REPO’s dev team loves its players and modders, but it’s kindly asking everyone to optimize their mods so they don’t fry the servers. The REPO devs answered some questions from players in a Q&A video posted on Saturday, including one question about semiwork’s “stance on mods.” Their response was positive, but with one small ask…
The month of April has turned out to be a flashpoint for the isometric ARPG community. It’s packed with updates: Path of Exile 2, Last Epoch, Diablo 4, and No Rest for the Wicked all have big new shinies out this month, and while it’s natural to compare them, brawling over which is better obscures…
Forever with you; never with us. True love lasts forever – and so do some games. Tokimeki Memorial: Forever with You, the legendary dating sim from 1995, is hooking up with Switch next month to celebrate 30 years on the scene. Immaculately presented but bewilderingly complex, TokiMemo is a foundational piece of video game history…
Deep sea DIY. Australian developer Winterwire Games has revealed that its deep sea puzzle platformer Power Sink will be launching on the Nintendo Switch on 22nd May 2025 for $14.99 USD / $22.95 AUD / £12.79 / €14,79. We must admit that when we first caught the trailer above, we immediately thought it looked like…
Admit it, we all have an MMO of questionable pedigree that we could happily sink dozens more hours into. Unfortunately for me, mine was Defiance. Yep, the one that ran alongside the moderately popular sci-fi (sorry, SyFy) TV show. Defunct twice over as both a retail game and the F2P relaunch Defiance 2050, it’s now…
Issue #23 – April 2025. Here we are, everyone. We’re living in a post-Switch 2 release-date reveal world! And it’s…oof, it’s a lot! Welcome back to the Nintendo Life Mailbox, our monthly delve into correspondences of you lovely lot. Got something you want to get off your chest? We’re ready and waiting to read about…
There is something about the Lunar series—a classic JRPG duology by Game Arts, first released for Sega CD—that makes them an endless wellspring of nostalgia. Despite being archetypical fantasy adventures (or perhaps because of it), many ‘90s kids have been looking forward to the Lunar Remastered Collection, which landed on Steam and consoles this week….
Pik your winner. Hello everyone – welcome to another edition of Box Art Brawl! Last time, we looked at Survival Kids for the Game Boy Color in celebration of the new Switch 2 release from publisher Konami. In the end, although North America’s variant is certainly nice enough, Europe and Japan won the day confidently…
Blood Typers was one of my favourite indie picks of last month. A clever fusion of classic Resident Evil and The Typing Of The Dead with a little bit of proximity chat co-op chaos for spice. But much as I liked it, something was missing—an ending. Despite not carrying any early access labelling, the game…
Super together! Nintendo has gone all out for its first Western Switch 2 commercial, bringing back actor Paul Rudd to showcase the console’s new GameChat functionality. Wait… bringing back, you say? Yes, for those who grew up in the SNES days, you might remember Paul Rudd starred in a similar 1991 commercial for Nintendo’s successor…
