Yoshi’s Woolly World Review
Yoshi’s games in the past have left me mixed. On the one hand, Yoshi’s Island: Super Mario World 2 is a remarkable sequel, one that changed the core gameplay that we’ve come to expect from the series, while revealing something innovatively new in the process. On the other, there was Yoshi’s Story for Nintendo 64, and…well, it didn’t quite have the same level of qualit...[Read More]

Shantae and the Pirate’s Curse Review
She’s the original Fly Girl of In Living Color — Game Boy Color, that is. Shantae, our favorite purple-haired, gold-bangled half-genie hero first made her debut in 2002. Despite the fact that the Game Boy Advanced was released in 2001, Shantae’s debut adventured conjured a cult following.
