Featuring over sexualized female ninjas from different schools of training who would normally be super best friends forever but are destined to fight each other because that’s simply what they are supposed to do, Senran Kagura 2 Deep Crimson’s story is certainly not winning any awards but it’s just the right amount of over the top cheesy to make it entertaining.

Mario and other residents of the Mushroom Kingdom head back to the tennis court on Nov. 20 in the Mario Tennis: Ultra Smash game for the Wii U home console. And Nintendo has served up lots of new details about the game. What are they you ask? See all the awesome information on the game below.

The Legend of Zelda: Tri Force Heroes is an action-adventure game by Nintendo Entertainment Planning & Development and Grezzo for the Nintendo 3DS handheld game console.
Earlier this year, Nintendo released another iteration of the 3DS handheld game console.

Whipping forward eight years, Shantae cast a spell on DSi with Risky’s Revenge, which ...[Read More]
Also at today’s Nintendo Direct, more information on Ultimate NES Remix was given. The game will feature content from 16 of the top NES games, as well as something called “Famicom Remix Mode” which features content from the Japanese version of NES Remix with slightly different sound effects and backgrounds (I think I may have heard a Zelda villain farting in the video). There is ...[Read More]
So Abraham Lincoln and Tom Sawyer walk into a video game… That may sound like a silly joke, but it is actually the premise of Code Name: S.T.E.A.M., a turn-based strategy RPG from Intelligent Systems, a game developer best known for their work on the Fire Emblem series. The core gameplay mechanics don’t sound too dissimilar from other games in this genre but the quirky comic book art s...[Read More]
Today during their Nintendo Direct presentation, Nintendo FINALLY announced they are remaking The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask for the 3DS. Fans far and wide have been clamoring for this remake ever since The Legend of Zelda: The Ocarina of Time was rendered in 3D for the handheld system a little over three years ago.

Nothing like this has ever been done in the Pokémon series before, so like all new things that happen in the gaming world, the Internet is trying desperately to decide if they love the idea or hate it. It’s easy to see why thi...[Read More]
