When Nintendo announced and showed off Bakugan: Champions of Vestoria, Nintendo fans went into a fit of rage over the title. "Who wants this game." "Know one is going to play this game." The comments are unfortunate, and come from a self centered crowd. For one second, did these folks stop to think that may be Bakugan isn't for them? It isn't for me, I can say that with absolute certainty. Want to know who it is for? My kids.

Earlier this year, reviews for Hisense's Q8G model of TV began hitting in the interwebs, and it seems as if reviewers have been generally impressed with the model. While Hisense might not be the first brand that pops into your mind when you think about purchasing a new TV, perhaps it should be. While we have yet to try a Hisense TV ourselves - which we hope to rectify soon - went and hunted down some folks who are using these TVs, to get some of their insights.

Wingspan has taken the board game world by storm since winning the 2019 Kennerspiel des Jahres for best connoisseur game of the year. Designed by Elizabeth Hargrave and published by our friends at Stonemaier Games, this 1-5 player game will have you placing birds in specific habitats to score points, with the winner having the most points after 4 rounds.

COVID 19 has created a host of problems around the goal, taxing health care systems, designating businesses, and ultimately hurting millions of folks who have lost jobs and household incomes due to the inevitable recession. And while Government works to cut checks to those who need it most, many have bills coming in, with barely enough - and sometimes not enough - income to keep them going. Video game sales and console sales are also going to take a hit.

Thanks to our friends at The LEGO Group, we have been looking and and reviewing a number of fantastic LEGO Super Mario products. You can read our review of the Starter Kit here! While my kids really enjoyed putting the starter set together, it became quite obvious that more sets were going to be purchased, as the kids really wanted to expand their course building options. Let's take a look at LEGO Super Mario - Mario's House and Yoshi Expansion!

When Nintendo and LEGO partnered up to release some building sets, I was incredibly excited. I had visions of beautifully crafted sets that utilized amazing mini figures. After all, have you seen the Disney Minifigure Collection? It's brilliant, and I fully expected Nintendo to match, or exceed, that line-up. Then the sets were revealed and demoed and my excitement went from a 10, down to a 4. Now that I've played with the starter kit, have my initial thoughts changed? Let's take a look!

Through the Ages is one of the best board games, both in my opinion and based on the opinion of millions of users on Board Game Geek. While the game appears incredibly complex when you get it out of the box - there literally are hundreds of cards to sift through, sort, and set up! - the game play is so intuitive and easy to understand, and by your third or fourth round, it will all feel very natural.

When LEGO and Nintendo first announced the LEGO Super Mario line-up of building block sets, I was incredibly skeptical. Instead of traditional LEGO minifigure sized sets, LEGO opted to created more interactive experience with large, chunky character and figures to play with. And from early reviews across the board - from brick review companies to video game review companies - reviews of the toys have been surprisingly good, pushing me to buy up any stock I can! There is one problem though - I cannot find local stock.
