I've never been a big fan of the Minecraft genre of games, mostly because of the graphical deficiencies, and because I feel I'm too dang old to start getting involved now. However, one game over the past year has really grabbed my attention, and I've spent hundreds of hours with friends and families building up little towns and villages complete with castles, homes, workshops, and more. I'm talking Portal Knights, one of the better sandbox titles to release this past year on console, and it is coming to Nintendo Switch.

The title to this article may be a little misleading. No, this isn’t a Nintendoom article. I’m not about to tell you that the Switch is doomed. Instead, I’m here to talk about Doom for the Nintendo Switch. I received a review copy of Doom for the Switch on Tuesday. I’ve been playing since then and here are my impressions so far of the game! I only own a Wii U, a 3DS, and a Switch and so Doom for…

Super Mario Odyssey is out now and if you have Switch and you are not playing it, what the heck is wrong with you?! Seriously! You are missing out on the best Nintendo Switch game and the best Mario game yet! I never thought Nintendo would be able to make a better Mario game than Super Mario Maker, but they have really done it with Super Mario Odyssey. I barely think about Super Mario Maker anymore. Build my own 2D…
