With the original release receiving mixed reviews, how does the Switch version fare? Let’s dive right in and find out!

Sidenote: check out the Gamescom Dragon Quest S video below for a look at the game, even the awesome 2D mode! I have eight…

Astral Chain is coming out for the Nintendo Switch this Friday! A launch trailer for the game was released yesterday from Nintendo UK. Check it out below and then please come back for some thoughts about the game. The newest trailer for Astral Chain puts the focus on the game’s action and its story.

Diablo and other overhead dungeon crawlers have their fans, especially on PC. I enjoyed Diablo on the Nintendo Switch a lot, though generally I’m more of a turn-based rpg fan. That said, when I heard that Pillars of Eternity: Complete Edition coming to the Switch, I was definitely interested in checking the game out. It looked very Diablo like. So is it like Diablo? Is it a fun game? Should you check it out for Nintendo Switch? Here is my…

I haven’t always been a Fire Emblem fan. I’ve tried the series in the past, Path of Radiance on the Gamecube for instance, and didn’t care for it. I couldn’t get into Fire Emblem Awakening on the 3DS. But I loved Fire Emblem Fates and Fire Emblem Shadows of Valentia. And so I thought at first I’d be excited for the Switch game. The more I’ve seen of the game though, the less sure I am that its my sort…

I played a little bit of a Japanese demo of Destiny Connect. Unfortunately, the demo was all in Japanese, so I couldn’t understand what was going on. I did like the…
