Sport

I'm not a huge baseball fan to be sure, but ever since my local Toronto Blue Jays have decided to be good, I've paid more attention to them, and the sport, than ever before. With a slight appreciation for baseball - the lesser of the main sports in my opinion - I knew the next step was giving the ultimate baseball video game a go. With that, I jumped into MLB The Show 17 fully expecting to be in way over my head. Fortunately, I was pleasantly surprised.

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.

The 3DS is one of my all-time favorite systems. I play it every single day. I’m happy that Nintendo is continuing to put out new games for it. In fact, Mario Sports Superstars is coming out next week! Nintendo released a new trailer for it today. Mario Sports Superstars is coming to the Nintendo 3DS on March 24th! I am really excited for this game. Why am I so excited for a Mario Sports game? I’m not even a sports…

It's been well over a week since we launched and played 1-2 Switch for the first time, and although we've had fun when playing it, the constant struggle with the entry price is making this title really hard to recommend. I've seen numerous people accurately describe this as, "A great game as long as you didn't pay for it." While the majority of this review will focus on that statement, lets kick it off by looking at what comes on the card!

Thanks to an image Nintendo posted on twitter, we now know some of Nintendo Switch’s lineup for 2017. Please take a look at the following image and read my thoughts on the lineup. Right now, we know five games that are coming to the Nintendo Switch on launch day: Breath of the Wild, 1-2 Switch, Super Bomberman R, Skylanders Imaginators and Just Dance. I can see Breath of the Wild and Skylanders selling well. I suppose Just Dance might do…

Last night, Nintendo streamed the Switch Presentation. And then this morning, Nintendo started streaming Treehouse Live. As I write this, the Treehouse Live is still streaming! For this special More Thoughts From Me, I will cover last nights presentation and what I’ve seen so far of Treehouse Live. I will write another More Thoughts in the future about any additional cool content. So what do I think of the Nintendo Switch so far? Well.. I’m not preordering the Nintendo Switch.…

Nintendo’s Switch presentation is on January 12th. On that day, Nintendo will reveal many things about the Nintendo Switch. But the company isn’t stopping there! The very next day, January 13th, Nintendo will have a Treehouse Live! On January 13th, the day after the Nintendo Switch Presentation in Japan, Nintendo will hold a Treehouse Live! The Treehouse will air at 9:30 A.M. EST (8:30 Central) and be available on youtube and twitch. Nintendo announced this Treehouse Live on twitter and…

2017 is almost here! Yes, we still have all the holidays to go through and New Years, but after that, we are off to another year. Last week, I talked about the games I loved this year. This week, I want to talk about the games I can’t wait to play next year! Just like my list last week, this list is pure Nintendo. What am I looking forward to in 2017? Let’s take a look: Legend of Zelda: Breath…

I have owned a number of bluetooth earbuds in the last couple years, but they have always been cheap and generally pretty useless. I'm not talking about a bluetooth headset for answering calls, mind you, but an actual set of bluetooth earbuds for listening to music while moving around your home, or perhaps exercising. While I can't say I loved everything about the Outlier Sports, I can say the audio was top notch, and the connection flawless. Two key components to a quality audio product.

Last week, Nintendo posted a new video that focused on their upcoming NES Classic Edition system. This new video was a Nintendo Minute! Kit and Krysta show off the system and a couple of the games. The video and my impressions of what they showed are below. The NES Classic Edition system is coming on November 11. This new system, for those who don’t know, is a smtaller version of the original NES system. It does not use carts like…
