack your bags and go somewhere without a desination. Of course, in real life, taking an adventure requires time and money. Thats why if you can't go on a real adventure, then you can always find one in a video game. It may not feel as real, but sometimes a video game comes along thats all about the adventure-surviving, finding stuff, and not dying of course. The Flame in the Flood for Nintendo Switch is all about how long you can make it.

Animal Crossing New Leaf has been out for the 3DS for awhile now. I want to say six years, but I could be wrong. Its been awhile anyway. And I keep playing New Leaf every day because I love the Animal Crossing franchise. I absolutely loved the update that we got for it last year too. That said, I’m totally ready for a new Animal Crossing. Its been WAY too long. The update and the spinoffs were cool, but shouldn’t…

Grab your walking stick, your best dog, and your raft because we are going on an adventure. You’ll have to keep your wits about you and pick up as much supplies  as you can on the way. Don’t forget to eat, drink water, and sleep. This is going to be a big adventure. Welcome to The Flame In the Flood for Nintendo Switch. I hope you don’t starve to death or drown or get gored by some wild creature… The…

I'm not a fan of Anime. I've spoken about my dislike of Pokemon before but generally, I'm not a big fan of the manga/anime genre overall. And yet, I decided I wanted to review One Piece: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition because I thought the gameplay looked interesting.

Last week, I was going to write about third party games. Instead, I wrote about the Adventure games coming to the Switch. This week…well, I have to admit I’m starting to wonder if the Switch even needs third party games! Don’t get wrong: it would be very nice to see more third party games come to the Switch, however, have you seen how many games came out for the system last week? And this week? Plus we have Super Mario…

The Nintendo Switch has a lot of different types of games already, but one of the biggest genres that hasn’t appeared on the system yet is the life simulation genre. There are no Animal Crossings or Harvest Moons on the system (yet). However, this Thursday, Stardew Valley will appear on the Switch’s eshop to fill the farming life simulation void in your Switch sized heart. Check out the details below. Stardew Valley will release for the Nintendo Switch this Thursday,…

They say you shouldn’t look a gift horse in the mouth, but I can’t help asking the following question. I keep seeing third party games being announced for the Nintendo Switch. I think its a great thing. I love that third party games are coming to the system. I hope we see more. That said, will the third party developers stick with the system? Will they bring more games? Nintendo fans have been down this road before. We have been…

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…
