“Unleash your inner Kong”. If a day of previews and impressions aren’t enough Donkey Kong Bananza for you, how about a commercial? It’s time to unleash your inner Kong. Nintendo has dropped a brand new ad for the upcoming 3D platformer, incorporating the games central premises of music and smashing things up. You won’t be…
Wanzer more unto the breach. Every time I pick up the Front Mission series, I am rooting for it. Mechs (wanzers, in this case) are always cool and I always love a good tactical RPG. However, Front Mission 3: Remake doesn’t just manage to put me off with its deeply frustrating combat mechanics; it feels…
Boom, waka-waka! Bandai Namco has revealed a new pre-order trailer for Shadow Labyrinth on the Switch 2, confirming that the game will run at 4K/60fps when docked. Not only that, but if you wish to purchase the game on the Switch 1 for the time being, you can rest easy knowing that a free upgrade…
Launching this October. If you’re into games that go hard on frenetic fun and stylish visuals, then you might want to keep an eye on Full Metal Schoolgirl, a new title headed for the Switch 2 from Yuke’s, the developers behind EARTH DEFENSE FORCE: World Brothers 2. Launching on 23rd October 2025, Full Metal Schoolgirl…
But he’s concerned about the console business. Sega’s president and COO, Shuji Utsumi, has stated his wish for the company’s revival to be the “greatest achievement” in his career.

But it’s far from its best. Xenoblade Chronicles developer Monolith Soft has recently reported an impressive 19% profit increase for the financial year ending March 2025. As covered by Game Biz (thanks, Nintendo Everything), the company recorded profits of 487 million yen during the last financial year, which is up from 409 million yen the…
So he’s finally here. With the Switch 2 entering its second month, following his Switch 2 debut in the Mario Kart World roster, DK is back in his own game – and it’s looking bananas. Seriously, though, Donkey Kong Bananza is looking brilliant and we’re very excited to finally get our hands on the latest…
Both companies deny the claims. If you found yourself trying to pick up a Switch 2 across the pond in recent months, then it will be old news to you that the console, and many first-party games prior to it, was not available directly through Amazon US. It felt like a baffling omission, but a…
No Cap(py). We assumed we were going to have to wait until launch day to find out the development team behind Donkey Kong Bananza, but no! Nintendo has surprised us all by announcing it early. As revealed to us at a recent Bananza hands-on event, we now know for sure that Nintendo EPD is behind…
Gotta respect the Rambition. Nintendo has a real knack for testing my attention span. I felt it in the subtask-filled Hyrule of Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom, but, far more importantly for this preview, it’s Super Mario Odyssey that most effectively bombarded me with distractions. Even a simple ‘Walk to that…
