It has been around a few months now since Nintendo World Championships: NES Edition officially released exclusively on the Nintendo Switch. Since then, there has been only one single update for the game, and that was around the time the game had launched. Otherwise, Nintendo‘s post-launch support for the game has been very quiet. Well,

Captured on Nintendo Switch (Docked) A totally original pixel art fighting game in 2024 is certainly a welcome surprise. What’s more of a surprise, though, is discovering that Mark Minkyu Chung touts himself as a solo game developer. Known by his developer handle Rarebreed, we hopped to Blazing Strike’s credits roll to corroborate the seemingly

Believe it or not, it has now been 3 years since Nintendo added the Expansion Pack to Nintendo Switch Online‘s subscription service. The Expansion Pack comes with the Nintendo 64, Game Boy Advance and SEGA Genesis retro libraries. So, to celebrate, Nintendo acknowledged the occasion with a new newsletter email. What may make some of

Wario Land-inspired action-platformer Antonblast has been delayed a month due to its developer, Summitsphere, being based in the southeastern United States, where Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton have left hundreds dead and millions without electricity.

It has been over 7 years now since Fortnite released, and 6 years since it had been officially ported over to the Nintendo Switch. Since then, it has quickly become one of the very few live-service games to see massive success. The game is so big that it even has 3 games that were released

Captured on Nintendo Switch (Docked) Modern survival horror games looking to recapture the aesthetics and essence of classic titles from the ‘90s often make one fatal mistake. You see, when fans who were around to play Resident Evil and Alone in the Dark: A New Nightmare on the PS1 look back, they do so with

For many years now, video games have always been at risk of being leaked online, especially when the game is getting very close to releasing. Not only does this happen to Nintendo with their first-party games, but third-party video gaming companies have also had to deal with games leaking before they are slated to release.

Captured on Nintendo Switch (Docked) Europa is a puzzle-platformer that’s light on puzzles and platforming, set on (and named after) the moon of Jupiter. This indie title from Novadust Entertainment and Future Friends Games combines pretty expanses of green with futuristic elements. Its playthrough and story aim to both rouse your inner child and give

You may recall that, a week ago, Nintendo had announced that F-ZERO Climax and F-Zero GP Legend would be arriving on Nintendo Switch Online + Expansion Pack on October 11th. As usual, the date was actually referring to Japan’s time zone, so October 11th in Japan would be late on October 10th or in the

On paper, this platforming adventure is as charming as they come. There’s an

The Shinobi game series will be getting a live-action movie from SEGA and Universal Pictures, with Sam Hargrave (Extraction) as director and Ken Kobayashi (Sunny, Hit Monkey) handling the screenplay. Producing the film will be Marc Platt and Adam Siegel of Marc Platt Productions, Dmitri M. Johnson of Story Kitchen, and SEGA’s Toru Nakahara. Mike

Here we all are, refreshing our feeds and inboxes every hour thinking that maybe, just maybe, it’s the day our favourite purveyor of video games lifts the lid on the mythical ‘Switch 2’… and then this. You want new hardware, do ya? Sure, here’s your new hardware, pal.

It may have been almost 6 years since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate officially released on the Nintendo Switch, but the game is still receiving a little bit of support from Nintendo. There were a handful of new Spirit Events that occurred in-game earlier this year. Around that same time, the final Smash amiibo, Sora, was

Yeah, we do too (unfortunately), but today, we’ve learnt a little more about the game, making it appear somewhat more attractive: namely, there will be no gacha or pay-to-win mechanics (thanks, VGC).

Nintendo hasn’t really been doing much with the Switch’s firmware lately. The last few updates, including the version 17.0.0 and 18.0.0 ones, contained very little new additions. In fact, around a third of the Nintendo Switch updates that have been released in the past 12 months have been “rebootless” updates. Well, Nintendo has released a
