If I was asked to mention, or better yet to make a list of the top ten greatest Japanese Role-playing games ever, the number one spot would spark some controversy. Lists of that particular “greatest of all time” kind are always mostly subjective affairs. If someone wants to stand their ground and say that Quest…
Is Pikmin 3 Deluxe All That is Left From Nintendo in 2020?
Nintendo has no games scheduled (at least no big games) scheduled for the Fall. Only a Remaster of Wii U’s Pikmin 3 is scheduled for an October 30th release, which makes us wonder: Is Nintendo back to its usual “Quality over Quantity” tricks? It has been an incredible year in terms of sales for the…

Throwback Bit Thursday: The Legend of Dragoon

The Playstation Japanese Role-Playing game, released in the year 2000, isn’t a really a special RPG, but it is the one game that I felt was the definition of “Pedestrian” when I first reviewed it, and yet, somehow, it…
Halo Infinite Remains on Target for a 2021 Release on Xbox One/Series X
Halo Infinite’s turbulent development has had enough rumors (both confirmed and unconfirmed) to write an entertaining Netflix series about its controversial development saga.

Bloomberg Reports: New More Powerful Switch Coming in 2021
Nintendo news have been scarce over the Summer. While Microsoft and Sony prepare for the Holidays, and their respective next generation console launches, Nintendo has remained awfully quiet.

A new week, a new Microsoft rumor. This one, however, isn’t very flattering.
