Word Logic by POWGI Release Date and Trailer
During E3, I played a demo of Lightwood Game’s next word game: Word Logic by POWGI. I liked the demo a lot. It was a hard game, but it was also a very good one. Lightwood Games has now confirmed a release date for Word Logic and posted a new trailer. We have both for you below. Word Logic by POWGI will be coming to the Wii U and 3DS on August 18th.

Read MorePDP Launches new amiibo Stands
There are people in this world how are outstandingly creative, and when it comes to creating home made shelving units to hold their plethora of amiibo, they create something that wows the internet. Unfortunately, I'm not one of those people, so until this past week, most of my amiibo have been buried in a storage container beside my television. Sure, my favorite Yoshi amiibo was proudly displayed on the PDP Warp Pipe amiibo stand, but that was about it. This August, PDP launched more amiibo stands at great prices, and were kind enough to send me a few. Look ...
Read MoreNintendo Power Online Archive
Last week on More Thoughts From Me, I told you about Nintendo Power. Some of you may have had no clue what I was talking about, while others were probably smiling and taking a trip down memory lane. For both of those groups, there is now something very cool on the internet. A site called archive.org has 13 years of Nintendo Power magazine online right now! When I wrote about Nintendo Power last week, I had no idea about archive.org’s…
Read More3Souls Episode 1: Nelesa Review
I’m always disappointed when a Wii U game doesn’t use the gamepad much. We’ve seen a lot of indie games and even some Nintendo games, that only use Off-TV play and nothing else. When a game comes along that has unique and fun gameplay that uses the gamepad, such as Affordable Space Adventures, I’m always happy and hoping that we’ll see even more games like it.
Read MoreCost Prohibitive to Play Old Pokemon Games
Like many Pokemon fans, I have been reliving the originals – Red, Blue, and Yellow – on my 3DS XL and I have been loving them. Since I’m almost done Yellow, however, my fun with Pokemon is about to be cut before the release of Pokemon Sun and Moon release later this year. Nintendo needs, and should, release more remakes, because the cost of acquiring these games themselves is very high. I recently perused eBay for used copies of various…
Read MoreMore Thoughts From Me #28: Guarding Star Fox
I remember seeing Star Fox Guard back when it was just an untitled camera switching game at E3. I didn’t think it was very impressive and wasn’t sure if it was even really a game. Flash forward to the Star Fox Guard reveal from Nintendo. I still wasn’t very impressed by the game. There didn’t look to be much to it. But I couldn’t help wanting to try the game sooner or later. Nintendo gave us a demo of Star…
Read More3Souls – Episode 1 Preview: The Wii U Gamepad Gets A lot of Use
Recently, I received a review code of a Wii U game called 3Souls Episode 1: Nelesa from the game’s developer Red Column. My review isn’t ready yet, but I thought since the game came out today that a preview was in order. What do I think of 3Souls so far? Here are my early thoughts! I’m always complaining when indie developers don’t use the Wii U gamepad much. I love Off-TV play, but there’s so much more that you can…
