New trademarks for two new Pokemon games have surfaced which probably ruins the purpose behind tomorrow's Nintendo Direct. While there was no console specification on the trademarks, we are left to assume it is another 3DS "Gotta Catch 'em All" iteration. I'm game, are you?

If you don't own a Nintendo system - and the if you don't and have a family, you should! - there are not a lot of titles that appeal to families. They are either to violent and graphic, or they are limited in what can be done locally. LEGO games continue to push against the current generation norm. Would it be hard for Travelers Tales to dump local multiplayer in favour of online multiplayer? Of course, but they haven't, and that means a lot to my family.

When Animal Crossing: Happy Home Designer launched alongside the new Animal Crossing amiibo cards, people were really excited. Based on my experiences going from retail store to retail store on launch day, stock was extremely limited. However, looking back, I'm beginning to wonder how popular these cards have become, or if rather, they are a forgotten thing of the past.

Games that do not require a great amount of knowledge to execute are really, REALLY fantastic. They open up video games to a much wider audience, hauling down the barriers that would otherwise prohibit someone from taking that leap of faith. These games are not bad, mind you; despite their simplicity, they generally have one, major hook: the games are easy to play, but hard to master. Rocket League is this game, and we cannot recommend it enough.

Dying Light came out and focused on running, climbing, and jumping. As you traversed the cityscapes and ran away - or towards - the undead, I never felt like I was being hampered in how I traversed the city. It worked, it was fun, and that was the point. Things are changing with the latest DLC, The Following. Gone is the city, gone is the running. It's all about the open fields surrounding the urban wasteland, and the coolest addition to Dying Light yet, your buggy.

Because I've been away on vacation, and because we've hit a snag trying to incorporate a video player on the site in a good way, it has been a while since we've promoted a video from @OMGitsJezy. However, that is changing, now. Below is a video unboxing and initial review of the PowerA Fusion Pro for Xbox One.

There is a new action RPG coming to consoles that are yet to be determined in 2016 from Focus Home Interactive. It is something new; a new world, new characters, and new items to experiment with. And it all look really, REALLY good. I'm a huge fan of Action RPG's and with the departure of the Tales series from Xbox One, I can only hope this fills that void and lands on my favorite home console.

Techland’s CEO, Paweł Marchewka, recently sent out an open letter to Dying Light Fans outlining continued support for the game throughout 2016. We really enjoyed Dying Light, especially the ability to play most of the game with a partner.

In my personal opinion, survival games never really get old because each developer does something a little bit different. ARK has dinosaurs, Don't Starve is just crazy, and the upcoming The Flame in the Flood incorporates potentially deadly river travel with island exploration.

If you have a free minute or two, you should head over to accounts.Nintendo.com and set up your new Nintendo Account. This account will link all Nintendo purchases together in once place. across mobile, 3DS, and Wii U. The process is very quick and easy to figure out; consumers can register via their Nintendo Network ID, Twitter, Facebook, or Google+. Additionally, you can link all of your accounts in one place, although this is not required.
