Everyone’s a winner. Nintendo is a company that has never been particularly good at communication. But it is a company that is good at learning from their errors. You remember that infamous Skyward Sword demo at E3 2010, right? The one where Miyamoto walked out onstage, waggled his controller around, and couldn’t get it to […]
Utilises an ‘evolution’ system for your ship. The Arcade Archives range has given us a lot of fantastic retro titles on the Switch eShop, including a number of intriguing lesser-known games. Darwin 4078 definitely qualifies in that category, as it was a Japan-only arcade from Data East that introduced some neat ideas to the vertical […]
Keep rollin’. Super Monkey Ball Banana Mania was certainly a stand-out announcement during Nintendo’s E3 Direct, bringing a whole lot of the IP’s best content to Switch.

A Legend Reborn. Returning to The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword some ten whole years down the line from its original release, you may be expecting, as we certainly were, to be greeted by a core game that’s unavoidably, naturally, beginning to showing its age in some regards. It stands to reason, this is an […]
Though it’s ‘not a secret’ that Crytek is talking to potential buyers. Tencent is an increasingly powerful influence in media and entertainment business around the world, making investments and acquisitions in various major brands. As one of China’s most prominent corporations it also provides a gateway into that market; notably Nintendo teamed up with the […]
Smashing. In a spot of good news for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Spirit collectors, several Spirits that were previously exclusive to events are now available permanently, for everyone, in-game. As of yesterday, you’ll see the Monster Hunter Rise Magnamalo, Palamute, and Palico Spirits, as well as the Super Mario 3D World + Bowser’s Fury Fury […]
Features games never previously released in Europe.
