Creating with Limitations – An Interview with Ty Anderson of Links Awakening 64
A few weeks back, I was sitting at home doing what I do best at the hands of my Playstation 4, when all of a sudden I get a message from my buddy Erik. Now, to preface this, Erik is the biggest Legend of Zelda fan I know, introducing me to the franchise as a tot when he brought over his copy of Link to the Past, complete with a big strategy guide filled with hints, secrets, and lore. It was a grea...[Read More]
Pirate Pop Plus Review
Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery – or so I’ve heard. That might explain why 13AM Games and Dadako’s latest effort, Pirate Pop Plus, is a variation of Capcom’s classic Buster Bros., which recently came back to life as DotEmu’s Pang Adventures, but with a high-definition twist.

Nintendo Switch: Our 8 Top Speculation Picks For Possible Games On The New Console
We’ve gotten a very good glance at long-awaited upcoming system from Nintendo, the Nintendo Switch.

Nintendo Switch – Need it Like Bacon Needs Eggs
What it was a catchy line in the song? Anyways what a reveal! Our guesses that the console is indeed a portable hybrid were correct. The Nintendo NX has been renamed to the aptly branded Nintendo Switch, which is a tablet-like device that has two controllers that slide on either side while its turned horizontally.

Official List of Nintendo Switch Third Party Devs So Far
Minutes after the awesome reveal of the Nintendo Switch, Nintendo sent out a list of companies who are supporting the new portable/console hybrid.

Nintendo NX Glimpse Happening Tomorrow
THIS IS NOT A RUMOR. Nintendo themselves have just shared via Twitter and through an official press release that the Nintendo NX will be revealed tomorrow, at least in some fashion. This is the first major bit of news about Nintendo’s ever-important new console since The Pokemon Company confirmed they were going to make games for it. In fact, I was skeptical the console would even reach its ...[Read More]
Twitch Plays Pokemon is Relevant Again with Pokemon Prism
Remember the days when thousands upon thousands of people would all shout out inputs on Twitch, which were then translated into control inputs for classic Pokemon Games? I was there during some of the greatest moments of the channel, from Red’s slow decent into madness at the hands of the Helix Fossil to the birth of Lazor Gator, destroyer of Suicune. It was an exciting time for Twitch, as f...[Read More]
Luigi Causes Chaos and Creates New 2DS
There are two types of people in this world. The first likes their Nintendo handhelds to have a shell and 3D capabilities.

Well thanks to a certain green hatted mustachioed brother, the latter, the Nintendo 2DS, is now a little bit more colorful.

RetroUSB’s new NES Console Available for Preorder
A few months back I reported on the Mini NES, quite possibly one of the few times we’ll see Nintendo take a stab at the retro gaming crowd outside of the E-Shop. Of course, this comes after there have been many consoles capable of playing NES carts, which is strange due to the Mini NES’ lack of ability to do so. There are probably at least fifteen different clone consoles that do NES c...[Read More]
Nintendo Power Archive Axed by Nintendo
Totally saw this coming. After just under a couple weeks the valuable history on display on Archive.org of Nintendo Power has been removed. The important detail to note is that Nintendo Power was discontinued in 2012. Nintendo Power was, of course, a magazine that provided details of games coming out, accessories to look out for, and interviews with some of the dominant forces in Nintendo. To gami...[Read More]
