Two sets of news concerning Nintendo’s current (and possibly future) plans for the Switch have cropped up recently, the release of a Nintendo Labo VR and the possible rumor of a Switch Mini (I must emphasize that the latter has not been confirmed by Nintendo). And I can’t help but speculate that, if rumors of…

Haven’t Heard of ‘Seven’ Before, But Am Glad the Enhanced Version is Coming
Isometric exploration games have always been a rare breed. They never play quite like anything else out there, and usually it takes a a certain kind of gamer to appreciate them due to the unusual gameplay mechanics they tend to employ. Those that do it well can definitely find great success within that niche; one…
Are You Ready for Devil May Cry 5?!
There’s something about games like Devil May Cry,, Persona 5 and DOOM that just plain makes them exciting, even if they still aren’t necessarily appealing. This has always been true, but I think the state of modern gaming makes it even more acute. There are so many joyless, dull-as-dishwater-looking games coming out these days that…
Nier: Automata – Game of the YoRHa Is Here
It’s been about two years since Nier: Automata originally released, and PlayStation 4 owners are finally getting the all-in-one version. There wasn’t any real need to wait for this version since there’s only one piece of DLC, but better late than never, eh?
Fire Emblem: Three Houses Looks Great (Despite the School Setting)
Fire Emblem has seen something of a rebirth over the past several years thanks to the Awakening and Fates games. It’s not quite the hardcore strategy game it once was; perma-death is optional instead of mandatory, players cannot play themselves into a no-win situation, and more emphasis has been put on the characters and their…
Artyom’s Nightmare Trailer Really Puts Him Through the Ringer
Okay, so this trailer is about a week old, but I still wanted to point it out a bit. Even as someone who hasn’t played much of the previous entries in the series, I’m actually looking forward to Metro: Exodus. I might not get it right away, but am still looking forward to it. And…
Crackdown 3 Is Out Later This Month…Wow.
Crackdown 3 is out later this month, and…it’s kind of weird saying that. Games suddenly emerging from the bowels of development purgatory are nothing new, but after so many delays and so deadlines broken, I’m sure I wasn’t the only one who thought the game would eventually wind up being vaporware. Obviously, I was wrong.

Capcom announced Monday that Resident Evil 2 will be getting a free update on February 15, one that will add three additional stories exploring…
In Case You Missed it, There’s a Power Rangers Fighting Game in the Works!
So…there’s a new Power Rangers game in the works, and this time it’s a 2D fighter instead of a beat ’em up! Based on the trailer, it looks like we’ll not only get to fight villains in this one, but also finally settle which ranger is objectively the best!
Xbox: Goodbye or Hello?
For the past several years, my household has started off each new year with the same question: Do we need a new console? Some years this has meant, do we need to replace a dying but still useful console?, such as an Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3. (As far as our library goes, these consoles…
