Switch News

Video game accessory maker Snakebyte has launched a number of products for the Nintendo Switch, and were nice enough to send over some samples for us to look at. While I'm fairly picky about the accessories I purchase - and frankly, who I purchase them from - I was very impressed with the items Snakebyte had to offer. Although I'm not as familiar with this brand as I am with other popular brands, I extended the same reviewing courtesy to these as I would anything else. And to be honest, Snakebyte is doing something with their peripherals that other companies ...

PDP Promised to create a number of videos that would detail how to put skins and protective screens on your Nintendo Switch hardware. After another company posted to reddit about the dangers of skins, and the damage they could do to your system, PDP quickly announced that their skins were officially licenced by Nintendo and would not cause outer damage to the Switch unit or dock. We proved this in the video you can find here.

Nintendo posted all three videos in the Making of the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild series today! We have those videos below for you to watch. We thought that Nintendo would only post one of the Making of the Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild series today, but they posted all three! If you like the Breath of the Wild, these videos are well worth watching. Please take a look at all three videos and let us…

Nintendo will post the first of a three part video series tomorrow! The videos will be about the Making Of the Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. Check the preview of the first video below. We will post the first video tomorrow as soon as possible. Also, please keep an eye out for my next More Thoughts From Me! I’ll be talking about Breath of the Wild for the Wii U. Have you played Breath of the Wild? What…

Mario Kart 8 was wonderful on the Wii U. In fact, I would say it was the best Mario Kart yet! I especially loved the added Zelda and Animal Crossing DLC. And in April, Mario Kart 8 will be coming to the Nintendo Switch as Mario Kart 8 Deluxe. What makes this game the deluxe version of Mario Kart 8? Take a look at the trailer below and come back for my impressions of it. Mario Kart 8 Deluxe for…

Luigi got a year but Mario gets a day every year! Nintendo will be celebrating MAR10 day tomorrow. We have a press release below that details what Nintendo has planned for the day. Everybody’s favorite plumber (sorry Luigi) has his own day on March 10th. Check out this press release from Nintendo for details on what they will be up to tomorrow. “REDMOND, Wash., March 9, 2017 – Every year, MAR10 Day (March 10, Mar. 10, MAR10 … get it?)…

Earlier this week, we published our review of 1-2 Switch, and noted that despite their best efforts to market this as a full retail release, that title fell flat pretty quickly. The same cannot be said about Snipperclips, however. With a price tag of only 19.99, Snipperclips is the must own title for Nintendo Switch, especially if you want to show what the Joy-Cons - separate from the console - can do.

The Nintendo Switch comes out this Friday! If you haven’t already, please check out Adam Roffel’s review of the console itself. And if you were wondering what the Switch’s eShop looks like, take a look at the video below and then come back to hear what I have to say about the new eShop. The Nintendo Switch’s eShop looks very bland. The design of the shop is very basic and uninteresting, especially compared to the 3DS and Wii U shops.…

Nintendo had a special Nintendo Switch Nindies Showcase video on youtube today. In the video, they showed off Indie games that are coming to the Nintendo Switch this year. We have that video here for you, plus my thoughts on some of the games and a press release from Nintendo! I thought the Nindies showcase video was fantastic! There were a lot of good looking games in that video, but there were three games specifically that stuck out to me.…

With the launch of the Nintendo Switch, it is inevitable that companies are going to start pumping out accessories for the system, some officially licensed, and others not. Performance Design Products (PDP) have been making officially licenced Nintendo products for a number of years now, and have once again obtained the blessing of Nintendo to do it again. Last Friday, a few of these items came to me from PDP, and for the most part, I'm really impressed.
