I was born in the 1980s. So for me, there is a lot of nostalgia to be found in those years. The 90s, not so much, but there was so much I loved in the 80s. From cartoons to tv shows to movies, the 80s has cool stuff in spades. When you get a movie (Ready Player One) or a video game, such as The VideoKid, thats all about taping into 80s nostalgia than I’m interested. I recently got The…

Starlink: Battle for Atlas Review
When Starlink was officially announced, and a partnership with Nintendo was formally shown off - which included the Starfox Crew! - there was a lot of hype and a ton of hesitation. As more and more companies opted to leave the toys-to-life genre (Skylanders on hiatus, Disney Infinity folded, LEGO Dimensions folded), it was shocking to see Ubisoft Toronto invest so heavily into it, with a brand new franchise no less. Now that we've got our hands on the products, and see what the game is all about, is it really worth your while to pick up plastic toys once ...

Last night, I finally bought Undertale for the Nintendo Switch. Yes, I know I’m very late to the bandwagon. And I’d also normally just write a More Thoughts about Undertale (I still might) but I had thoughts about the game after playing it last night. I just had to share! Undertale is such a strange game. First you get attacked by a flower, then you get saved by a creature who wants to keep you locked in her home, and…
Read MoreMonster Loves You! for Nintendo Switch
Monster Loves You! is a text adventure/simulation game for the Nintendo Switch in which you create a monster through the choices you select. Yes, there are pictures in the game but they are not as important as the dialogue and descriptions. There are no animations in Monster Loves You at all. Monster Loves You! is a different kind of game for the Nintendo Switch…but is it a good one? Monster Loves You! is not like any game I’ve played on…

Hey Adam Roffel, Thanks for setting up this trip to Torna. I haven’t had a vacation in forever. Please tell Nintendo I said thanks too. So far, things are pretty interesting here.

Read MoreXenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna -The Golden Country Review Part 4
Parts 1, 2, and 3 of my Torna – The Golden Country review-in-progress are already up. In part 4, I will talk about the game’s graphics. Xenoblade Chronicles 2 is wonderful looking but I think Torna looks better! The characters in Xenoblade Chronicles 2 have always had a unique cel-shaded look to them, but Torna takes it to the next level. In cutscenes, especially, the characters in this game look animated movie quality good with more realistic expressions and better…
