Thanks to our friends at Ubisoft Canada, I was able to play through and finish Star Wars Outlaws recently on the Nintendo Switch 2. Our very own Daniel Fugate has already reviewed the game, so go check that out. But I wanted to look at a different aspect of the game, the quality. Would Star Wars Outlaws hold up on Nintendo Switch 2? Or was this a quest you should bail on. Let’s take a look. It is no secret…

Over the past weekend, my family and I attended a Nintendo of Canada holiday event for media and influencers. During our 3 hours at the event, we got to play a ton of games, most notably Pokémon Legends: Z-A. I was really excited for this one despite some reservations, so what did I think of it after about 20 minutes? Let’s take a look! The Pokémon demo was split between two different stations. At one station I was able to…

Back in 1998, a game called Final Fantasy Tactics came to the PlayStation 1. The game was different from other Final Fantasy games: it was a tactical strategy game instead of a turn-based rpg like the rest. It went on to become a true classic and spawned two sequels. And tomorrow it returns as Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles! Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles comes out tomorrow, September 30th, 2025 for modern consoles and PC. There are two…

Hello Kitty Island Adventure was highly rated by us on Nintendo Switch when it came out. We enjoyed it a lot. And last week paid DLC came out for the game. We’ve played some of Wheatflour Wonderland. What do we think so far? Here’s our thoughts on Hello Kitty Island Adventure’s first paid DLC on Nintendo Switch. I hadn’t been playing Hello Kitty Island Adventure much lately. I had just been checking in once and awhile with it. Then I…

Getting DLC for Donkey Kong Bananza was not on my Nintendo Direct BINGO card, but it’s been a few days and we have played it all. Thanks to our friends at Nintendo of Canada, we had the chance to dive straight into DK Island so we could share our impressions with you. The DLC on offer here is nothing short of gorgeous, and highlights all the things I love about this 3D Donkey Kong game. That doesn’t make the DLC…

Awhile back, some friends of mine were telling me about a cool sim game that they were playing on PC. It was called Dinkum and they liked it a lot. I wished that it was on the Switch. Finally, during the recent Direct, Dinkum was announced for Switch and a demo was released. I checked it out and here are my thoughts on the game. Day 1. I move to a small island and set up a tent. Day 2.…

One of the biggest surprises of Friday’s Nintendo Direct was that Donkey Kong Bananza was getting paid DLC. Not only that but it actually came out on Friday too. I managed to pick it up and have some impressions of it so far. When I saw that Donkey Kong Bananza was getting paid DLC, the DK Island & Emerald Rush DLC, I knew I had to get it. Thankfully I managed to pick it up. Here are my thoughts so…

I think a lot of people were hoping that Nintendo would announce another Mario sports title during today’s Nintendo Direct, but if you had asked me to rank the sports I thought would be featured, a brand new Mario Tennis game would have been at the bottom of that list. Yet here we are, anticipating another tennis experience in Mario Tennis Fever. Mario Tennis Aces has been out for quite a long while now, and while I’ve always enjoyed the…

Today Nintendo had a Direct. It was “roughly” a 60 minute Direct. It went a little bit over an hour. I have some thoughts on the Direct: the Mario of it all, the shocks, and of course some disappointment. Here we gooooo. Can we just talk about Mario first? I think we should talk about Mario. Today’s Nintendo Direct had a large segment on Mario. It lasted around 20 minutes. Honestly I felt like that was a bit too much…
