Xenoblade Chronicles – The Franchise I Cannot Wait for on Nintendo Switch 2

I’ve been a Nintendo fan for as long as I can remember, and being a fan of Nintendo means you probably gravitate towards specific games. For me, that’s anything Mario related. While I’m less of a fan of the Mario 2D entries, if a Mario game gets released there is a 99.9% chance that I’m going to play it. Reviewing games for the past decade has helped, but even if I didn’t, they would almost all be day one purchases…

Assassin’s Creed Shadows Launching on Nintendo Switch 2

Assassin’s Creed Shadows was one of our favourite Assassin’s Creed titles in the modern console era, and for good reason – traveling across Japan was a blast, and the two character story arch was really fun to play out.

I can take worse graphics and worse performance, but not down right terrible. And frankly, ARK: Survival Evolved on Nintendo Switch was a hot mess from day one. Over the course of the games lifespan on the original Nintendo Switch, it did slowly get better. But the development team was hindered…

Plants vs Zombies Replanted (Nintendo Switch 2) – It’s Back and So, So Good!

There were a few reasons why I wanted to review Plants vs Zombies Replanted on Nintendo Switch 2, and it all came down to control options. I think everyone is aware that these games are best played on a mobile device or a tablet, so to bring them to console is a bit of a weird play from EA. That said, regardless of which control scheme I was using in Replanted, I was having a blast – the design team…
