This latest update includes NES and Game Boy titles, with a total of four more games added to the service today. On the NES, there’s Ninja Gaiden II: The Dark Sword…
Tune in next week. It’s taken some time to get to this point, but Nintendo finally seems to be getting underway with its Metroid Prime 4: Beyond marketing campaign. So far, we’ve got commercials and in-store demos, and now Nintendo’s Canadian branch has announced it will be hosting a special event next week on 3rd…
So long, dear SBLJ. Super Mario 64 might be one of the most popular speedrun games of all time, and it’s still absolutely huge. You’d think runners would know absolutely everything about this almost-30-year-old game, but recently, a brand new trick was discovered that will potentially change the nature of speedruns, particularly the 1 Star…
Achievement Unlocked: Wait, wrong console. We originally published this review in June 2024 with a note that we’d flag if the game ever came to Switch. Well, it did! Published by Ogre Pixel, Glory Hunters lands on Switch today with various extras, including artwork and sketches, a markable world map, and a live performance soundtrack….

Nintendo surprised us all back in the September Direct with the announcement of Super Mario Galaxy + Super Mario Galaxy 2 — our first chance to play the latter on modern hardware in 15 years. What was perhaps even more surprising was the reveal of Rosalina’s Storybook, a hardback edition of the…
Gloom & Tomb. As a person who grew up on the original Tomb Raider games back on the PS1, I eagerly anticipated the ‘new era’ of Lara Croft promised by publisher Square Enix and developer Crystal Dynamics for the 2013 reboot. Seemingly inspired by the success of the Uncharted franchise (which itself was inspired by…
Happy Thanksgiving from Zelda and co.! Just three weeks after its release, Nintendo is already bringing more goodies to Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment later this week in the form of a free update. Available on 27th November 2025, the update will add new weapons, a brand new Sync Strike for Zelda and fan-favourite Korok…
Most excellent. The Need for Speed video game franchise, much like those movies with Vin Diesel in them (you know, the car ones), well…there’s a lot of them. In fact, there are over 20 Need For Speed games as things currently stand, and some of them are even good! Yep, I’d go so far as…
