I am a huge Castlevania fan. I love the NES ones, the SNES games, Symphony of the Night, and all the GBA and DS ones. And so when Konami announced last night that there would be an Anniversary Collection of Castlevania games released this year, well, I went nuts. There will also be an arcade collection and a Contra collection! Konami has announced that they will be releasing Arcade games, Castlevania, and Contra collections this year. They will be available…

Nintendo had an Indie (Nindie) showcase video today! You can check it out below and then please come back here for my thoughts on the showcase. I thought that the Nindies Showcase video was pretty good! Probably the best one in awhile (though its lack of Steamworld Quest was distrubing. Yes, I know it was in the last one but still). The showcase got off to a great start with the reveal that Cuphead is coming to the Nintendo Switch!…

Do you think its too soon to have another video about Indie games for the Switch? If you said no, then you’re in luck! Nintendo of America announced a Nindie (Indie) Showcase video for this Wednesday. 30 mintues of Nindies?! Wow. Thats a lot of games! I wonder what new games will be revealed during the Showcase. I am surprised that we are getting another video from Nintendo this soon. We just had a couple. Not that I’m complaining! I…

Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom has been available on the Nintendo Switch eshop for a little bit now. I hadn’t had the chance to play the game yet. I had seen previews of it and thought it looked good but other games were distracting me. And then today, a demo was released for Monster Boy. I decided to download it! What do I think of the Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom demo? Check out my impressions below! Right…

Yoshi’s Crafted World is launching later this month, and thanks to Nintendo of Canada we have had the opportunity to jump into the experience for a few days now. Here is the early good news: for as far into the game as I am, the charm I experienced playing the demo a few weeks back is alive and well, level after level after level.

Sony announced this year that they will not be at E3. This means no E3 conference at all! Why is Sony doing this? Don’t they have anything to show for the Playstation 4 this year?! Some thoughts and theories below! Every year at E3: Sony, Microsoft, and Nintendo show off games. Sure, you have Ubisoft and EA and some other companies, but the big three are always the most anticipated of E3. Not this year. This year Sony won’t be…

With so much focus on the Nintendo Switch these days, its very easy to lose track of what is coming out on the 3DS. Well, GamesReviews.com is here to remind you that there are still games coming for the 3DS and one of them is out tomorrow! Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn will be out on the 3DS on March 8, 2019. Hey, thats tomorrow! Check out my impressions of the game’s demo here. You can download the demo at the…

What do you get when you throw a bard into an action/platformer on the Nintendo Switch? Let’s find out in my review for The Bard’s Gold! The Bard’s Gold is an action/platformer with some rpg elements. There isn’t much of a story; Bard’s Gold focuses on its gameplay. Three difficulty settings are provided: Normal, Retro Mode, and Rogue-Lite. Normal is probably the easiest setting but does come with some drawbacks. In normal mode, the player is only given three lives…

Daggerhood is the latest game that Ratalaika Games are bringing to the Switch. Its an action/platformer and its pretty hard. I have been playing it for review and I have some thoughts on it. Daggerhood is an insanely hard game. In Daggerhood, you play a thief who is out to steal all of the king’s gold. He only has a dagger to get him through all of the insane traps and enemies that he’ll find on his journey. Fortunately, the…

The 3DS is dead, long live the…wait a second. What’s that? A 3DS game is coming out next month. You have to be kidding me! What game is coming to the 3DS?! Its Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn! And Nintendo released a demo for the game today. I still play my 3DS every day and so I decided to download the demo. Here are my thoughts on it. Kirby’s Extra Epic Yarn for the 3DS is an enhanced port of a…
