Read MoreNX Rumors Continue to Mount, Nintendo Will Not React
If anything can be learned from the year of 2016, it is that fan hype can destroy something that, when released, is still very good. The initial thought here would be No Man’s Sky. A quiet development team and so much fan hype ultimately led to mediocre scores for the anticipated titles. I feel the same way right now about Nintendo and the NX. We are only 8 months away from the launch of the Nintendo NX – if Nintendo’s…

During E3 2015 a bunch of Indie demos were released on the Wii U for people to try out. One of the games people could play was called RIVE.

Read MoreNintendo Needs New Games at NX Launch
The rumors continue to swirl regarding the Nintendo NX, and lately these rumors have revolved around what type of launch lineup we might see. I think a fair assumption would be that we will see the new Legend of Zelda game get a release on both the Wii U and the Nintendo NX, similarly to what was done with The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess on the GameCube and Wii. However, rumors of other titles are not as appealing, at least not to me. Many have talked about re-releases of Super Smash Bros, Splatoon, and other Nintendo Wii U greats, alongside some ...
