Nintendo will have a Xenoblade Chronicles 2 (Nintendo Switch) Direct on Tuesday. Check out the picture below for details and please read my thoughts on the Nintendo Direct. The Xenoblade Chronicles 2 Direct will start at 6 a.m. PT, which is 9 am eastern/8 am central. We already know a lot about Xenoblade Chronicles 2 for Nintendo Switch, so I’m not sure what new information Tuesday’s Nintendo Direct will give us. New characters? New locations? New plot points? We’ll just…

In part 1 of my Fire Emblem Warriors Review-in-progress, I gave you my initial impressions of the game. In Part 2 , I talked about the game’s graphics. And now in part 3, I want discuss how you fight in the game and the progression of Warriors. It is totally different from a normal Fire Emblem game, but how different is it? Also, why does Fire Emblem Warriors still feel like a FE game if its so different? Fire Emblem…

Its been awhile since we’ve seen a console Fire Emblem game. And we’ve never seen a console AND handheld Fire Emblem game before. That said, we have seen the Fire Emblem characters in HD before thanks to the Smash Bros game on the Wii U. So we know what to expect right? Well, not exactly. The Fire Emblem characters in Warriors look different than the ones we saw in Smash Bros. This entire game is different from that game. How…

I'm not a fan of Anime. I've spoken about my dislike of Pokemon before but generally, I'm not a big fan of the manga/anime genre overall. And yet, I decided I wanted to review One Piece: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition because I thought the gameplay looked interesting.

When I heard that an upcoming indie would mix Golf and the rpg genre together, I was intrigued. I’m not really a sports fan but I tend to like unrealistic golf games. And of course I’m a huge rpg fan. Then I saw previews for Golf Story for Nintendo Switch and became very intrigued! The game looked really good. Well, I’ve finally got my hands on Golf Story and here are my impressions of the game so far. Golf Story…

Last week, I was going to write about third party games. Instead, I wrote about the Adventure games coming to the Switch. This week…well, I have to admit I’m starting to wonder if the Switch even needs third party games! Don’t get wrong: it would be very nice to see more third party games come to the Switch, however, have you seen how many games came out for the system last week? And this week? Plus we have Super Mario…

I’ve never watched the One Piece Anime nor have I read its manga. I’m not a fan of Anime or manga. So when editor-in-chief Adam Roffel asked if I wanted to review One Piece: Unlimited World Red Deluxe Edition for the Nintendo Switch, I was a bit skeptical. But I decided to watch a preview trailer for the game before I decided whether or not I’d review the game. The preview I watched looked interesting and so I decided to…

I didn’t believe the rumor about a Mario crossover game with Ubisoft’s Rabbids. I thought it was just something somebody with a lot of time and an overactive imagination came up with. And when I found out it was true, I wondered how good a game with Mario and the Rabbids could be. I was very impressed by the first footage of the game though. I was starting to get excited about Mario and Rabbids: Kingdom Battle. Would this game…

Earthlock: Festival of Magic is a brand new turn-based rpg for the Wii U eshop. Yes I just said a brand new game for the Wii U! You do not see that very often, especially now that even Nintendo has abandoned the system for the Switch. So I have to admit I was pretty excited for this game. I love rpgs, I love the Wii U, and I think its great to play a new game on the system again.…

One of the biggest surprises of the recent Nintendo Direct was the announcement of a demo of Project Octopath Traveler for Nintendo Switch. I was surprised, in the first place, that Nintendo and Square were showing off the game. I thought Octopath was a long way off and might not be shown off too much yet. So to get footage and a demo on the same day was a shock and delight. I have to admit I’ve been pretty excited…
