Which do you prefer? The latest Switch update brought with it a couple of pretty substantial new features in the form of Virtual Game Cards and GameShare as Nintendo looks to prepare for the upcoming Switch 2. In addition to this (and, apparently, a few nasty error messages), the Switch eShop has also received a…
And there’s physical goodness, too! We have been through a range of emotions with this one. Pac-Man, arguably the most useful yellow ball since the sun, and a true video gaming legend at 45 years in the biz, has made the jump to full-on action fare. Bandai Namco’s Shadow Labyrinth – which launches on July…
The “overriding factor” is money. There have been ongoing requests over the years for the revival of Rare’s famous bear and bird duo Banjo-Kazooie, but will fans ever see this series return?

Open to paid NSO subscribers a week later. Alongside the Switch 2 release, Nintendo is adding the GameCube library to the Switch Online + Expansion Pack. If you want to experience this library of games in the most authentic way possible (outside of the real thing), you’re going to want one of the new GameCube…
Oh boycott. The death of physical media has been looming for decades now, essentially since the internet made digital downloads a viable option for purchasing games – or purchasing your licences to play games. While Nintendo got involved relatively quickly (for Nintendo, at least) with WiiWare and Virtual Console digital downloads, there’s still always been…
Okami 2, please. Just recently, we reported that developer Masahiro Sakurai had been successful in the Switch 2 lottery system in Japan, thus receiving an invite to purchase the upcoming console. Now, another legendary developer has announced his own success, and that’s Hideki Kamiya. Famous for his work on Resident Evil 2, Bayonetta, and Okami,…
But what about the rest of us?! Hollow Knight fans have been itching to get their hands on the upcoming sequel, Silksong, and while it’s still currently scheduled to launch in 2025, desperation is undoubtedly starting to creep in with some. Thankfully, news that Silksong will be playable at an Australian museum later this year…
Or together via local multiplayer. With the introduction of Virtual Game Cards, Switch owners can now conveniently swap digital games from one Switch console to another. However, it’s been noted that players can no longer boot up the same game simultaneously across two Switch consoles while online. The good news is that while you can…
