The first Dragon Quest Builders is coming to the Nintendo Switch next month! I have never played the game before and I’m pretty excited about it. You know what got me even more excited for it? Square Enix released a demo today for the game! A demo for the first Dragon Quest Builders was released for the Nintendo Switch today. I downloaded the demo and here are my intial impressions of it! I wasn’t sure about Dragon Quest Builders before…

A Nintendo Direct was rumoured for today but Nintendo never made an official announcement for it. I was starting to have my doubts that we’d see a Direct. As it happens, we did get a Nintendo Direct! You can check it out below along with my initial impressions of it. I’m not going to hide my opinion here: I was disappointed with this Nintendo Direct Mini. Yes, I do think it was partly because the Direct was so hyped and…

It's been a long while since a Mario Sports game had a story mode, and for the Mario Tennis franchise, you'll have to go all the way back to Mario Tennis on the Gameboy Advanced. With the promise of a new story mode, new tennis mechanics, and more, can Mario Tennis return to its former glory on Nintendo Switch? Based on the trailer we got today, we definitely think so!

Super Mario Odyssey was one of the BEST games of 2017, and received outstanding scores from almost every media outlet on the planet. It wasn't just because 'open world' 3D Mario games had been a thing of the past, but how well Nintendo returned to that gameplay style. The fun hasn't stopped for Super Mario Odyssey, and in today's first Nintendo Direct of 2018, the company announced new updates coming in the near future!

With another Nintendo Mini Direct in the books, the gloves are off and writers around the world are going to start dissecting what Nintendo is offering fans. The initial impression for some wasn't great: too many Wii U games and older games on other systems being ported to Switch. Based on the low install base of the Wii U, and that many Nintendo fans ONLY own Nintendo consoles, bringing all of these 'older' titles to the Nintendo Switch is actually a really smart idea, and in no way causes assumptions of laziness on the part of Nintendo, and other developers ...

Chicken Wiggle on the 3DS is a great game. Check out my review here. I highly recommend the game if you have a 3DS. Of course, if you just have a Nintendo Switch, then you are all out of luck at the moment. Chicken Wiggle is not on the Switch right now. But…it could be on the system eventually… On twitter today, Jools Watsham from Atooi announced that they are “Gauging interest…via a kickstarter campaign” of bringing Chicken Wiggle to…

We all know that a Pokémon game is coming to the Nintendo Switch, hopefully in 2018, but the details of such a game are currently in the dark. Will it be an upgraded version of what has been working on handhelds for 20+ years, or will it be something in the vein of Pokémon Snap? Or, will Nintendo look to do something crazy and different, bringing the franchise in a new direction? My bet is on an experience that mimics the turn based games we've come to enjoy on Nintendo's handheld system, and after much conversation with my good friend Paul Hunter - you can ...

Despite an odd release date for a home console - March typically isn't when new consoles launch - Nintendo looks to have made the correct decision as it was announced this week that the Nintendo Switch is the fastest selling console in US video game history, within a 10 month span. Released March 3rd 2017 worldwide, Nintendo has had a very successful year after a lackluster 2016, and for many gamers, have been deemed the 'winners' of 2017.
