Start your engines. Well folks, it looks like Nintendo is officially off the start line with its Mario Kart World marketing in Japan. The upcoming racer has just scored three new trailers, showcasing some of the new characters, courses and tricks you’ll be able to see in action from 5th June. A lot of the…
Okay… what? Just when we thought we were starting to get a grip on what would and would not be on Switch 2 cartridges, publisher Marvelous comes in with another bombshell (thanks for the heads up, @Wario64). In a recently published Q&A section regarding the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 edition of Rune Factory: Guardians of…
“I’m interested in the darkness…”. If you owned a PlayStation in the mid-’90s to early 2000s, you’ll likely be aware of PaRappa the Rapper. This wacky rhythm game from musician Masaya Matsuura sees you play as a hip-hop hound trying to win the love of his life, a humanoid flower (yes, really). It’s often considered…

Stop the Express! With the announcement that the Switch 2 requires a new type of microSD card, the microSD Express, it seems that stockists are beginning to have some issues keeping up with Nintendo fan demand. You should have known we were a frenzied bunch of gamers! Yes, as reported by the fine folks over…
Backup break up. Just when you thought the messaging around Nintendo’s ‘Switch 2 Edition’ games couldn’t get any more confusing, another discovery comes along to stir things up even further. Looking at the game’s store pages, it seems some upcoming titles won’t support the Nintendo Switch Online Cloud Save feature — or maybe they will,…

Well, sort of. Soleil’s action effort combined guns and fisticuffs into “Gun-Fu” of…
Outlaws arrives on Switch 2 later this year. Star Wars Outlaws is on the way to the Nintendo Switch 2 later this year and in case you missed it, it’s also getting some new “story pack” DLC.
