More Thoughts From Me Special Edition: An Awesome New Nintendo Direct
There was a Nintendo Direct today and as the title says “It was awesome.” How was it awesome? Did you even watch that Direct? If you didn’t, check it out below and come back for my thoughts on what was shown. Today’s Nintendo Direct is the best one we’ve had for awhile. I was amazed by so many of the things we’ve saw. First of all, I am a huge Warioware fan. So the announcement of a new Wariorware game…
Read MoreShowndown With the Scribblenauts
The Scribblenauts franchise has never been super popular but it has always been unique and interesting. One of my favorites was the Scribblenauts DC Universe game for the Wii U. Things haven’t looked great for the franchise and I doubted we see another game. And so it was a surprise when Scriblenauts Showdown was announced for the Nintendo Switch. The game is out now and I received a review copy of the game! My review isn’t ready yet, but I…

Read MoreThe Trial: Frontier Challenge Impressions
On the surface, The Trial: Frontier Challenge from 22cans doesn't appear to be a very great title, and if you were to watch a few YouTube videos to see if you'd like it or not, you likely won't pick it up. There isn't anything really sexy about this title that will draw you in, but somehow, despite all those preconceived notions, I found myself dumping hours upon hours in game. And for the record, I haven't even finished it yet. I've been having so much fun treading through new areas, and revisiting past areas, that I've almost sidetracked myself from the ...

Read MoreTwin Robots: Ultimate Edition Review
Two robots walk into a bar…ok, no bar, but two robots do walk into a sticky situation. One robot is trapped under glass, with a crusher headed his way, and the other is on the otherside and has to get to a big red button to stop the crusher. After the robot under glass is free, the two robots must make it to the end of the level. The game I’m describing is called Twin Robots: Ultimate Edition and its…
Read MoreKirby Star Allies Demo Impressions
I haven’t always been a Kirby fan. In fact, I didn’t know much about the big pink fur ball until the Wii Virtual Console. I saw the NES Kirby game for download there and thought, “Why not?” and downloaded it. And with that, I was a Kirby fan for life! That said, I have always liked the more traditional Kirby eats everything games more than the other more gimmicky games (though Kirby Robobot was pretty cool). So Kirby Star Allies…
