In Part 1 of our Paper Mario: Color Splash Review-in-progress, we examined the writing and graphics of Color Splash. In today’s part 2, I want to look at the game’s battle system. Color Splash uses cards instead of stickers and while the battle system is turn-based, it is also very different from Sticker Star or any of the other Paper Mario battle systems. The most important question is: is the battle system any good? In Paper Mario: Color Splash, a…

Lets face it guys! I love YO-KAI Watch, but I’m far from an expert on the game. For that, I always turn to my good YouTube friend, Abdallah – https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsDtTzkvGxxw95C4IOfZ7dw. We’ve done a great job looking at most aspects of the game, except one: QR Codes! If you’ve been playing for a while now, you know that getting coins for the Crank-a-Kai can be incredibly difficult, but if you take advantage of the QR codes printed on all the YO-KAI…

I liked the first Disney Magical World because it was one part sim, one part action game, with a dash of rpg and tons of Disney magic. There was just so much to do in the game. And today its sequel, Disney Magical World 2, is out! We have the details below, plus a trailer for the game! Disney Magical World 2 is now available for the 3DS in retail stores and on the 3DS eshop. This new Magical World…

3D action platformers seem to be making a comeback these days. For awhile, we were seeing mostly just 2D platformers, but now 3D platformers seem like all the rage. Gurumin 3D: A Monstrous Adventure for the 3DS is a 3D action platformer, but its also has rpg and puzzle elements too. The game is out now for the 3DS eshop. We received a review code for the game, however our review isn’t ready yet. We wanted to give you a…

Paper Mario Color Splash has taken a lot of flak from fans who didn’t like the previous entry in the series Sticker Star for the 3DS. Those fans said that the game looked too much like Sticker Star and they were not willing to give the game a chance to prove itself. I wasn’t a big fan of Sticker Star, but from the moment I saw Color Splash, I had the opposite reaction of those fans. I was really excited…

Circle Entertainment always brings interesting Japanese rpgs and games to the 3DS. One of the games that I really liked that they brought to the system was called Fairune. The game was an action rpg with very detailed 8-bit style graphics. Awhile back, we found out that there would be a sequel to the game called Fairune 2. It was a given that Circle would bring that title to North America too. Now we have a North American release date…

I love role playing games. I was a huge fan of the Final Fantasy games until they turned into action games. And I really love Dragon Quest 9 from Square Enix too. So when Square finally announced that Dragon Quest VII: Fragments of the Forgotten Past was coming to the North American 3DS, I was excited. I couldn’t wait to play the game! And now I’ve played the game, I’ve finished it, and I finally have a review for you. Did Dragon Quest VII live up to my expectations after all this time? Read on to find out!

This week we’ve been looking at Paper Mario: Color Splash in the lead up to the game’s launch. Today the game arrives on the Wii U eshop and in retail stores. We provide our plans for our upcoming review coverage below. Paper Mario: Color Splash is out for the Wii U right now. I’ve been hearing a lot of good things about the game on twitter, however I’ve been avoiding reviews because I’ll be writing one of my own starting…

All this week I’ve been looking at just Paper Mario Color Splash, however today I want to look at the other Paper Mario games along with Color Splash. Paper Mario has seen five games in its franchise now (including Color Splash), plus a spinoff crossover with the Mario & Luigi franchise. Nintendo loves their Mario rpgs. Which one of the Paper Mario games is the best so far? Which one is the worst? And where does Paper Mario Color Splash…
