Although they tried to move over assets from the 3DS iterations of Pokemon, a Famitsu interview confirms that they had to start over from scratch. Amid errant concerns from fans that Game Freak just re-used 3DS assets, the developer dispels...

The Pokemon Company just dropped a Japanese trailer for Pokemon Sword & Shield, and it's basically an apology tour for the lack of a National Pokedex, if almost to say: "look at all of the classic Pokemon that are coming back!" Whi...

Shakedown: Hawaii is doing a lot of things, as an indie, that big games aren't. First off it got a Vita release this year as a new game in 2019, which pretty much everyone has abandoned beyond Limited Run Games (which mostly hosts ports), w...

And we're still back to normal after the E3 lull, with the third week in a row with a ton of eShop games and some big releases. The king this week is easily Dragon Quest Builders 2, which is releasing day-and-date with the other editions in...

Nintendo is really sticking to its guns. At E3 less than a month ago, Nintendo maintained that the 3DS is a platform it'd keep supporting, citing a continued consumer demand as the reason it's not yet dead. With this morning's reveal of the...

It's a unique week for the Nintendo Download list, as the publisher has released this coming week's offerings a day earlier due to the July 4 holiday falling on the usual Thursday cycle. As such it's a smaller spread, with Strange Thin...

The insanely named Layton's Mystery Journey: Katrielle and the Millionaires' Conspiracy - Deluxe Edition will be heading west this year (as was rumored in April). Coming to Switch on November 8, 2019, this continuation of the incredible Pro...

It's a big week for Nintendo with another first party game arriving on the Switch in Super Mario Maker 2. Also on the Switch eShop you'll find Another Sight, Arcade Archives Wild Western, Attack of the Toy Tanks, Baobabs Mausoleum Ep 2, Bit...

I've been following the 3DS' path for the last two years fairly closely, from vague executive commentary to each and every game that's released on all Nintendo platforms for the past six years or so. Although Nintendo maintains that it's fi...

After holding back a bit for the past few weeks outside of Cadence of Hyrule, the eShop is ready to explode this week. We're getting to huge releases in the form of Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled tomorrow and Bloodstained: Ritual ...

It what is becoming something of an annual tradition, Sega is holding a short sale on video games featuring their famous mascot, Sonic the Hedgehog. The sale - which is currently only live in North America - is being held to celebrate Sonic...

So the 3DS is currently getting passed over at Nintendo with a focus on both the Switch and mobile arena. Nintendo has moved over pretty much all of their efforts to the latter platforms, and had nothing to announce, 3DS-wise, at E3 this ye...

E3 is nearly over, and right on cue is our "surprise" release: Cadence of Hyrule: Crypt of the NecroDancer Featuring the Legend of Zelda, which is probably the last time I'm going to type out that full title. It's definitely the favorite th...

Do you hear that? It's the calming winds of pre-E3. That explains why the eShop is taking it easy this week, as it's absolutely going to be jam-packed next week with surprise reveals and the like. Before that happens, Slay the Spire le...

It's the end of the road. After covering what seems like 700 individual previews, this is probably the last time I will write about a trailer for Atlus' Nintendo 3DS release Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth. It's been a ride.The launch trai...

We're officially in Persona 5 overdrive mode. While every Persona game runs the risk of being overexposed, the people over at Atlus are really looking out for the Phantom Thieves, as they've already gotten their rhythm spinoff, and are set ...

Although it's not technically this week, the prized eShop release is indubitably Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth on June 4. What's the big deal? Well not only is it basically a new Persona game (mixed with Etrian Odyssey for...

What if there was one cloud-based service to bridge all of your Pokémon games together? There is – well, there's going to be! – and it's called Pokémon Home. It's planned for iOS, Android, and Switch in 2020 with s...

Today is another mostly indie-filled day for the eShop as we prepare for E3. There's some ports sprinkled in for good measure! The big one this week is Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization which originally came out in 2016 as the fourth ent...

Shakedown: Hawaii arrived on PC, PS4, Vita, and Switch earlier this month, and people really seem to be taking to it. As part of developer Vblank's efforts to keep the game updated and fresh (similar to how they handled Retro City Rampage),...

We're just a few weeks away from the western launch of handheld JRPG sequel Persona Q2: New Cinema Labyrinth. In order to get your Nintendo 3DS in gear for the arrival of The Phantom Thieves, Atlus has released a free theme which you can do...

Capcom is slapping the bass on the Nintendo eShop this week with three big re-releases: Resident Evil, Resident Evil 0, and Resident Evil 4. Don't get too excited: these are $30 each, far pricier than other consoles. Other Switch drops incl...

We're in a resplendent era of one-person studios and I couldn't be happier that those kinds of games are getting attention. There's Eric Barone of Stardew Valley fame, Celeste's Matt Thorson, Bertil Hörberg, and of cours...

It's port week for the Nintendo Switch! The eShop is getting Saints Row: The Third, Arcade Archives Terra Force, Ascendance, Blazing Beaks, Car Trader, Dragon Pinball, Dragon Snakes, Evil Defenders, For the King, Frane: Dragon's Odyssey, Lo...

Hello darkness my old friend! I can't stop coming back to the 3DS. Ever since I unwrapped my first Game Boy I've been a portable person (in addition to a PC and console person), and I can't shake them. The 3DS is one of my most played syste...
