More Thoughts From Me #104: SNES Classic Hands-on Impressions

I tried and failed to get an NES Classic. Then the SNES Classic came out and I failed to get that too. I thought I’d never get either one of them. And then early last week, Amazon had a Lightning deal on the SNES Classic. I managed to finally buy an SNES Classic! Now that I’ve played with the system some, is the SNES Classic worth all this trouble? How are the games on the system? How do they play?…

Nintendo Labo Has Brought Out the Toxic Gaming Community

Many hard core Nintendo fans were really excited for yesterday's Nintendo presentation, and ultimately seemed to leave with a sense of severe disappointment. A lot of great ideas were being floated around the Internet, ideas that would get anyone excited: Animal Crossing making its way to Nintendo Switch, perhaps a accessory kids could use throughout the day, that could be synced to their Switch at night, and so on.

New Update Coming to Super Mario Odyssey

Super Mario Odyssey was one of the BEST games of 2017, and received outstanding scores from almost every media outlet on the planet. It wasn't just because 'open world' 3D Mario games had been a thing of the past, but how well Nintendo returned to that gameplay style. The fun hasn't stopped for Super Mario Odyssey, and in today's first Nintendo Direct of 2018, the company announced new updates coming in the near future!

Kirby Battle Royale Demo Impressions

My bet is on an experience that mimics the turn based games we've come to enjoy on Nintendo's handheld system, and after much conversation with my good friend Paul Hunter - you can ...
