The new wave will include Goonies, Harry Potter, and Lego City Undercover. What is being released specifically? Please check out this video from Disney Dan…

The NES Classic Edition has been rare since day one. I couldn’t get one then and I still don’t have one now. I had the money at day one, but don’t have that now so couldn’t buy one even if I could find one. But why would I even want an NES Classic Edition? I’ve bought most of those games over and over again through the Wii, 3DS, and Wii U. Heck, I use to own the original NES. So…

The Defenders of the Triforce experience, a unique real life escape room event, was announced last year. Nintendo will be attempting to bring the Legend of Zelda to real life for fans across eight U.S. cities. What about Canada though? Will Canadian fans be able to visit the land of Hyrule too? The answer is yes. The Defenders of the Triforce experience was announced in November of 2016. What is the experience? Here is how Nintendo describes it via a…

This More Thoughts From Me is about Edutainment games. You can and should learn from video games. Its great to have a fun game that has  an entertaining story. We all want that escape from reality. Fun is important. But why can’t you, sometimes at least, have fun and learn something too? Most people seem to think of Edutainment as a genre for kids. Many of these games are, in fact, designed for little kids. Some, such as Brain Age,…

Thanks to an image Nintendo posted on twitter, we now know some of Nintendo Switch’s lineup for 2017. Please take a look at the following image and read my thoughts on the lineup. Right now, we know five games that are coming to the Nintendo Switch on launch day: Breath of the Wild, 1-2 Switch, Super Bomberman R, Skylanders Imaginators and Just Dance. I can see Breath of the Wild and Skylanders selling well. I suppose Just Dance might do…

Last night, Nintendo streamed the Switch Presentation. And then this morning, Nintendo started streaming Treehouse Live. As I write this, the Treehouse Live is still streaming! For this special More Thoughts From Me, I will cover last nights presentation and what I’ve seen so far of Treehouse Live. I will write another More Thoughts in the future about any additional cool content. So what do I think of the Nintendo Switch so far? Well.. I’m not preordering the Nintendo Switch.…

Lego City Undercover is one of my favorite Wii U games. I am still surprised that the game remained a Wii U exclusive for so long. Of course, all good things come to an end (especially when dealing with third party developers) and Lego City Undercover will be going to the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC this Spring. Check out the first trailer for the game below. Lego City Undercover is a very good game. I enjoyed…

Not only that, but if you are a My Nintendo member you’ll get 10 percent extra off of…

The very next day, January 13th, Nintendo will have a Treehouse Live! On January 13th, the day after the Nintendo Switch Presentation in Japan, Nintendo will hold a Treehouse Live! The Treehouse will air at 9:30 A.M. EST (8:30 Central) and be available on youtube and twitch. Nintendo announced this Treehouse Live on twitter and…

For Christmas this year, I got a game I thought I’d never get: Lego Dimensions! It wasn’t that I didn’t want Lego Dimensions. I love most of the franchises that the game includes and I’m a big fan of the Lego games. The problem, for me, was the price of the game. Fortunately, the game was on sale and I got it for Christmas. I also recieved the Lego Doctor Who level kit! I played around with Lego Dimensions a…
