Editor’s Note: The Legend of Zelda was left out of the conversation for a variety reasons. First, the debate as to whether…
On the surface, Xenoblade Chronicles feels like a newer game than it actually is. The series’ growth in popularity on Nintendo systems, and the “Remaster/ports” that the title has received has kept its name on video game media headlines throughout the last decade.

Nintendo did not announce precise specification numbers for the machine. We expected a real upgrade in…
It might seem crazy, but this week the Nintendo 64 turned 25 years old, marking an important milestone for one of the most influential consoles in gaming history. Today’s edition of Throwback Bit Thursday presents a perfect occasion for me to remember what is, perhaps, my favorite console ever. A Child with Dreams and a…

The Nintendo 64 was plagued by the lack of quantity of AAA game releases (as 3rd parties flocked to Sony’s greener pastures in the mid 1990s). However, the few big titles that did grace the system were some of the most revolutionary, and amazing games ever made. One such game was Rare’s Golden Eye. Rare…
