Virus Rush is a new bullet-hell style game that takes place in a microscopic world. It released for the Nintendo Switch just a few days ago. You play as a sentient virus that has to navigate through what looks like hoards of germs and viruses. It looks like it'd be fun. The game combines elements of strategy and survival as well. Check the trailer out below. Is this a buy for you ..read more

I haven't heard a whole lot about Amiibos or games that utilize Amiibos for a while now. Does Nintendo still produce and sell new Amiibos? What new games even utilize Amiibos? Or are they mostly older titles that work with Amiibos?  I know the Switch has NFC support to utilize Amiibos, but what newer games even utilize it? Do most Nintendo branded games have Amiibo support? Or is it a small group of games only?  ..read more

Nintendo Switch will be getting ports of Grounded and Pentiment. They will be the first two of four Xbox exclusives dropping on the Switch. It's likely these two might also drop on the PlayStation consoles, unless Sony is getting its own 4 Xbox exclusives while the Switch its own as well. I'm sure we'll hear more about the other games coming to Switch.  I played a bit of Grounded, but couldn't get into it. Pentiment on the other hand I have heard of, but never played. I hear it's a great game, so maybe one of these days I'll have to check it out. But yeah, I think this is great for Switch ..read more

If you're someone who has dealt with stick drift in your joy con controllers, how often has it happened to you? And how many times have you sent your joy con in for a free repair? I know Nintendo a while back would offer free repairs to those who have joy con drift. I had sent my nephews joy cons in and they sent a new replacement in. But now another of his controllers is starting to act up, and I may have to send that in for repair as well. With that being said, how many times have you had to send your joy cons in for repair or replacement because of controller drift?  ..read more

Remember the awkward E3 reveal of Wii Music, where Miyamoto and some people from Nintendo got on stage and hammed it up playing Wii Music? Or how they attempted to is how I should have put it. I just remember how awful the presentation was, and how the music didn't really sound all too great. Did anyone here play it? I guess it wasn't well received by gamers when it was released. Rerez has a good video about the game. They make some fun videos bashing bad games.  Actually, I might have a copy of Wii Music that I got years ago from a friend. I'll have to look for it. :D  ..read more

With the Red Dead Redemption making its way on the switch, it made me wonder if we'll see GTA IV get the same treatment. I feel as if almost anything could run GTA IV these days, even a switch, so could Rockstar end up releasing a version of GTA IV for the Switch? If they could get RDR1 to work, I could see GTA IV working too. Or would it be a waste for Rockstar to bother with?  ..read more

This makes the 3rd one in the home, lol. However, this is our first one with an OLED screen. Each kid has a Switch. But my wife wanted one of her own ..read more

There has been a lot of speculation regarding whether Nintendo may announce a new console soon and many feel it may be the Nintendo Switch 2 that is announced.  Nothing as of yet has been announced by Nintendo themselves but being that it has been around 6 years since they released the Nintendo Switch, it could be coming up to a time for a new release. Would you like to see a Nintendo Switch 2 announced?  ..read more

What do you think Nintendo will come out with next? I've always preferred Nintendo as the console, controllers, games tend to be more user-friendly. I would hope they continue to listen to their customers & keep making it that way. They need to find their own groove in the gaming world. People don't want the same ol' system that others have to offer. So, what do you think they'll do next? Come out with a different game? Another controller perhaps ..read more

There are actually two different versions of what is labeled "Mario 2". The one we got here in the states was the one where Mario is actually asleep dreaming, but you don't find out until after you beat the final boss Wart. A frog that doesn't like vegetables. But there was also another one that, here, we know it as SMB The Lost Levels. It's the same graphical style as the original SMB game, but is a hell of a lot harder. Here we got the Mario dreaming one. But around the world, different countries saw different games. So which did you get where you live ..read more
