Sleeper builds will have a place in my home at some point, I swear it (if I keep saying it, it’ll happen, right?). There’s just something about the combined retro nostalgia of a knackered ’90s PC combined with actual modern-day gaming chops. For all who feel the same, get a load of TME Retro’s resuscitated…
So it’s finally here… We shouldn’t be surprised that Donkey Kong Bananza is stuffed full of musical references. After all, if you’re playing Mario Kart World right now, you know Nintendo is going all-in on its musical history right now (it has always, but right now, we’re eating). We heard many a classic DK track…
‘Commercial Breaks: The Race For Santa’s Software’ aired in 1984. Over 40 years ago, in 1984, the BBC ran a documentary on the UK video game industry which was notable for charting the spectacular fall of Imagine Software, creators of the infamous ‘megagames’ Bandersnatch and Psyclapse.

How are YOUR bananergy levels today? Well, well, well. We’re just fresh from taking in everything that Nintendo’s Donkey Kong Bananza Direct has shown us about the incoming Switch 2 game, and there’s quite a lot of very exciting things to discuss!

Double trouble. Nintendo has lifted the lid on a wealth of Donkey Kong Bananza news, with new and classic characters making a comeback and tons of incredible skills and collectibles to discover.

We’re pleased to introduce Climate Station, a new experience that transforms decades of climate science into an interactive story. Play Video Developed by Sony Interactive Entertainment, as part of our collaboration with the United Nations Playing for the Planet…
Excellent bait and switch. We all knew this was coming following a cheeky little leak some weeks back, but Nintendo has nw showcased the final box art for Donkey Kong Bananza, and it looks incredible. Showcasing Pauline in all her glory, we’d go so far as to say that this box art might go down…
So, Microsoft has announced it’s teaming up with—or maybe that should be sticking with—AMD for its next generation of Xbox hardware. But what does that actually mean for conventional Xbox consoles and the new trend of handhelds? Perhaps the key line from Xbox President Sarah Bond in the YouTube video announcement goes thus: “We’ve established…
For quite some time now I have been hearing rumors; scattershot whispers, in hushed tones. The Digimon Story games, they’ve been saying, are good. Subtitles like Cyber Sleuth would crop up in lists and recommendations from good friends, but I would always brush them off a bit. It’s Digimon—surely nostalgia was the driving force of…
Nothing soulless about this one. Never let it be said that Atlus is afraid of finding new ways to capitalise on its flagship Shin Megami Tensei franchise—for quite a while now, there have been significantly more spinoff ‘SMT-adjacent’ games than mainline entries.
