It looks like Nintendo is continuing to release more content for past releases, and while many are teased or promised well in advance - such as promising more courses for Mario Golf: Super Rush - some are completely unexpected. Thanks to the Pokémon Twitter account, we learned this morning that New Pokémon Snap was getting brand new content and areas to explore, along with new Pokémon to photograph! How awesome is that!

Read MoreI Wasn’t Expecting THAT in Pokémon UNITE!
In the last few years, there is one constant with Pokémon games: expect new releases in the mainline games AND a few weird experiences along the way that just freaking work. Game Freak has done that again with Pokémon UNITE, which has been available on Nintendo Switch since July 20th, and coming to mobile later this year.
Read MoreWhat’s Next for Super Smash Bros?
We’re nearly there – the final piece of DLC for Super Smash Bros Ultimate is on the horizon and then the biggest celebration of video games will come to an end. But what a legacy it will have. But it also marks a fork in the road for a franchise that has reached its peak. Do the developers continuing doing exactly the same thing, just with less characters? How does that go down after the success of Ultimate? Do they…
Read MorePDP Pull-N-Go Case Holds It All – GIVEAWAY!
While we still believe that the Elite Player Backpack from PDP gaming is the best way to take your Nintendo Switch on the go whenever you leave the house, we are equally as impressed with the much more compact storage and carry solution, the Pull-N-Go case.

Earlier this year, two other photograph centric titles were released. One, and indie title called Alwa: A Wildlife Adventure, had you traversing an island attempting to photograph wildlife and bring awareness to ecological preservation. You attempted to stop a hotel company from building a brand new hotel on a delapetated nature reserve. The other, New Pokemon Snap, was a bit bigger of a title, allowing Pokemon fans to capture ...

Wait. What? Its been twenty years since Final Fantasy X came out?! What?! Wow. It doesn’t feel like that long at all. Time really flies. But you know, I do remember how I got the game. Let me tell you all about it. It started with a Playstation 2 demo disc. I think I got it at Babbage’s. Gamestop did not exist yet. I saw that there was a demo of Final Fantasy X there and I had to have…
