Here’s a first look. The Super Mario Galaxy Movie is arriving in cinemas this April, and as expected, there is going to be a lot of themed merchandise and toys. Following Smyths reveal of an interactive Yoshi, Jakks Pacific has now revealed its own official toy line for the upcoming release. These toys will be…
Winter roadmap reveals all. Assassin’s Creed Shadows arrived as an almost complete package on Switch 2 at the end of last year. The only content missing from this portable version was the Claws of Awaji expansion — which had landed on other systems back in September — for which Ubisoft provided a vague ‘coming later…
Have you herd the wonderfoal word of HORSE. In the magazine business, the back page is where you’d find all the weird goofs that we couldn’t fit in anywhere else. Some may call it “filler”; we prefer “a whole page to make terrible jokes that are tangentially related to the content of the mag”. We…
Meet the crew. We are getting ever closer to the release of The Super Mario Galaxy Movie on 1st April, and over the weekend, Nintendo revealed its official roster of character posters for the film’s main players. We took a look at the foe-filled Mario one last week, but an additional six posters have since…
Thanks to AI and “RAMmageddon”. The rising demand for RAM for AI data centres and the associated rising costs are having a massive effect across the tech world, and with Sony reportedly pushing back the launch of its as-yet-unannounced PS5 successor, Nintendo is considering raising the price of Switch 2 in 2026, too, according to…
Hoenned. Pokémon turns 30 on 27th February, and in honour of this momentous anniversary, we’re running a series of polls leading up to the big day, asking you to vote for your favourite Pokémon from each generation. The nine winners will then go head-to-head in a final poll at the end of the month. We’re…
The old “platform expansion”, eh? We’ve seen several ports come our way in the last eight months that would have been nothing more than a pipedream on Switch 1, and it looks like another title that got everyone talking on PS5 back in 2024 might make the jump to the new Nintendo hybrid, too. We’re…
“Our development will continue” says one defiant dev. It was back in 2024 that Nintendo really kicked its emulator takedown requests into overdrive following the removal of Yuzu and 3DS emulator Citra, and a fresh wave came late last week. As spotted by Reddit user Devile, Nintendo issued a new DMCA notice on Friday calling…
Such is the Norman way. It feels like just yesterday that Ys X: Nordics slashed its way onto the Switch to deliver another one of the series’ action-packed adventures for the ages — and, really, that’s not too far off the mark. The 10th mainline entry in NIS’ seminal RPG franchise made its way westward…
Eggcelent. There was never any doubt that the Super Mario Galaxy Movie would bring some heat in the merch department on the run-up to launch. Nintendo may have its Talking Flower primed and ready to go as a Mario Wonder Switch 2 tie-in (brand synergy, and all that), but we dare you to take one…
