Don’t think twice, it’s all right. It’s time to say goodbye. Well, not really.

As part of this, there’ll be all sorts of racing-inspired partnerships and the latest one is now live. Sonic has teamed up with Gameloft’s free-to-play racer Asphalt Legends…
Encore – MK Tour, Live: Home Circuit, and more. Last week, we wrapped up our overview of all the main Mario Karts ahead of Mario Kart World‘s launch next week(!). However, outside of those occasionally numbered mainline karters, there’s another small selection of games tied to the series, directly or otherwise. So, to finish up…
So long, Switch 1. It’s finally upon us, the last weekend before Switch 2. We have one last chance to throw our backlogs a concerned look before a line-up of launch games gets added to the pile, so let’s go out with one last hurrah, shall we? You’d think that this week would have been…
