Although I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I launched Worms Rumble on Nintendo Switch, I was glad to almost instantly see that cross-play with other consoles was an option. With no knowledge of the title whatsoever, the thing I wanted to know was: will people actually be playing this on Nintendo Switch? Will it run OK on the system? Thankfully, even if players aren't on Nintendo Switch, I was hoping in and out of most games with relative ease, and enjoying a fairly smooth experience along the way.

Rotterdam, The Netherlands – 8 July 2021 – Farming experience Real Farm is launching on PlayStation® 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch as the Real Farm – Premium Edition on September 30 this year. The game recently received a substantial free ‘Gold Edition’ update on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, which includes all previously released DLC along with many fixes for remaining bugs, a UI/UX overhaul and graphical enhancements. This Premium Edition takes it a step further, taking advantage of the graphical processing powers of the next generation of consoles.

One of the biggest surprises of E3, in my opinion, was Metroid Dread. I know it was rumored and speculated that Nintendo might do a 2D Metroid game before Prime but honestly I did not think that would happen. And if they did, I thought it would just be a remake like Samus Returns was. Instead, we are getting a full blown Metroid 5. Let’s talk about it! I still can’t believe Metroid 5, aka Metroid Dread, is on the…

There’s a great quote that I think successfully sums up Nintendo’s OLED Switch announcement. It’s attributed to Henry Ford, although he didn’t actually say it. “If I’d have asked people what they wanted, they’d have said faster horses”. Well, Nintendo, people are unfortunately screaming for faster horses, and you gave them the same horse in a stupid hat. The Switch is a juggernaut, and it isn’t going away any time soon. Nintendo have no obvious direction once this console is…

The original Yo-Kai Watch was a fantastic title that was given a Western release around 2014, and since then, the Yo-Kai Watch fever has hit a select few in the west. Unfortunately, just as Level-5 began porting over and releasing new titles on Nintendo Switch, they also closed down their North American offices, killing any hope of getting these titles localized in the west. So for longtime fans, the only way to play the remake of Yo-Kai Watch, or Yo-Kai Watch 4, is to play the Japanese version and hopefully find people to help with the translation.

There are a number of reasons why someone might want to purchase games on a non-native Nintendo eShop. Whether there is a good sale in a specific country, getting a game before it's available in your own region, or perhaps playing something not available in your region at all, getting games from different regions is pretty easy, although it can cost just a bit of money if you begin making purchases!

The wonderful graphics, the awesome turn-based battle system, and excellent exploration really caught my attention! And I enjoyed today’s Monster Hunter Stories 2 broadcast a lot!…

With the launch of Mario Golf: Super Rush on Nintendo Switch, the internet is having a hot debate around whether or not Nintendo is selling fans of their franchises unfinished games, with the promise to finish them later. Are we actually get Nintendo Early Access titles? Fans have pointed to both Mario Golf: Super Rush and Mario Tennis Aces as two titles that were shipped unfinished, but I'm coming at it from a different perspective.
