Sometimes, reviewers have it hard. We have to review some pretty awful games occasionally. We do this so you don’t have to play them. And then there are other times when we play a game that we know is good, but, personally, we don’t really care for it. I think I hit upon one of the latter games lately. I have been playing The Lost Child by NIS America for review. I know the game is good, but its not…

The puzzle platformer genre never gets old in my opinion. It seems like some developer is always coming up with a unique and interesting new game for the genre. Pode is the newest puzzle platformer for the Nintendo Switch. The game is out today for the eshop. I got a review code of the game and have been playing it. My review isn’t ready yet, but I thought I’d give you a look into the world of Pode. Is this…

When Nintendo unveiled Super Smash Bros Ultimate at E3 2018, my first reaction was, "Is this it for Smash Bros?" In a game that promises to feature all the fighters from past titles, as well as stages from past titles, should we expect this release to be the swan song for the franchise. While I feel that Super Smash Bros will continue as Nintendo launches more systems, there is plenty of evidence to say that isn't going to happen.

Last week during E3, Nintendo and Square Enix released a new demo for Octopath Traveler.

Here are my thoughts on Octopath Traveler's newest demo!

Soccer Slammers is on Switch to celebrate the World Cup! Atooi are doing a lot of good games for the Nintendo Switch. They are working on bringing my favorite Atooi game, Chicken Wiggle, to the Nintendo Switch. I can’t wait to see that! And they brought Soccer Slammers to the Nintendo Switch yesterday. I got a review copy of the game and have had time to play it. What do I think of Soccer Slammers? Soccer Slammers for the Nintendo…

The tower defense genre can be a mixed bag at times. I’ve played some tower defense games that were really good, others that had potential but were a bit too complex, and still others that were too simple. Alchemic Jousts for the Nintendo Switch is a tower defense game that looks good, but is it? There is no story or setup for Alchemic Jousts. Instead, the player is a given tutorial pop-up boxes that help teach you how to play…
