My Nintendo is opening the physical product flood gates again: and I think some fans are going to dig what's on offer, even if it's yet another stationary item. Yep, it's none other than the iconic invitations themselves, as you can pick up...

At this point we've had developers all over the globe muse on how much they'd like to see their characters make an appearance in Super Smash Bros., including Blizzard: who noted their picks of Tracer and Diablo. But with the addition of Ban...

Cuphead has become a phenomenon. Not only is it a fully-fledged world in its own right, but it also spurred a new generation of people to discover Fleischer Studios cartoons for the first time. While it has become colloquially known as the ...

Hunting down superbosses in JRPGs is a hobby of mine, and Super Mario RPG's Culex remains one of my all-time favorites. Brilliantly hidden within one of the cutest areas of the game, Culex was a formidable, all-new optional boss modeled aft...

When I saw that trailer for Sephiroth in Smash, my first thought was "they can't kill Mario, can they?!" Well, they didn't: no, the beloved plumber was not gored by one of the biggest bads of all time. Sephiroth probably isn't murdering any...

In a fun twist that feels straight out of Sakurai's "anything goes" playbook, if you settle your score with Sephiroth in a one-on-one showdown in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, you'll unlock him early – as early as today, even. The Fina...

If you are one of the many Smash Bros. fans who cannot wait to see Final Fantasy VII antagonist Sephiroth in action, then your wait is almost over. Nintendo has announced that the gameplay breakdown for the One-Winged Angel will be released...

We're at the point where I need to start writing 2021. 2021. 2021. 2020 is behind us! And I will for sure write "2020" at some point in January. Best to start practicing now. In 2021 (nailed it) there are more amiibo coming. Can you believe...

Yesterday, Nintendo and Sakurai shocked the world with their Sephiroth in Smash Ultimate reveal. That Mario "murder" sequence was just the best! When I saw it for the first time (yes I watched this trailer more than once) my mouth was agape...

In retrospect, maybe we should've seen this coming. We overthought it. Why put [literally any other video game character] in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate when you can just invite Sephiroth to the party? Nintendo is sticking with a "December ...

Smash Ultimate is still riding quite high, with weekly events, random online tournaments, and new characters. Steve from Minecraft was a huge reveal (and I think the salt dust has settled a bit now), and reinforced the fact that y...

Just look at this poster. I mean, really look at it. What might seem like an innocent ad for an upcoming Super Smash Bros. Ultimate event is a tad more insidious the more you stare at it. All of them are completely possessed, eating meat pr...

Masahiro Sakurai cannot be stopped: except by one thing, apparently! While it was already pretty insane to hear that every level in Smash Ultimate was tweaked to support Steve's entrance into the arena, a new Famitsu column digs deeper...

I kinda still can't believe it? Minecraft x Super Smash Bros. But it happened! For years folks have speculated that one of the biggest games on the planet is a no-brainer for an appearance in Smash, exacerbated by the fact that Microso...

Masahiro Sakurai is a madman when it comes to detail. The extended look at Minecraft's Steve in Smash Ultimate is insane, especially the bit where Sakurai explains that every level had to be retooled to work with the character. Na...

Although we generally assumed it to be so, it's nice to have confirmation that Nintendo will deploy Super Smash Bros. Ultimate version 9.0.0 on the same day that Minecraft's Steve and Alex are entering the fray. Revealed via a tweet, t...

Saturday's "Steve & Alex" presentation on the next DLC fighter for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate certainly had a lot of interesting moments in it. I personally think the way Sakurai incorporated the Minecraft bunch into the game ...

As part of this morning's Super Smash Bros. Ultimate presentation, producer Masahiro Sakurai revealed the next incoming run of Mii Fighter costumes, which will arrive in the Switch brawler on October 13.The new selection of fun cosplay outf...

Nintendo has announced that the next DLC character for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Steve from Minecraft, will be available to purchase on October 13. Smash fans can pick up Steve as part of the $30 Fighter's Pass or can pick him up individu...

Yesterday, Nintendo revealed that Minecraft avatar Steve will be the next DLC character joining the star-studded roster of Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. While the news may have come as a surprise to some fans of the uber-popular crossover fig...

Today during the dramatic Super Smash Bros. Ultimate character presentation, Minecraft's Steve and Alex were presented as the next DLC fighters. They'll be accompanied by the classic DLC suite: a new level and music (seven tracks) for ...

[Update: It's Steve/Alex from Minecraft!] Thanks random retail advertisement! You were right. As fans speculated, a retailer display that showcased the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Fighter's Pass had an interesting proviso: it would be c...

Oh yeah! Smash Ultimate still has five DLC characters to welcome at some point! In the fervor of the next generation it was easy to forget about this particular development, but Min Min has been marinating for a bit in Ultimate, and no...

I've been a fan of Super Smash Bros. since the original Nintendo 64 release way back in 1999. Ever since then I've wavered in and out of being obsessed with the game to dropping it completely at times (thank you tripping in Brawl). But as ...

So Super Smash Bros. Ultimate is pretty great, and it's somehow still getting content and has remained relevant (checks calendar)...nearly two years after launch. That's pretty great! But you know what's not great? Its netcode and onli...
