More Thoughts From Me Special Edition: I Have A Switch!

I thought I wasn’t going to get a Nintendo Switch till Christmas. And then, one day recently, I found out we were able to get a Nintendo Switch! We called up Gamestop and found out that they had two systems left. We went over there, picked up the system, a 64 GB micro SD card, and two games! I came home and…well, let me tell you about it in the rest of my column ok? Welcome to a More Thoughts…

Miitopia Review

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).

I’m not a Monster Hunter fan. I’ve have tried demos of the other games and didn’t care for them much. But Monster Hunter Stories looked different. The game has cel-shaded graphics and a turn-based rpg battle system. I like both. Would I like Monster Hunter Stories better than the games it was related to? I got a chance to find out with the recently released 3DS eshop demo. Here are my impressions of it. I wasn’t sure what to expect…

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.

Here is it folks! The beginning of the end…I mean…the beginning of our Miitopia (3DS)Review-in-progress! Today we will take a look at Miitopia’s battle system. It’s definitely “unique”. Spoiler Warning in case you don’t want to know anything about the battle system or the interconnected job system. Miitopia has a turn based battle system. On the surface it seems a lot like what you’d find in other jrpgs on the 3DS. The top screen in where the action takes place…

The Strange and Wacky World of Miitopia

Miitopia came out on Friday last week. I bought the game on Friday and have played it a lot since then. Today, I want to provide you with some impressions of Miitopia. What do I think of the game so far? A villian is going around stealing faces from Miis and its your job to get those faces back. Thats the basic plotline of Miitopia. There is a little bit more to it, all the time, but I don’t want…
