Does Donkey Kong Alleviate the Need for 3D Mario?

When you think about the lifespans of a console, there are only a few things you are ever guaranteed. If we go back console generations, we know that 3D Mario games are generally a once-per-generation experience. We had Super Mario 64 on Nintendo 64, Super Mario Sunshine on Nintendo GameCube, two Super Mario Galaxy games on Wii, and a Super Mario Odyssey on Nintendo Switch. With Donkey Kong Bananza getting wonderful scores – including a 10/10 from us – how…

Mario Party Jamboree + Jamboree TV Nintendo Switch 2 Edition Review

Mario Party Jamboree is a staple around my house, as most Mario Party games have been. Good or bad, our family always finds time to sit back and enjoy some Mario Party shenanigans, even if those games end in tears for someone. With a host of new features packed into the Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo is pushing an update for this title titled Jamboree TV, providing games that use mouse controls, and experiences that use the Nintendo Switch 2 camera.…

New Nintendo Switch 2 Pokémon Bundle Coming

With the launch of Pokémon Legends: Z-A this October, Nintendo has announced a brand new Nintendo Switch 2 bundle just in time for the holidays. While the console itself isn’t anything special, like with the Mario Kart World bundle, it provides those entering the Nintendo Switch 2 ecosystem a great way to get a system and a game at a much more affordable choice. I know that having multiple console bundles is probably a nightmare for both Nintendo and retailers,…

The Wandering Village First Impressions

I really do enjoy a simulation / tycoon style game, so when it was announced that Wandering Village would migrate off of steam and release on the Nintendo Switch, I was pretty excited. Disappointingly, I do wish that the game supported Nintendo’s mouse controls on Nintendo Switch 2, but I’m happy to say that regardless of this, the game does control pretty well. Overall, my first few hours with The Wandering Village have been very positive. There is definitely a…

A New Animal Crossing Needs to Come Now, Not Later

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…

More Thoughts From Me: Back to Ivalice

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…

Donkey Kong Bananza Review

Donkey Kong 64 was one of my favorite games of all time, and unsurprisingly I think my love for 3D Donkey Kong made me somewhat loathe 2D Donkey Kong games. It could be that I was terrible at them, but it also meant that each time a 2D Donkey Kong was released, I knew another 3D entry was even further in the future. Ideally, Nintendo would have remastered Donkey Kong 64 a few years ago or released it on Switch…
