I talk about the InkyPen Nintendo Switch app awhile back. Ever since then, I’ve been using the service and enjoying it a lot. Though I was disappointed that not many comics were being added. Then yesterday, the service received a big update. Let me tell you about it. InkyPen features a lot of cool comics, everything from Transformers to Star Trek to Hellboy, and it received some more comics yesterday. Along with even more Transformers, some Godzilla, and others, the…

I am a huge Castlevania fan. I love the NES ones, the SNES games, Symphony of the Night, and all the GBA and DS ones. And so when Konami announced last night that there would be an Anniversary Collection of Castlevania games released this year, well, I went nuts. There will also be an arcade collection and a Contra collection! Konami has announced that they will be releasing Arcade games, Castlevania, and Contra collections this year. They will be available…

Nintendo had an Indie (Nindie) showcase video today! You can check it out below and then please come back here for my thoughts on the showcase. I thought that the Nindies Showcase video was pretty good! Probably the best one in awhile (though its lack of Steamworld Quest was distrubing. Yes, I know it was in the last one but still). The showcase got off to a great start with the reveal that Cuphead is coming to the Nintendo Switch!…

I was going to write about Final Fantasy 3 (DS) for this installment. And then I got World of Final Fantasy Maxima for the Nintendo Switch and I completely stopped playing FF3. I think I’ll get back to it eventually. Maybe. But for now, I decided to write about World of Final Fantasy Maxima instead of FF3. Mainly because I have a lot to say about this game. Wow, do I ever. So sit back, relax, and check out my…

Do you think its too soon to have another video about Indie games for the Switch? If you said no, then you’re in luck! Nintendo of America announced a Nindie (Indie) Showcase video for this Wednesday. 30 mintues of Nindies?! Wow. Thats a lot of games! I wonder what new games will be revealed during the Showcase. I am surprised that we are getting another video from Nintendo this soon. We just had a couple. Not that I’m complaining! I…

What do you get when you mix dungeons, wizards, and aliens into a tower defense game? You might get Dungeons and Aliens for the Nintendo Switch! Is this mix of fantasy and sci-fi great, good, just ok, or plain bad? Check out my review of Dungeons Aliens for the Switch below! Dungeons and Aliens is a 2D tower defense game in the style of Plants VS. Zombies. The player’s character(s) is on the left side of the screen, while the…

Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom has been available on the Nintendo Switch eshop for a little bit now. I hadn’t had the chance to play the game yet. I had seen previews of it and thought it looked good but other games were distracting me. And then today, a demo was released for Monster Boy. I decided to download it! What do I think of the Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom demo? Check out my impressions below! Right…

Nintendo launched a brand new trailer for the Captain Toad Special Episode DLC which is launching today on the Nintendo eShop for 5.99; the entire bundle - full game plus DLC - can also be purchased for 45.98, via the Nintendo eShop.

Square Enix has released a new trailer showing off all the Final Fantasy games that are coming to the Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4 (also: Final Fantasy 9). Please take a look at it and then come back for my thoughts on the games. I absolutely love this video. What a fantastic legacy of games! Most of them will be coming to the Switch and Xbox One this year. Chocobo’s Dungeon EVERY BUDDY and Crystal Chronicles will be…

Yoshi’s Crafted World is launching later this month, and thanks to Nintendo of Canada we have had the opportunity to jump into the experience for a few days now. Here is the early good news: for as far into the game as I am, the charm I experienced playing the demo a few weeks back is alive and well, level after level after level.
