For the first time ever, Nintendo will have a television ad during the Super Bowl! An extended cut of the ad, which is about the Nintendo Switch, has been released online. Please take a look at the ad, Nintendo’s press release about it, and some thoughts from me about this unique ad! The Nintendo Switch will be coming out on March 3rd. With the Wii U and 3DS, Nintendo has rarely showed any television ads for the two systems outside…

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…

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.…

Tomorrow night, the Nintendo Switch presentation is being streamed from Youtube. On Friday, we’ll get a Treehouse Live early in the morning that takes a longer look at the Switch games.

On Friday and Saturday in Japan, Nintendo will be holding the Nintendo Switch Experience 2017. This event will let people go hands-on with the…

Later this week (Thursday!), Nintendo will hold a press conference/presentation that tells us more about the Nintendo Switch. What will we find out about the new system? Here are my predictions for the Nintendo Switch Presentation on Thursday! The Nintendo Switch Presentation on Thursday is said to be about an hour. The current President of Nintendo will be one of the presentors, but he might not be the only one. We don’t know for sure what will be shown during…

Nintendo’s Switch presentation is on January 12th. On that day, Nintendo will reveal many things about the Nintendo Switch. But the company isn’t stopping there! 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…

Welcome to the New Year! I'll have a bunch of More Thoughts From Me this year...starting with this one. This time I want to talk about the games I hope get announced this year. Some of the following is based on rumors I've heard and others are based on what I'd like to see! What will 2017 bring us? These are my hopes...

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…

Yesterday, Nintendo of America told everyone on twitter that Super Mario Run (for mobile) would be shown on Fallon. What they didn’t tell everyone is that they’d also show the Nintendo Switch and Legend of Zelda: Breath of Wild on that system. We have the footage of Super Mario Run and the Switch/Zelda below, plus my reaction to the surprise Switch demo. Nintendo surprised everyone by showing off the Nintendo Switch and showing live gameplay on Breath of the Wild…

Steel Series is a leading innovator in the pc and console hardware marketplace, and the quality of their products has always been top notch. We have looked at a ton of Steel Series products over the last year, and almost always have really enjoyed using them. A few months ago we reviewed the Apex 800 keyboard from Steel Series, and really loved it. Not everyone has the funds to purchase that model, however, so we decided to look at a model a step down, the Apex 500 keyboard.
