Add me to the group of folks that thought Mario Kart Live: Home Circuit was going to be a gimmicky mess when it launched, but with just a weekend of play under my belt, and a Mario Kart that has been charged 7-8 times, add me to the new group of folks admitting to being wrong. Mario Kart Live is an absolute blast - I initially thought this would just be fun for my kids, but my wife and I are enjoying it as well.

We’ve seen a lot of Metroidvania’s on the Nintendo Switch but what about a Metroidvania that combines elements of an rpg and a visual novel? Enter Even the Ocean for Nintendo Switch, a hybrid of sorts: one part Metroidvania, one part rpg, and one part visual novel. Is it any good? Even the Ocean isn’t defined by just one genre. At first glance, its a Metroidvania. And then you see its world map and you think “oh its an rpg”…

Do you like Metroid? If the answer is yes, than buckle up! A new Metroid-like game is coming out today on the Nintendo Switch eshop! Its called Two Parsecs From Earth. Is it a good game? Let’s find out! Two Parsecs From Earth isn’t a Metroidvania game. Its a very Metroid-like game. What’s the difference? Well Two Parsecs doesn’t really have any Castlevania in its blood. Instead its very much Metroid: searching underground for powerups while avoiding enemies. There are…

I love Kingdom Hearts. I think I mentioned this before. I’m a big fan of the series. However, I am not a rhythm game fan. So when Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory was announced…I was excited?! What?! Well, Kingdom Hearts does have great music. Plus its a Kingdom Hearts game that is coming to the Nintendo Switch! A demo has been released now and I’ve played it. What do I think of Kingdom Hearts Melody of Memory? Kingdom Hearts has…

Its always good to try something new once and awhile. When I noticed that I had a code for a game called Roommates, I looked into it. A visual novel? A dating sim? Hmm. I don’t know. I skeptical. Still. You should try something every once and awhile. And so I tried out Roommates for the Nintendo Switch. Roommates is a visual novel with dating sim elements. What’s a visual novel you ask? Basically a visual novel is a game…

Whatever happened to the brawler genre? One day, every game was a brawler, and the next it was gone. It had become retro, with new content consigned to stylised sequels like the incredible Streets of Rage 4. 9 Monkeys of Shaolin is an attempt to bring those old titles back in something feeling a little fresher – and it mostly succeeds. But not just that. 9 Monkeys of Shaolin is a perfect combination of genre and theme, bringing back kung-fu…

Nickelodeon, a major part of most people’s childhoods of a certain generation. Myself, I was a bit older but still enjoyed some of the original Nicktoons like Doug, Rocko’s Modern Life, Ren + Stimpy, etc etc. Over the years they have done numerous mash-up games such as Nicktoons Unite (which was awesome), Sports games, racing games, and yes even racing sequels like this one. Nickelodeon Kart Racers 2 is just what you think it is, a typical kart racer-inspired heavily…

I am a huge Kingdom Hearts fan! I loved Kingdom Hearts 3 and I’ve played most of the other games. So when Kingdom Hearts: Melody of Memory was announced for the Nintendo Switch, I was excited. I’m not a big rhythm game fan but this is Kingdom Hearts! I love the music in those games! So I’m willing to give this game a chance. Thankfully, we will all get a chance to check it out today! A demo of Kingdom…
