Switch News

The Nintendo Switch launch day is either going to be extremely exciting or extremely disappointing. To be honest, it's going to be great because I'll be playing Breath of the Wild. But will my day one purchase be just for one game, or will it have the longevity that the Wii U never had. That is my worry as we get closer to the launch of the Switch.

For the first time ever, Nintendo will have a television ad during the Super Bowl! An extended cut of the ad, which is about the Nintendo Switch, has been released online. Please take a look at the ad, Nintendo’s press release about it, and some thoughts from me about this unique ad! The Nintendo Switch will be coming out on March 3rd. With the Wii U and 3DS, Nintendo has rarely showed any television ads for the two systems outside…

Friend of the site, Abdallah (Twitter, YouTube) was at PAX South over the last few days, and besides doing a panel, he was all over the floor checking out the Nintendo Switch. I would normally have numerous impressions for PAX (although I'm partial to PAX East because of my location!) I'm (fortunately...unfortunately?) on vacation for the next couple weeks. As to not deprive you of your Switch news and previews, we've embedded a number of Abdallah's videos below! Be sure to use the links above and follow and subscribe!

From all account, the Nintendo Switch event in Toronto was a fantastic experience for those lucky enough to attend. It all kicked off Friday for a press and VIP event with minimal crowds and lots of accsess to some of the biggest games coming to the Nintendo Switch around launch. Although a regular staffer from GamesReviews was not able to attend, friend of the site, Eugene Huo was able to attend on our behalf. Check out his interview with a Nintendo of Canada rep below!

Indie developers have bought a lot games to the Wii U (and some to the Wii also). And it looks like that won’t change with Nintendo Switch. Tomorrow Corporation, who has two of the games on Wii U and one on Wii, will be bringing those games to the Switch. We have the details below. World of Goo was a puzzle game for the Wii. It was an absolute standout game for Wiiware. This was at a time when not …

The Nintendo Switch is just around the corner, and GamesReviews.com will be getting it's first hands on experience courtesy of GamerParent.net! Through a great partnership, Eugene from GamerParent will be live with Nintendo this Friday getting hands on with the Nintendo Switch, and hopefully a few interviews with key Nintendo of Canada personal. We should have plenty of coverage up during the event.

I Am Setsuna, an rpg published by Square Enix, will be a launch title for the Nintendo Switch! We have more details below. I wrote about my excitement for I Am Setsuna recently and I’m happy to report that the title was announced as a Nintendo Switch launch title today. It will be available digitally at launch for North America and Europe. Here is how I am Setsuna is described: ““I AM SETSUNA follows the story of Setsuna, a young…

When Nintendo announced that there would be a Direct this week for Fire Emblem, I tried not to set my hopes too high. It was very likely that only Fire Emblem Warriors and maybe that Fire Emblem mobile game would be shown. This week, we found out the mobile title would indeed be shown. I was still trying my hardest not to get excited about today’s direct, however I was secretly hoping that we’d get a new 3DS game. As…

Last week, we found out that Nintendo would be holding a Fire Emblem Direct. It was thought then that Nintendo would only be showing off the upcoming Fire Emblem Warriors for the Switch. Now we know that more than one title will be shown during the Direct. In fact, we know about one other “game” that will be shown during the Direct. Find out about that below. I will also offer some speculation as to what else might be shown.…

Indie developers with games near completion need to push their products to market for the first few months following the launch of the Nintendo Switch. Your average Switch owner will be very busy with The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, but how long will that last. Within a month, you will see the drop off begin and people will be looking for what's next. With what seems like minimal interest in Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, there is an open window for some indie games to make a big impact.
