NIS America is well known for their wacky, very anime inspired rpgs. However, did you know that they are also known for their Princess punching games? Ok, so that are not known for that yet but I think one day they will be. Penny Punching Princess will be out on Tuesday (April 3rd) for the Nintendo Switch. I have a review copy of the game and have played it a little. Here are my first impressions of Penny Punching Princess!…

I have heard of Lode Runner but I don’t believe I’ve ever played it before. When I heard a demo for Lode Runner Legacy had popped up on the Japanese eshop, well, I had to check it out (the demo is now available everywhere). What is Lode Runner Legacy exactly? Is the demo any good? Lode Runner Legacy is brand new game for the Nintendo Switch. Its currently available in North America, Europe, and Japan. I checked out the demo…

LEGO has made a game out of almost everything: Marvel, DC, Pirates of the Caribbean, Harry Potter, and Star Wars. However they have never done a LEGO game based on a Pixar movie…until now! LEGO The Incredibles was announced this week. We have the announcement trailer below, along with my thoughts on the game!

I was really young when the original Mortal Kombat for the NES came out. I remember thinking it was gross but I wasn’t offended by it and neither was my dad. The game was violent but it was over the top cartoon violence. Of course not everyone saw it like that. A small group and the media tried to turn Mortal Kombat into a controversy  There have been a lot of Mortal Kombat games since then but none of them…

Nintendo of America had an Indie (Nindie) showcase today. You can check that video out below and then please come back for my impressions of it. Today’s Nindie Showcase was not very good. There were no major surprises like Fornite or even a release date for Wargroove. None of the previously mentioned indie games from other showcases were mentioned at all. The video was also very short. Now, I’m not saying that there were no interesting games at all in…

Who knew destroying the universe could be profitable? Its also fun! Have I gone mad? Am I now suddenly evil? No, I’m talking about another game of course! Vostok Inc is a game about making money…at the universe’s expense! You have a spaceship and you destroy asteroids, other spaceships, and mine planets for all of their resources. This is a twin stick shooter with some sim elements. And there is a demo out for the game now. I’ve played the…

I decided to check out the Japanese eshop recently. I knew there were one or two demos on there that were not on the American or European eshops. I especially wanted to check out the Dragon Quest Heroes 1 + 2 demo. I am a big Dragon Quest fan and this game has not come to North American (or Europe) yet. It may never come west. So I was happy to get a chance to check the demo out. Is…

There are some games that are so hard that you just want to throw your controller or in the case of the Switch, your system, and give up games altogether. And then there are other games that are hard and yet you don’t want to give up on the game. These are hard, maybe a bit punishing at times, and very addictive. Celeste for the Nintendo Switch fits into that second catogory. Its a hard game. Its also a very…

The Scribblenauts franchise has been around since the DS era. While this series has never been a best selling attention getting game, it has always been unique and different. And now Scribblenauts has come to the Nintendo Switch with a multiplayer focused game. Is Scibblenauts Showdown as good as the other games in the series? This is a very different sort of Scribblenauts game than previous games in the series. With the games on other systems, Scribblenauts has always been…

There are not many first person shooters yet for the Nintendo Switch. The most popular and most well known game in this genre to come to Nintendo’s latest system is Doom. That was a really good port. And now another first person shooter is out for the Switch. The game is called Hollow. Is it as good as or better than Doom? Is it a first person shooter you should play? Read on to find out! Hollow has a very…
