Hotel Mario. Holidays are great and all, but when you have to go back to the hotel at the end of the day, it’s a bit of a bummer to not be able to boot up a nice game of Mario Party Superstars on the bedroom TV — unless you’ve brought your Nintendo Switch dock […]
Hello! I am Göksan, founder of NAISU, and the main developer In Mokoko X, we want to resurrect the specific arcade genre while adding a modern touch.

“I feel like I hit a glass ceiling where my input no longer mattered”. Earlier this week it emerged that Nintendo of America and recruitment company Aston Carter have been named in a workers’ rights complaint; the complaint alleges actions such as ‘discharge’ from employment and ‘coercive statements’. Nintendo of America issued a response saying […]
Now THAT is history. Last Summer Nintendo announced plans for a Nintendo Gallery, a museum of sorts that will “share Nintendo’s product development history and philosophy with the public”.

To coincide with the World Cup. Football is finally coming home! Tower Studios and Kiss Publishing will be releasing Sociable Soccer on Switch — and other consoles — in November of this year. That might seem like a pretty long wait for a game that first appeared playable on Switch way back in 2017, but […]
The oui sports and the non sports. Here’s a fun little exercise: When you think of Wii Sports, which sport do you think of first? For me, it’s Bowling. I got really good at lining up the ball just right to always get a strike, which is a far cry from my real-life bowling ability […]
