When Nintendo announced 3DS re-releases of the original three Pokemon titles, I was fairly skeptical. After all, how desperately did Nintendo fans want to play a slightly improved – although very true to the original – Pokemon game from the early Gameboy days? Frankly, I was not sure how well these titles would catch on. A complete remake of Pokemon Red, Blue, and Yellow in the style of the new titles? That would have taken off like gangbusters, in my…

There are not very many turn-based rpgs on the Wii U. Though, it seems like we will continue to get more thanks to Indie developers. The newest turn-based rpg, Asdivine Hearts, came to the system recently. I got a review copy of the game and have been playing it a lot. Is Asdivine Hearts a good game? Here’s my review.

  Today, Nintendo announced some news about the next Nintendo system (codenamed the NX), news about the upcoming the Legend of Zelda game, E3, mobile, and earnings news too.

Lets take a trip down Disney memory lane. There is…

Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE for the Wii U is a crossover title between the Fire Emblem and the Shin Megami Tensei series. The game will be coming out in June. Nintendo recently released a new trailer for the game. Here are my thoughts on Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE! Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE for Wii U is a very strange looking game. I’ve never played the Shin Megami Tensei series before, but I have played several of the Fire Emblem series…

Kemco has been bringing a lot of rpgs to the 3DS and Wii U lately. Just awhile back, I did a review for their game Justice Chronicles for the 3DS.

I will have a review of the game in the coming weeks, but in the meantime, please read my thoughts on Asdivine Hearts so far! I love role playing games. I’m especially a huge fan…

Insomniac has created some interesting, beautiful, and down right wacky games over the past 15 plus years, but the company will always be most well known for their Ratchet & Clank series. The series itself has evolved in a positive way over time, with each new game building upon the last.
