Following last month’s release on Wii U, The Game Bakers’ SQUIDS franchise is now on Nintendo 3DS in SQUIDS Odyssey, a tactical RPG available for download in the Nintendo eShop. Designed specifically for handheld devices, SQUIDS Odyssey has casual combat with quick levels that can easily be enjoyed on the go, alongside an epic adventure […]
Repetitive Busy Work – Torus Games deserves some credit for putting a different spin on this licensed product but even the new open world gameplay cannot save this unpolished and unrefined rush job of a gaming disaster. How To Train Your Dragon 2 is like a very weak version of Diddy Kong Racing where the […]
Expansion Pack – Last fall QubicGames released AiRace Speed to the 3DS eShop, a sequel to a couple of DSiWare racers. With its low price point, solid use of stereoscopic 3D, and highly competitive leaderboards, this futuristic racer stood as a sleeper hit for Nintendo’s downloadable service. Now, about nice months later, QubicGames has released […]
Unlike Sony and Microsoft, Nintendo has had some extra time with their new gen system. In typical Nintendo fashion, they killed it with 1st party announcements but 3rd party support remains low. However, a higher emphasis on smaller indie games was definitely made apparent and Nintendo is also betting heavily on the NFC Amiibo figures. […]
Repeating Kirby – Nintendo is kicking off E3 week with new Club Nintendo games. June is a little disappointing as Kirby’s Adventure is a repeat from last month and Electroplankton is an app instead of a game. Reminder, if you have been hoarding coins for the last couple of years they could be expiring at […]
Closing out the month of Mega May, Megaman Xtreme 2, basically a de-make of the SNES Megaman X2, is now on sale via the 3DS eShop Virtual Console for $4.99. Players play as both X and Zero in this surprisingly good GBC game. As a side note, Pushmo is on sale for $4.69 and Crashmo […]
One Small Episode for Man. One Giant Leap for Renegade Kid. – Hero indie developer Renegade Kid has made a name for themselves over the last several years by releasing memorable titles such as Dementium, Moon, Mutant Mudds, and Bomb Monkey. Moon, an impressive-for-its-time technical FPS marvel on the original DS, is now being revisited […]
Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy – With a gentle tone and a slower paced platforming experience, Yoshi’s New Island might harken back to the original SNES adventure but uninspired level design, a forgettable soundtrack, and tedious motion control shortchange this cult following favorite. Just like the original SNES game, a bundle of different colored Yoshis are […]
Preparing for Megaman’s debut in the upcoming Smash Bros games, Nintendo and Capcom will be releasing one classic Megaman game on the 3DS eShop each week for the entire month of May. Megaman Xtreme, a re-making of the original Megaman X on SNES, has already kicked off this promotion. Megaman Xtreme 5-1-14 Megaman II 5-8-14 […]
