A wonderful site called WiiWareWave had a contest on twitter to win a Wii U indie game called Discovery. Discovery is yet another brick creation game in the vain of Minecraft. I had already played two other block creation games (Cube Life for Wii U and The Magic Hammer for 3DS) and thought they were just ok. And yet, I keep wanting to like this genre. I love creating things. So, I entered the contest to win Discovery and, of course, I won. After a couple of days with the game, I decided it was time to talk about it. Is Discovery any good?

I don't think anyone was surprised that Nintendo announced Twilight Princess HD, and because of that, people also shouldn't be surprised that a Wii U - possibly NX? - title would have amiibo compatibility. Unlike other games that add minor things to the game - except perhaps Mario and Luigi: Paper Jam - it seems like amiibo in Twilight Princess HD will actually add more than just a costume. It appears as if this announcement has led to Internet outrage.

If you've had the opportunity to play ARK: Survival Evolved, you know that the first number of hours can be incredibly frustrating. If you don't die a lot, you are probably doing it wrong. The game doesn't hold your hand in any way, which makes online guides so incredibly valuable. While we won't be putting something together that as in depth as some of the Wiki's already available, we will share with you our top tips for playing.

If reviews from popular gaming websites are to be believed, Animal Crossing: amiibo Festival is at best a rarely fun experience, but generally a snooze fest, legitimately. Some reviewers said they fell asleep playing this. We picked up the title over Christmas, and sure, some of what these reviews are saying is legitimate. However - and I have spoken about this in the past - it shows a disconnect between hardcore Nintendo fans and the casual audience Nintendo continues to cater too. My son Logan falls into that second category.

I know you have questions. You’re probably thinking: there were other thoughts from you? And, wait, just who the heck are you? My name is Daniel Fugate. I’m a writer, reviewer, and blogger. As a blogger, I’ve written my More Thoughts From Me column for awhile now. Never heard of it? I’m not surprised! My readership at that blog is…pretty low… But, you know, its nice to have a reader that believes in you. Games Review’s Adam Roffel said he…

It is time for yet another video from our good friend Jezy. This time around, he is unboxing the Turtle Beach Recon50 which Turtle Beach was kind enough to send him. Jezy will be taking about two weeks to use the headset and work on his review, which should go live at that time.

The last few years have not been the greatest for Nintendo. The 3DS - while still popular - never found the success the original DS had, and the same can be said about the Wii U - more drastically - when compared to the Wii. Fans and haters will sit around for the first half of 2016 waiting on Nintendo NX news. One party getting ready for the hype, and the other looking for reasons to hate. If I am speaking honestly, the Wii U is my least favorite Nintendo console, but has some of my favorite Nintendo games. In my house, Nintendo games stay, while other ...

Sometimes, looking at old headsets is never a bad idea. While they can sometimes be difficult to find, you will often find them at a more attractive price. This is definitely the case with the MVP Monster Carbon headset which has universal capability across Playstation, Xbox, and PC. We figured we would start the week of right by looking at another video from @OMGitsJezy! Nothing like an energetic voice and personality on YouTube to get your week started!

So yes, the rumors are definitely true. ARK: Survival Evolved is the dinosaur game that we have always wanted. Sure, there have been a handful of good dino games in the past...ok may be one or two, but soon players on Xbox One will get a massive, exciting, dinosaur adventure. Whether it's simply being awestruck by the views throughout the world, or actually engaging in the many activities available, there will be something for everyone in this pre-release title.

2016 is going to be a great year for gaming, with a whole host of titles we've been waiting for for years. Whether it's The Last Guardian or Uncharted 4, you just know your wallet is going to be empty all year around.
