I had played a demo of Visions of Mana but hadn’t had the chance to play the full game. Then yesterday, it came to Xbox Game Pass. I downloaded it and played it some. Here are my thoughts on Visions of Mana so far. I remember really enjoying the Visions of Mana demo and thought I’d probably like the full game. I wasn’t prepared for how much I liked it! When I started the full version of Visions of Mana…

Today Nintendo had a Direct. It was “roughly” a 60 minute Direct. It went a little bit over an hour. I have some thoughts on the Direct: the Mario of it all, the shocks, and of course some disappointment. Here we gooooo. Can we just talk about Mario first? I think we should talk about Mario. Today’s Nintendo Direct had a large segment on Mario. It lasted around 20 minutes. Honestly I felt like that was a bit too much…

Last week, Chibi-Robo came to the Nintendo Switch Online Gamecube app on Switch 2. I’ve been playing the game a lot recently and some thoughts on it. I thought I had played Chibi-Robo on the Gamecube but as it turns out, I’m pretty sure I haven’t. I’ve been playing the game ever since it came out on the Nintendo Switch 2 last week and it doesn’t feel familiar at all. To me, Chibi-Robo is a brand-new game. For those who…

Today Nintendo had a Direct and it focused one game: Kirby Air Riders for Nintendo Switch 2. I watched the Direct and I couldn’t believe how much I really loved what I saw. Let’s talk about it!

I decided to watch the direct anyway.…

Let’s go to the Shire! I’ve been hearing a lot of bad things about Tales of the Shire. All the reviews came out and said it wasn’t a good game. I wasn’t sure if I would get to play…

A Nintendo Direct aired today and it was okay. It had some good moments, but it wasn’t until the very end that there was any big surprise. Let’s talk about today’s Nintendo Direct! Today’s Nintendo Direct just aired and….it was okay. There are going to be a lot of people who say today’s Direct sucked. I can understand why. I don’t think it totally sucked.

I have a Switch 2! What does this mean?! Well, its means I have some thoughts on the Switch 2 also. Here we goooooo. My birthday was last week and an amazing friend gave me a really amazing surprise: they bought me a Nintendo Switch 2! The Switch 2 came with Mario Kart World and so I connected my Nintendo account with my new system and downloaded some games, including Mario Kart World. And thanks to some Amazon money from…

On the PlayStation 1, a Final Fantasy game came out that was totally different from what we’d seen before. Final Fantasy Tactics took a turn-based strategy rpg approach and became a true classic. And this year, that game returns with The Ivalice Chronicles. Back in the PlayStation 1 days, I played a game called Final Fantasy 7. Thats the game that hooked me on rpgs. After that, I had to play every rpg and especially every Final Fantasy I could…

On July 29th, we’ll get to live in the Shire as a Hobbit. Well, if you get Tales of the Shire for the Nintendo Switch (or other systems) that is. Yes, Tales of the Shire is a simulation game where you play as Hobbit. You…
