Devilishly good platforming. When Demon Turf launched at the tail end of 2021, it left a positive impression on us thanks to its solid platforming gameplay, retro aesthetic, and focus on speedrunning. The game fell short of true greatness due to its less-than-stellar combat mechanics, which frankly brought the whole experience down a few pegs. […]

It’s not as glamorous as you might expect. The Legend of Zelda franchise has seen its fair share of adaptations over the years. One of the most recognisable (and one of few that is still in print to this day) is the manga adaptation of The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past. In […]
Don’t ovoid ’em! It’s Easter, and we here at Nintendo Life think that “Easter Egg” features are more overdone than an egg boiled for 20 minutes. Besides, we know about all the Easter Eggs in games already, from Chris Houlihan’s room to the secret Tingle dungeon that you can find in Skyward Sword by entering […]
Looks a bit meaty. Quite a lot of video games are violent, as we aim for headshots or pummel thugs, though Ravenous Devils still finds a way to push buttons in a different way. It’s a game that describes itself as a ‘psycho-horror cooking simulator’, and makes sure you really deal with the violence on […]

New series, new films, new games; it’s a bountiful time for fans of the final frontier. Star Trek: Picard is currently deep into its second season, with the full […]
Wii love to see it. U love to see it. Okay, we’ll stop speculating when the last Wii U game will hit us. Every time we bring it up, another one sneaks in. We love seeing this underappreciated console get some love, so we’re going to shout about any new games we spot on the […]
Mario hits the links. This review originally went live in 2008, and we’re updating and republishing it to mark the game’s arrival on Switch as part of the Nintendo Switch Online Expansion Pack. After Mario’s forays into non-platforming genres — you know, the Karting, the Picross-ing, the Dr. Mario…ing — Nintendo realised something: put Mario […]
More to squeeze and more to love. Did you know Kirby’s 30th birthday is coming up soon? The pink puffball’s 30th anniversary is on 27th April, which is when Kirby’s Dream Land first came out in Japan in 1992. He wasn’t pink here then, due to a misunderstanding and the Game Boy’s lack of colour, […]
