The Best Games of 2001 According to GameRankings

Posted on April 28, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

By 2001, The PlayStation 2 had begun to receive its sophomore software and its catalogue began to fill up with great games. These games included Final Fantasy X and the cultural phenomenon Grand Theft Auto III.   This was also the year where the Dreamcast was, for all intents and purposes, declared ‘dead’. Microsoft and Nintendo…

Throwback Bit Thursday: A Brief 1997 Nintendo 64 Memoir

Posted on April 22, 2022April 22, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

Ah! 1997! To be 13 years old again! To have a crush on Ginger Spice again! So many memories, but perhaps none dearer than my time as a new Nintendo 64 owner and the hours I spent playing Turok, Golden Eye, and Star Fox 64.  Truth be told, I probably played more of Super Mario…

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of Wild 2 Delayed Until 2023 

Posted on April 8, 2022April 8, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

Given the massive commercial (over 26 million copies sold) and critical success of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild, Nintendo’s 35-year-old franchise has never been more popular than it is today. Thus, the news of a delay for its sequel has caused some disappointment amongst fans.  Nintendo Shares Drop 6% After News  The…

Throwback Bit Thursday: Super Mario Odyssey a Homage to the Mario Saga 

Posted on March 17, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

This week, I reached the Super Mario Odyssey credits for the second time since 2018. The first time around, I mainly rushed through the game trying to get just enough moons to reach the finish line. It was a fun experience, and I greatly enjoyed Nintendo’s technical mastery of the Switch hardware at the time….

Shigeru Miyamoto on What Makes Ocarina of Time a Special Game

Posted on March 14, 2022March 14, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

I can never write enough about the Legend of Zelda: of Ocarina of Time, as it is my favorite game of all time. Thus, on my weekly internet search about the game and its development, I ran into a rather interesting Shigeru Miyamoto “Iwata Asks” interview.  The interview is part of a long string of…

Nintendo Remains the Perfect Eco System for Young First Time Gamers

Posted on February 25, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

My son turned five years of age at end of January. Being that he seems to love old Sega Genesis Sonic games and Minecraft, I felt that it was the proper time to finally let him have a video gaming system of its own.   I was a five-year-old myself when my mother first got…

Today, we list 1991’s greatest games according to their critical average on the now defunct site.   This week the SNES takes over the listing, and that should not come as a…

Throwback Bit Thursday: Paper Mario 

Posted on February 10, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

While the Nintendo 64 is my favorite console of all time, I would be doing myself and our readers a disservice if I told them that Paper Mario was my favorite N64 game. Heck, it wasn’t even my favorite RPG on the system.  While critics raved about Paper Mario 22 years ago, I never found…

Throwback Bit Thursday: Final Fantasy VII – The Game That Changed Fortunes

Posted on February 3, 2022February 4, 2022 by Samuel Rivera

This week, Final Fantasy VII turned 25 years old (Japanese release), and it seems like the perfect moment to think back and reflect on how big a game it was for both the Japanese Role-Playing genre and the PlayStation’s emergence as the dominant home console player in the mid to late 1990s.   Squaresoft Never…

Nintendo Switch Online subscription members will have something special to look forward to in February. The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask finally arrives to the service, though we can’t vouch for the eventual quality of the emulation.   Does Majora’s Mask Make the Service Expansion Pack a Worthy Investment at Last?  If you have never…
