Nintendo isn't quite at the top of the current-gen hardware pile yet (Sony's head start has allowed them to reach nearly 90 million PS4s sold, close to the Wii's lifetime of 101.6 million), but they're getting there quickly. Just this morni...

Square Enix spent a lot of time and money on Kingdom Hearts III, so you better get ready for the huge marketing push from, well, now, until its late January launch. Sony has just announced that they will be hosting a special edition PS4 Pro...

It's the second week of December and this is one of the busiest times online for holiday shopping - or at least, that's how some retailers infer it with their "Green Monday" marketing moniker earlier this week. Now that we're within strikin...

So Nintendo has been wishy-washy overall with the whole NES and SNES Classic situation, particularly in regards to the former close to launch. Originally they said they were printing more, then didn't, then acquiesced in 2017 and discontinu...

Remember those fundraiser catalogs from elementary school, the ones where kids sell a ton of shit door-to-door with grand hopes of earning some overpriced plastic trinket? Razer just launched a new program that's ostensibly the same thing -...

Whenever a new shmup arrives on PC or Switch, you typically hear people clamoring for "TATE mode." In short this phrase basically translates to "vertical" support, originating with the Japanese word for the orientation. Not just in the sens...

Amid all of the concerns with the actual emulation of the PlayStation Classic, the selection of 20 games has been scrutinized into dust. While there are many actual "classics" on there (and overlooked games that deserve a second life like J...

It was around the PlayStation era that I stopped choosing sides and just embraced gaming as a whole. Although Nintendo and Sega lit up my life during tough times with some really amazing experiences, Sony swooped in and offered me some...

It's Monday morning and you know what that means: Cyber Monday deals. For those looking to scoop up a PS4, Xbox One, or Switch console, there are quite a few deals available as of this morning. In fact, some of them are significantly better...

I don't know what's going on with the Neo Geo Mini. Shortly after I got my hands on one, SNK announced that an upgraded Holiday version of the hardware would be going up for pre-order in the coming days. That's not a good sign. I have to gu...

There have been rumors flying around for a new Nintendo Switch model in the next few years and now Nintendo themselves have started the possible prep-work. Live on their official YouTube channel right now is a "how to prepare a Nintendo Swi...

I don't remember exactly what compelled me to rush out and buy Pokémon Red before the craze began, but I vividly recall the day I went to Toys"R"Us after school and picked it up. I got to Mt. Moon in one sitting and promptl...

Nintendo has made a point of telling us, for the past year, that the 3DS is still going to be a thing until the Switch is a "multiple device per household" product. Let us count the ways: here, here, here and here (you're here right no...

Several weeks ago I noticed that a whopping 36 indie releases were let loose upon the Nintendo Switch eShop at once. As in, 36 games, not even including big ticket digital projects, were plopped onto the singular Switch eShop. That's...over...

I've been pouring drinks out for the Wii U for a few years now. I just love that little system that could[n't] so much and still have so many good times with it that I can't help myself. I'll be here until the very last vestige of the Wii U...

Pete Hines had quite a bit to share about Bethesda as a whole at PAX Australia this past week, but he took a lot of time to address Nintendo and their partnership during their panel. In addition to the news we already reported on (ESO and F...
