On Friday, we received a review copy of Dragon Quest Builders 2 for the Playstation 4 from Square Enix. I’ve been playing the game all weekend. And now I want share my thoughts about the game in this preview! I played the first Dragon Quest Builders on the Nintendo Switch and liked it. I wasn’t sure what to expect for its sequel. Would it be better? Would it be more of the same? And since I was going to review…

In “Light gun” games, you control the gun (or target) that you move to shoot at enemies and not your character. In the past, games like this came with physical prop guns that you shoot at the screen with. Now that motion controls are here, you can just move the joycon around to shoot at enemies. Mad Bullets is a “light gun” game for the Nintendo Switch. Is it a fun one though? Mad Bullets is unplayable. At least, that…

I just got Super Mario Maker 2 this week. Yeah, I’m running a little late. I’ve been making up for lost time though by playing this game a lot. The mode I’m playing the most? Super Mario Maker 2’s story mode! Super Mario Maker 2 takes everything that was great about the first game and adds to it, plus adds in online multiplayer and…a story mode?! I admit when I first heard there was going to be a story mode…

Dragon Quest Builders 2 will release tomorrow, July 12, 2019 for the Playstation 4 and Nintendo Switch. Here is the launch trailer for the game! It looks like Square Enix is taking Dragon Quest Builders to the next level with this seque. The buildings look even bigger, the story mode looks more interesting, and there’s just so much going on in this game. I was especially impressed by the part with the airplane in this trailer and liked the look…

Every game has its “year” or at least it feels like it. I think Dragon Quest has had more than one year, surely, but this year is without a doubt feeling like Dragon Quest’s year. Why is that? Why should you care? Why do I care? What are my favorite games in the series? Why am I glad the series is still around? I’ll answer some of those questions in today’s More Thoughts! Not only is Dragon Quest Builders 2…

Another day, another Metroidvania. There are so many games in this genre on the Nintendo Switch, that is can be difficult to pick the good ones from the bad ones. Not all Metroidvanias are created equal. Paradox Soul, a Metroidvania for the Switch, recently came out. Is it a good Metroidvania, an ok one, or should you be avoiding this paradox? Paradox Soul is a very simplistic Metroidvania. Yes, like a lot of Metroidvania games you’ll find yourself backtracking a…

Fire Emblem: Three Houses will be out on July 26, 2019 for the Nintendo Switch! Nintendo has released a new video today spotlighting one of the three houses in the game. The combat in Fire Emblem: Three Houses looks really great. I’m not sure yet whether I’ll like the house aspect of the game. I have heard that there is some kind of big twist in the game though that should make things even more interesting then it initially seems.…

I played Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening when it first came out on the original Gameboy. I didn’t play the Gameboy Color version till years later on the Nintendo 3DS. I like both versions but I have to say, my hype for the upcoming remake is bigger than my nostalgia for the original game. Lets talk about Link’s Awakening for the Gameboy and why I think the remake will completely erase all memory of the original. Link’s Awakening for the…

Cuphead arrived on the Nintendo Switch this year. Not only that but DLC was announced for the game too. Today, a teaser was revealed for the dlc and a delay! Cuphead “The Delicious Last Course” DLC will arrive on Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Windows 10, and STEAM in 2020. We have no specific release date yet. On twitter, Studio MDHR (the developer) said that “We’ll be taking a page out of Chef Saltbaker’s book and spending time to get this…

Dragon Quest Builders 2 comes out next week! Check out the trailer below, which shows off the multiplayer in the Playstation 4 verison of the game. Dragon Quest Builders 2 is coming out on July 12th for the Playstation 4 and the Nintendo Switch. As shown in the newest trailer, DQB2 has online multiplayer. Building together looks like it would be a lot of fun. It might be easier to track down some building materials too and make bigger projects!…
