EVO 2015 was hype – and the Smash Bros. scene was huge this year! Nintendo sponsored the event and the top players all fought for glory. Please enjoy our favorite clips and reactions!

Nintendo seems to be setting a pretty good pace for mobile development. It will be really nice to have these games augmenting the Wii U and 3DS release schedule!

We have learned the DeNA and Nintendo are collaborating on FIVE mobile games, each of a different genre. It’s time to theorize and put our wish-lists out there!

Star Fox Zero Impressions

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

Star Fox is an odd, experimental series with a lot of Nintendo charm and fun gameplay. Zero will be a very interesting departure for the series in many ways. Can’t wait to get our hands on it!

Star Fox hogged the spotlight at Nintendo’s E3 2015 showing, and it pleased a lot of fans. How is this title shaping up to the previous Star Fox games, and other current Wii U offerings?

Smash Bros: Ryu, Roy, Lucas, and more!

Posted on by — No Comments ↓

Ah, Smash Bros. You are already one of the best games on Wii U and 3DS, yet you continue to delight with some great Downloadable Content. Paying extra for more characters like Lucas isn’t our favorite thing in the world, but Ryu… Oh boy. Down to forward punch. Yeah.

Smash Bros. hit it out of the park at E3 2015 with all kinds of DLC from characters to stages, to costumes… available that day! We’ve been playing with the new content and have a lot to say about Nintendo’s Smash presentation and continued DLC support.
