Dillon’s Dead-Heat Breakers Demo Impressions

I wasn’t a big fan of Dillon’s Rolling Western for the 3DS. I never did play its sequel. And so when Dillon’s Dead-Heat Breakers was announced for the 3DS, I wasn’t excited. Why was Nintendo bringing Dillon back again? Even so, when the demo for the game came out today I thought I’d give it a look. What did I think of the game? Check out my impressions of the demo for Dillon’s Dead-Heat Breakers below! Dillon’s Rolling Western and…

PixelJunk Monsters 2 Nintendo Switch Demo Impressions

Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs

Not all strategy rpgs are created equal. Sometimes you get a strategy rpg like Final Fantasy Tactics, other times you get cheap knock-offs, or sometimes you get strategy rpgs that are good but could be so much better. Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs came out for the Nintendo Switch recently. Its a strategy rpg with a mix of adventure and a tiny bit of sim to it. Is it a good game though? Lets take a look! Regalia: Of Men…

Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs Brings Strategy, Adventure And Humor to the Nintendo Switch

There are so many strategy rpgs coming out all the time for the Nintendo Switch and other systems. Most of these games take themselves very seriously. There’s nothing wrong with that, however it would be nice to have some more humor in these games. Enter Regalia: Of Men and Monarchs, a game that blends strategy rpg with humor and some Text Adventure too. I got a review code of this game and have played it some. Here are my thoughts…

Nindies Showcase 3.20.18

Nintendo of America had an Indie (Nindie) showcase today. You can check that video out below and then please come back for my impressions of it. Today’s Nindie Showcase was not very good. There were no major surprises like Fornite or even a release date for Wargroove. None of the previously mentioned indie games from other showcases were mentioned at all. The video was also very short. Now, I’m not saying that there were no interesting games at all in…

Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom Preview

Few Japanese Role Playing Games in the last decade have grabbed me quite like Ni No Kuni 2: Revenant Kingdom has. The last few JRPG's that had a huge impact on me - in terms of how much I wanted to play them compared to the other games I owned - were probably Tales of Symphonia back on the Nintendo Game Cube, and Tales of Vesperia on the Xbox 360. I've always taken a liking to the Tales franchise, but in recent years, I've been fairly disappointed in their offerings. Tales of Berseria was good, but not what I had hoped. Once I got a few hours into Ni No Kuni ...

If you've never had the opportunity to play Don't Starve, I'm almost likely to tell you to forget this pack coming in April and go grab a digital copy of the game now. That being said, the Mega Pack - which is releasing April 17th - packs a ton of content into a retail launch, including a skin for your PS4 or Xbox One controller! Check out the details below!

More Thoughts From Me #109: What Are the Nintendo 3DS Games of 2018?

Nintendo is currently very focused on the Nintendo Switch. They released a ton of games for the system and will be releasing even more this year. And yet, they still have the 3DS too and have said there will be games for it this year. They have already released a new Kirby game in January and will release Detective Pikachu in March. But will there be other games? What will those other games be? I love the Nintendo Switch. I…

Age of Empires Definitive Edition Impressions

Often times, when you remember a game from your youth, you tend to look at it through rose coloured glasses. In preparation for the review of Age of Empires Definitive Edition, I pulled a very old PC out of the basement, set it up, and ran my own personal copy of Age of Empires: Rise of Rome. And ladies and gentleman, that game is awful, especially when you look at all the great Age of Empires games that have launched since then. When Microsoft announced that we would be getting a new Age of Empires experience, all remastered and brought into the 21st ...
