A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Hey-HoHum Making its first jump from 3D to 2D, Hey! Pikmin is a simplified version of the original console titles. While I felt compelled enough to finish the quest, this sidescrolling take on Nintendo’s real time strategy sim isn’t very fulfilling. Like the previous Pikmin titles, Captain Olimar has crash landed on an alien world […]

Crocheting Your Heart – With adorable visuals and top notch level design, Yoshi’s Woolly World is not only one of the best Yoshi games ever made, it also easily stands as one of the best games on Wii U. Making his debut in Super Mario World over 25 years ago, Yoshi has been around for […]
