More Thoughts From Me #74: Revisiting Dragon Quest 7 for 3DS

I felt like playing an rpg again, but I didn’t have any new rpgs on hand. I considered starting a new game on Dragon Quest 7 for 3DS. I wasn’t sure if I wanted to go all through the game again. Then, I remembered that the game had random dungeons that you can visit and fight enemies in. So I decided that I’d revisit my old save file. I was surprised by what I found. I knew that Dragon Quest…

Ever Oasis Review

Ever Oasis is one of those titles that no amount of video, and no amount of dialogue with others will convince you to purchase and play it. This review, perhaps, might be one of those things that unfortunately is completely useless, unless you walk away going, "man, I need to play this game." But, I'm not sure I will be able to properly convey that to you, because Ever Oasis is a game that needs to be played, not read about, to fully appreciate.

Nintendo Booth @E3: Rekindling a Childhood Love

During this first trip to E3 I had the distinct honor and pleasure of a Nintendo Booth tour and meeting with Julie Gagnon, from Nintendo Canada. In preparing for this meeting I reflected on my history with Nintendo, from Nintendo classic to SNES to Nintendo 64 and WiiU. I've had my share of joy from Nintendo Products over decades, from: Mario, Super Mario, Mario RPG, Wetrix, and Splatoon. To be honest, I hadn't played Nintendo games much over the past few years, but this visit felt like visiting a friend from my childhood.

WoW Hacking Techniques and How to Avoid Them

Whether for selling your gold, advertising or simply griefing, hacking in World of Warcraft has been an issue ever since its release. The amount of security Blizzard puts in place is directly proportional with the effort hackers make in order to gain access to players' accounts, so it's safe to say your account's safety shouldn't be taken for granted.

Online Gambling Software Suppliers Explode

There was a time, not too long ago, when the online gambling world was dominated by just a handful of software providers. Players who liked playing slots online spent almost all of their time playing games built by Microgaming, NetEnt, and IGT. Titles from other software companies either didn’t measure up or, more often, never came up at all. No more.

More Switch Cases coming from PDP

Earlier this year, when we unboxed and reviewed our Nintendo Switch, we also looked at a pile of accessories from Performance Design Products. One of our favourite items - outside the Elite Player Backpack which is phenomenal! - was the Nintendo Switch carrying case, which at the time was themed in multiple ways: The Legend of Zelda, generic Mario, and a charcoal gray, classy looking case. PDP is adding another theme to their lineup of cases: Mario Kart!

Ever Oasis First Impressions

Ever Oasis was not something I was looking forward too, and for what ever reason, even the Treehouse Live presentations were not getting my pumped for this release. However, it wasn't until I played the game last night that I understood the huge appeal. I hope more people are willing to give Ever Oasis a try as it could be a very successful, new IP for Nintendo!
