Nintendo continues to roll out huge announcements, and if we have learned anything this week so far, it is that big announcements don't necessarily need to be new IPs! One of the best Mario and Luigi games to have ever been released is coming back, new and improved, on the Nintendo 3DS. Get ready for Mario and Luigi: Superstar Sega + Bowser's Minions!

We are getting Metroid Prime 4 for the Nintendo Switch next year but this year we will be getting a reimagining of Metroid 2 from the original Gameboy. This title will be 3DS exclusive and be called Metroid: Samus Returns. We have more information about the title below, a trailer, and my impressions of the game! Metroid: Samus Returns will be coming to the 3DS on September 15, 2017. There will be a regular edition and a special edition that…

Ever Oasis is now available for pre-purchase on the North American 3DS eshop! We have a new trailer for the game and my thoughts on it. Ever Oasis can now be pre-purchased from the 3DS eshop. This means that you can pay for and download the game now but won’t be able to play Ever Oasis until June 23rd when it comes out. Here is a trailer for the game: I like how the above trailer gives an overview of…

Atlus USA announced three 3DS JPRGS are coming west! Atlus USA announced on twitter today that they will be bringing three 3DS JPRGS west. The first is Etrian Odyssey V: Beyond the Myth. It will be coming out for the 3DS this Fall. Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology was announced next and it will be coming early 2018. Finally, Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux was announced and it will be coming early 2018 also. We should be seeing more of…

Today was the much anticipated Pokémon Direct that was to outline games coming to the Nintendo Switch and the Nintendo 3DS family of systems. While there was much talk about what we would potentially see - a rerelease for Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, Pokémon Stars on Nintendo Switch - what we got was, well, slightly disappointing for some, and pretty exciting for others!

Farming Simulator games have never been that strong on handhelds, and when I heard that Farming Simulator 18 was coming to the 3DS and PS Vita, I wasn't the least big excited. If your read our review of Farming Simulator 17, you'll know that we absolutely loved that game, stating that it combined all the elements of past Farming Simulator games that were well received, and left behind the problematic issues. When loading up Farming Simulator 18, I was hoping for something similar. Had Focus Home Entertainment and Giants found a way to push off those handheld ...

Tomorrow morning at 7 AM PDT, Nintendo will be hosting a Pokémon Direct to talk all things Pokémon. With E3 2017 just around the corner, it seems odd that Nintendo would be doing this now, but I expect a fairly big announcement tomorrow to hype people up for what Nintendo has at E3 – if what they were already going to show wasn’t enough!

Fire Emblem Echoes-Shadows of Valentia is the latest game in the Fire Emblem franchise. Last week I provided our readers with an in-depth look at the game with my review in progress. Please check out Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, and Part 4. Today I want to give you my final review of the game. Is Fire Emblem Echoes-Shadows of Valentia a good game? Shadows of Valentia is huge game. It took me over 50 hours to complete it.…

Story is always super important in Fire Emblem games. Fire Emblem Awakening and Fire Emblem Fates had huge complex stories with a lot of dialogue, in cutscenes and support conversations. Fire Emblem Echoes is no different. For part 4 of our review in progress, we’ll take a look at Echoes’ story, how its gameplay ties into it, and whether or not the story and gameplay so far live up to the previous games. We’ll try to keep things as spoiler…

I continue to play Fire Emblem Echoes a lot. I currently have thirty hours on the game and the ending is nowhere in sight. Echoes, like the previous games, is a really well put together game so far. And one of the most impressive parts of the game is the sounds: soundtrack, sound effects, and the voice acting. In part 3 of my Review in Progress, I’ll take a look at the spectacular sounds of Fire Emblem Echoes. Right away,…
