Today’s Nintendo Direct was…well…it wasn’t great. I was a little disappointed overall. There were a few great announcements though and one announcement that I freaked out about! I’m talking about the return of Tomodachi!! I have to talk about this. On the 3DS, I played the heck out of Tomodachi Life. The weird Mii sim was just absolutely crazy and I loved it. You created Miis and then put them into an apartment. After that you could give them gifts,…

Heat: Pedal to the Metal will be getting a tunnels expansion later this year, and in anticipation of that coming, we were sent the base game to try out and review. I’ve never been a huge fan of racing games, likely because I’m not very good at them. However, after a few rounds of Heat, I can safely say that perhaps some racing games are in fact for me.
