“I don’t think they ever really liked DK 64 that much”. If you cast your mind back to 2023 and the release of The Super Mario Bros. Movie, you may recall that composer extraordinaire Grant Kirkhope was rightfully bemused upon finding out that he didn’t get a credit at the end of the film, despite…
Déjà vu. One of the most frustrating aspects of the Nintendo Switch was when third-party publishers would give a release date for games, and then say something along the lines of “and coming soon on Switch!”… Yeah, cool, very specific, thank you. We can’t say for sure whether that’s happening again, but Gearbox Software’s Randy…
Playing favourites. We’re on the cusp of a new console generation and naturally thoughts are turning to games we know are coming and games we know must be coming. News flash: Nintendo is making another one of those Mario games. They seem to go down well? So far, only Mario Kart and Donkey Kong have…
A Steam success. Manor Lords publisher Hooded Horse and developer Eremite Games have today announced that the award-winning dark fantasy roguelike city builder (is that enough genre terms for ya?) Against the Storm will be making the jump to Switch on 26th June. This one launched on Steam in late 2023 and has since gone…
Get a good look? Mario Kart World will introduce a boatload of new features when it drops on 5th June 2025 as a Switch 2 launch game. We’ve got a new open-world environment, courses that effectively join together in the Grand Prix, snacks that grant characters with new costumes, and much more. Small, less obvious…
Marinara sauce, that is. Brace Yourself Games’ long-awaited follow-up to Crypt of the NecroDancer, Rift of the NecroDancer, was every bit as cheesy as you would hope to see from a Guitar Hero-style rhythm puzzle adventure game (rolls off the tongue, eh?), and its upcoming DLC is going to get things even cheesier. The beloved…
No, not that one. Donkey Kong Bananza looks as if it could be filled with all sorts of DK (and Mario) lore from across the decades, and now a new video on the Nintendo Today! mobile app may have teased another detail. New footage showing off DK’s various facial animations is backed by what appears…
Here are the games readers are most excited about. The famous Japanese video game outlet Famitsu regularly releases a list of its readership’s “most wanted” games, and in the latest April update, it’s added Nintendo Switch 2 exclusives for the first time based on the latest round of votes. In the top 30 “most wanted”…
No docking. The Switch 2 is getting a new dock and if you have been wondering whether you’ll be able to use your original Switch with it, apparently not. According to a listing on Nintendo’s Japanese website (via Nintendo Everything), the original Switch systems seemingly can’t be used with the Switch 2 docking station. This…
Available for $249.99. As we’ve discovered in recent weeks, multiple third-party Switch 2 games will be sold as “Game-Key Cards”. Nintendo explains on its website how these cards are “different” from regular physical game cards as they don’t contain the full game and act as a ‘key’ to download the title onto your system via…
