This November marks the tenth anniversary of The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. Earlier this year, Nintendo released an HD version of the game on the Wii U. Although Breath of the Wild is what’s in the news, it’s really been the year of Twilight, and that’s a big part of why I decided…

Resonance: Sky Waltz
Over on UWG’s Youtube channel, I have been covering Kirby’s Return to Dreamland for the Wii, a game I hadn’t played in probably a good five years. As with all Kirby games, this one is bright and cheery and all around adorable, and I had such a great time with it, in fact, that this…
Saturday Video Round Up: August 21 – 27
With the insanity of Gamescom 2016 now behind us, the trailers and gameplay videos have stabilized a bit. That’s not to say there’s nothing going on though, as we’re diving head long into the busiest time of the year. Fear not, the Round Up is back once again and has compiled only the best trailers…
Nintendo and I: Is the End is Nigh?
Three years ago, I contemplated why I had not yet established a relationship with the Wii U. The console had then been out for number of months, and as a self-prescribed “super” Nintendo fan, I had yet to jump on the Wii U bandwagon. Though I was enamored with the likes of Super Mario 3D…
Warning: Animal Crossing May Increase Your Blood Pressure
Maybe I’m the only one here who feels this way. Maybe what I’m about to say is completely out there, and my sanity should be seriously questioned. But I’ve been thinking long and hard about something lately, and I have come to the conclusion that Animal Crossing might just possibly be one of the cruelest…
Petitions and Video Games Don’t Mix
Like many series, the Paper Mario games have been caught in a downward spiral from which they don’t yet seem capable of recovering. While Super Paper Mario was certainly not the most popular game in the franchise, it was not until Sticker Star that I believe the series’ decay became clear. Not long ago, I…
A Trial Run of Pokémon Go
I never intended to play Pokémon Go. Up until this past weekend, I was more than content to follow its comings and goings online, in social media, and on the nightly news. I was impressed by mainstream cult that quickly formed around the game, and I was amazed at its immediate rise in popularity, and…
Making Nice with the Twilight Princess: Update #4.2
Greetings, all! It’s time to get back to talking about The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess! When I left off last time, I promised to get things moving along with the second half of the game. I can’t stress enough how much better things are going for me in this portion of the game. Maybe…
Making Nice with the Twilight Princess: Update #4.1
Isn’t it about time for more action with Link and the fight against darkness? I’ll say it is! Because between my last update and now, I think I’ve made pretty good progress in The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. And by “pretty good,” I mean that a couple more dungeons are finally in the bag….
New Details Revealed for Zelda Wii U
I am not typically one to follow news of any kind, video game news included. From time to time, however, a tidbit of knowledge catches my eye, more often than not relating to the select series I hold nearest to my heart. One of those is The Legend of Zelda. Games from this series are…
