Like Sealeo, Arcanine is another case of artistic license being taken with the Pokémon’s in-game measurements- Arcanine is close to twice the size of Sealeo, bigger…
That’s pretty good value for NSO subscribers, then. This week, Nintendo surprised us all by announcing that it would be bringing Virtual Boy games to Nintendo Switch Online, along with an absolutely bonkers accessory that delivers the full, headache-inducing VB experience to 2025 players.

The Sega Saturn may have found an audience in its native Japan, but it struggled in North America and Europe, failing to recapture the incredible commercial success of its forerunner, the Genesis / Mega Drive. This was despite a flood of quality games, including Virtua Fighter 2, NiGHTS Into Dreams, Panzer Dragoon…

That’s according to a new video. If you’re a diehard Legend of Zelda fan, you’ve probably across the legend of Chris Houlihan in the past. This is the now famous story about how a young boy ended up winning a Final Fantasy competition in an issue of Nintendo Power and was later immortalised in The…
Sometime back we mentioned the classic game of H.E.R.O was being overhauled for the C64 as a vastly superior version of a classic game that was first released way back in the 1980’s for the Atari 800/2600, 7800, ColecoVision, C64, C128, and ZX Spectrum. Sadly it looks as if that version of the game isn’t…
The console launched 26 years ago this week in North America. This week marks the 26th anniversary of the Sega Dreamcast’s release in North America, and retail tracking service Circana has data on the 20 best-selling games in that territory. As Circana’s Mat Piscatella revealed, the list is divided into total units sold and dollar…
A new stretch goal has been added. Game Garage, the developer of the upcoming Kirby Air Ride and Sonic Adventure-inspired title Star Garden, may have smashed its Kickstarter goal of $35,000, raising over $158,000 on the crowdfunding site.
