Yesterday, there was a Nintendo Direct. The Direct covered both 3DS and Nintendo Switch titles. What did I think of the titles shown? Let’s find out! Nintendo Direct had a new format yesterday. We should talk about that first. The new list style format for Nintendo Direct worked well and had things going at a fast pace. It wasn’t too fast though. This format was definitely interesting. That said, I hope Nintendo doesn’t do this all the time. I can…

I have mixed feelings about free-to-play (or free-to-start) games. On the surface, the idea is interesting: free to download games that you can play and if you like, you can buy more levels or items for the games. But the main problem with free-to-start games is that usually the games are too simple and/or just not that fun. I’m including Nintendo in this because I didn’t think the free-to-start Pokémon games nor Steel Diver were that good. However, if anyone…

Its possible that Disgaea 5 Complete, which is coming to the Nintendo Switch next month, will…

Back in the NES days, I wasn’t an rpg fan. It wasn’t till years later with Final Fantasy 7 that became an rpg fan. And after I really got into rpgs, I went back and was able to appreciate and like the older rpgs. So whenever an indie developer, say KEMCO for instance, puts together a game in the “retro” rpg style I’m excited. Dragon Sinker for the 3DS (Developed by KEMCO) came out last week. It is a new…

RPG Maker FES is coming to the 3DS this summer to North America and the UK. Nintendo UK released a new short teaser for the game today. RPG Maker FES will be coming to the 3DS this summer! I love rpgs and I find it really exciting that this game is coming to the west. We usually do not get games like this over here, especially not for the 3DS. I hope I get a chance to play it! Check…

Not all platformers are created easy. Do you dare take on a hard 1-bit platformer? If so, then you may be interested in this announcement. If not, then you’ve been warned.

The game will be coming to the 3DS and Steam Greenlight! Here are more details about the game directly from the developer:…

Bye-Bye Boxboy came out in Europe yesterday. Nintendo of America announced via twitter this month that the title would come out on March 23rd too. They quickly deleted that tweet and the title did not come out in North America yesterday! What happened? Nintendo of America isn’t ready to say Bye-Bye to Boxboy yet. In a statement to Polygon they said that “incorrect information about an upcoming game for Nintendo 3DS was posted on Nintendo of America’s social media channels”…
