Seeing My Nintendo become relevant again is really confusing. I know, it took me a while to adjust too. For years it was a graveyard for Platinum Points to eternally rest, with rewards for legacy systems and wallpaper exchanges. But now, th...

Nintendo's mobile support has been rather disappointing so far. After Super Mario Run didn't seemingly hit insane internal metrics, their mobile partners turned to gacha and microtransactions. Oh, and subscription services on top of mi...

30 hours into Spelunky 2, I've beaten the game exactly once – and come close countless other times. While much of that time was admittedly spent exploring potential branching routes and figuring out what's up with certain elusive NPCs...

In case you missed it, Nintendo unveiled a ton of Mario stuff yesterday. But buried inside all of the new announcements was an offer for a free pin set in the US. There are provisos of course, but here's how to get it.

There is very little about Destroy All Humans that is confusing. This is a game where the objectives are immediately clear, usually to destroy the humans in a certain way. Blow up a car, kill soldiers with rockets -- that sort of stuff. You...
