They say you shouldn’t look a gift horse in the mouth, but I can’t help asking the following question. I keep seeing third party games being announced for the Nintendo Switch. I think its a great thing. I love that third party games are coming to the system. I hope we see more. That said, will the third party developers stick with the system? Will they bring more games? Nintendo fans have been down this road before. We have been…

Nintendo of America did a Nindies Summer Showcase video presentation today. A lot of games were shown off. Check out the video below and please come back for my opinion of the showcase and the games shown. The Nindies Summer Showcase today was really good. I wasn’t sure it would be at first because I didn’t find the initial games that impressive (Super Meat Boy Forever looked ok, but not my sort of game). But then we got big news…

Nintendo of America loves their Nintendo Directs and video presentations (so do I!). And so it should come as no surprise that another video presentation is coming up soon. This time, Nintendo will highlight Indie games coming to the Nintendo Switch! Nintendo of America’s Nindie Showcase video presentation, according to their twitter account, will highlight “multiple indie games coming to Nintendo Switch.” The presentation will be up at 10am PT on Wednesday, August 30. There is no word on what…

LEGO Worlds will be coming to the Nintendo Switch next month. Check out this new teaser trailer for the game. LEGO Worlds is coming out for the Nintendo Switch on September 5th. I enjoyed Minecraft on Wii U but LEGO Worlds looks even more exciting. Creating worlds and other things with LEGO blocks looks fun! The trailer above showed off a lot of variety for the game too. Also, imagine being able to play this game no matter where you…

Miitopia is not Tomodachi Life. That said, there are some things they have in common and of course I will be mentioning Tomodachi Life some in this review. Don't worry though, you don't have to play Tomoadachi Life to understand Miitopia (or vice versa).

REDMOND, Wash., Aug. 8, 2017 – Imagine standing on the big stage, controller in hand. Everyone in the audience is cheering your name, and even more are watching live at home. After advancing through the tournament, you are about to start the finals. If you win this round, you will be named the Nintendo World Championships 2017 tournament winner. Your heart is beating. The competition begins…

In part 1 of our Review-in-progress, we looked at the crazy rpg battles of Miitopia, in part 2 we visited some Inns, and in part 3 we took a trip with some Miis. Welcome to part 4, the final part (dun, dun, DUH). This time we'll check out the goofy sights and wonderful sounds of Miitopia. Will you want to plug your eyeballs into this weird game? Will the wonderful sounds charm you? Here we gooooo....

Once upon a time, there was a game called Miitopia. In this game, there were turn-based rpg battles and strange trips to Inns. But how do you get from point A (battles) to point B (inns)? How do you move around in Miitopia? And is it interesting? Let’s find out the answers to these questions! There is no open world in Miitopia. Instead, the map in this game is kind of like the one you find in modern Fire Emblem…

Yesterday, we took at look at the rpg gameplay of Miitopia. And now today, in part 2 of our review-in-progress, we’ll take a look at one of the things that makes Miitopia a sim. Here’s where things feel a little bit similar to Tomodachi Life and a little bit different too. Let’s visit the Inn! Don’t worry too much if you start running low on health in the dungeons and levels of Miitopia. At the end of every level there…
