It is inevitable that Nintendo will release an Animal Crossing game on the Nintendo Switch 2, and based on the popularity of the original – which MAY have been inflated by COVID – I expect a new game to be even bigger, and even better. Even if the number of people who played on Nintendo Switch was inflated by the pandemic, Nintendo needs to cash in on that desire for a similar experience now, not later. Releasing Animal Crossing early…

On the PlayStation 1, a Final Fantasy game came out that was totally different from what we’d seen before. Final Fantasy Tactics took a turn-based strategy rpg approach and became a true classic. And this year, that game returns with The Ivalice Chronicles. Back in the PlayStation 1 days, I played a game called Final Fantasy 7. Thats the game that hooked me on rpgs. After that, I had to play every rpg and especially every Final Fantasy I could…

Disney Dreamlight Valley’s second paid DLC: The Storybook Vale, got its second and final update today! We have a trailer for the update and some thoughts on this addition to the game. The Storybook Vale – Part 2 is now available if you bought the DLC. You must have complete Part 1 of the DLC in order to play this new addition to it. Unfortunately, I haven’t finished the part 1 of the DLC because I ran into a glitch…

Do you like finding hidden treasures? Morgan: Metal Detective, out later this month, will arm you with a metal detector so you can find hidden treasure in the ground. Check out the release announcement trailer below along with our thoughts on the game. Morgan: Metal Detective will release on July 30th on PC, PS5, Xbox Series, and Nintendo Switch. This game absolutely looks like my type of thing. In the game you get a metal detector and have to go…

I love simulation games. I also happen to love Lord of the Rings. So to say I’m excited for the upcoming Tales of the Shire simulation game is an understatement! Let’s talk about this game. On July 29th, we’ll get to live in the Shire as a Hobbit. Well, if you get Tales of the Shire for the Nintendo Switch (or other systems) that is. Yes, Tales of the Shire is a simulation game where you play as Hobbit. You…

A lot of original Nintendo Switch titles are getting patches to work on Nintendo Switch 2, and here are just a few of the games we feel need to take advantage of the Nintendo Switch 2 mouse support via updates and patches! Let’s get going! Two Point Series: At the time of writing, the Nintendo Switch does not currently have a version of Two Point Museum available, but we assume that will be coming at any time now. When that…

A bunch of media in the United States and Canada were given extended hands on time with Donkey Kong Bananza, and as someone who wasn’t, and then was, excited for the game, I watched and read as much as I could. With only a few weeks to go until the game launches, I’ve never been more excited. Let’s talk through some of the comments! First and foremost, Nintendo has confirmed that it is the Super Mario Odyssey team working on…

The Nintendo Switch 2 released several weeks ago, and we’ve seen so many debates over the physical game “download key” issue, that everyone forgot to concentrate on how powerful this handheld device actually is when it comes to actually playing the games. I had the chance to play Split Fiction over the last week or so and I am extremely impressed by the quality of the game on this device. The game was developed by Hazelight Studios, and released officially…

Rune Factory has never been my favourite cozy / farming / RPG experience for a variety of reasons, but mostly I found all the different systems involved a bit too much for my liking. I know others LOVE the Rune Factory franchise, and I readily admit that it’s one of the larger and more loved franchises available on console. Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma just felt different, and while my time with other Rune Factory games is pretty limited, this…

Although it is only a month away, Donkey Kong Bananza cannot come soon enough in my opinion. There has been a lot of chatter about the lack of first party experiences for the Nintendo Switch 2, but once Donkey Kong launches on July 17th, I imagine that rhetoric will die down very quickly. Although I was less than impressed by this new Donkey Kong adventure when the game was first announced and shown off, I’ve come full circle after the…
