A PASSION FOR ALL THINGS GAMES
Pulling into Port – The Nintendo 3DS eShop version of Squids Odyssey is a port of the Wii U version containing all the same content but with a couple differences involving the smaller screen. Similar to the Wii U Gamepad controls, the 3DS touch screen with the stylus or Circlepad can be used for all […]
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 […]
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 […]
This week me and Gillman are enjoying the newest addition to the Mario Kart Franchise. Sit back and watch as Gillman does terribly at all things and battles off some kind of flu/fever thing. The fact that he is making coherent sentences should impress everyone that is out there. Watch live video from Varms on […]
Stay Ahead of the Competition – The wait is finally over as the newest incarnation of the beloved Mario Kart series is now available on Wii U. Bundled as a system seller, competition is bound to be fierce over the coming months and even years as Nintendo only makes one Mario Kart title per console […]
Strategic Flick’Em Up – Mixing the flicking catapult and level progression gameplay of Angry Birds with the strategy of billiards, Squids Odyssey has extended its mobile roots to the Wii U with a 3DS port set to be released soon. It is a simple concept that translates to some clever and entertaining gameplay but is […]
Nintendo has just announced a Gamecube controller adapter for the Wii U. No really, we are not making this up. Smash Bros fans will rejoice as using the Gamecube controller is arguable one of the best control schemes around. Details are scarce but it will support up to four GC controllers. Pricing has not yet […]
Cat Scratch Fever – With a high challenge, lack of tutorial and constant requirement for perfect playthroughs, Scram Kitty and His Buddy on Rails is not for everybody. You know you are in for something special when it takes hours of trial-and-error just to complete the first few opening “learning” stages of this deceptively devious […]
