Yesterday, Nintendo released a demo of Hey Pikmin! on the 3DS eshop. I downloaded the demo and played it. Today I want to give you my impressions. Is the Hey Pikmin! demo any good? Hey Pikmin! is a different take on the Pikmin franchise. Normally, Pikmin is firmly in the real time strategy genre. Hey Pikmin! changes up the formula. The demo of Hey Pikmin! (out now) includes three levels for players to check out. These levels place this game…

Hey! PIKMIN comes out on July 28th for the 3DS. Nintendo UK has released a new trailer for the game today. Please check out the trailer and then come back for my impressions of the video. Hey! PIKMIN looks fantastic. The graphics look great and there appears to be a lot of strategy to the game. The different types of Pikmin look really cool and will come in handy for puzzle solving, defeating enemies, and collecting stuff. My favorite moment…

Although Snake Pass will be available on a variety of platforms, I've noticed that the Switch version seems to be getting the most love on the Internet. I think this is for good reason, as Snake Pass is a great game to take on the go, as it feels more like a mobile launch than a full fledge console title.

Developer Arc System Works brought two titles, New Frontier Days-Founding Pioneers- and Othello, to the Nintendo Switch eshop today. We have a press release and trailers for the games below. “YOKOHAMA, Japan – March 23, 2016 – Today, Arc System Works is releasing New Frontier Days ~Founding Pioneers~ and Othello exclusively on the Nintendo Switch eShop!  Both games are easy to pick up and play for beginners. Enjoy them both on the Nintendo Switch today! The Nintendo 3DS Downloadable Software…

Lightwood Games will be releasing another game for the Wii U and 3DS this week! This time they are taking on Sudoku in Sudoku Party. You can check out a video from Lightwood and my thoughts on the game below. Sudoku Party from Lightwood Games is coming to the 3DS and Wii U this Thursday, March 16th! I do not understand Sudoku at all. So I will not be reviewing this game. However, despite my lack of understanding, I’m very…

I really like the BoxBoy games. Nintendo’s BoxBoy, a puzzle game created by Hal Lab (creators of Kirby), has already seen two games for the 3DS eshop. A third and final game, Bye-Bye BoxBoy, will see release this month. Bye-Bye BoxBoy! will be coming to the 3DS eshop in Europe on March 23rd. Nintendo of America tweeted earlier today that the game would also be coming to the North American eshop on the same day but have since deleted the…

One of the best things about Indies is that they are not afraid of being weird. Indies generally take more chances than third party developers and create games that are unique and interesting. Not all of these unique and interesting games are good, but I love how Indies are willing to experiment. Take, for instance, Back to Bed for Wii U. You would not see a third party, maybe not even a first party developer, create a game about saving a sleepwalker.

I’m tired. I don’t feel like writing this article. I think I’ll go Back to Bed. Wait. What’s this? There’s a game for the Wii U called Back to Bed? Alright. I guess I can tell you about this game. I did just get the review code for this game yesterday, so I’ll only be able to tell you a little about it. My full review will hopefully be up next week! For now, let’s take a short look at…

Tetris is one of the best video game puzzle games out there, if not the very best. There are a lot of other really good puzzle games too and one of them is Puyo Puyo. I really liked the Mean Bean Machine verison of the series in particular. And now Tetris and Puyo Puyo will have a crossover game with Puyo Puyo Tetris! The game will be coming to the Nintendo Switch in April. We have more details about the…

Recently, we found out that Rime would be coming to the Nintendo Switch (and other systems). Since then, the developer has been sharing more footage of the game on IGN. We have the latest video about the game below.   Wow! Rime really does look amazing. It is reminding me of Ico more and more. I wasn’t a huge fan of Ico, but I did like the graphics. Though, Rime may look even better than Ico. I’m definitely more interested…
