[Opinion] Nintendo’s Switch plans are disrespectful to consumers
Earlier this week, Nintendo unveiled the Nintendo Switch in all its hopeful glory to the general public. This is the second third fourth fifth sixth time since Nintendo’s Switch launch announcement that I’ve felt horribly disrespected and let down by Nintendo. To begin… Launch Title Embarrassment First off, Nintendo announced to the world today that the Nintendo Switch’s biggest launch title, Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (which is also...

Into The Fray: Why the Wii U is Already Dead
Like many of my gaming counterparts Nintendo was the first console that I could truly call my own and is largely responsible for starting my love for video games. It is this very reason that it pains me to say that Wii U Is Dead and there might not be a way to resurrect it. For years the name Nintendo has been synonymous with gaming, it was the name that those outside of the gaming world seemed to use when referring to consoles as a whole and that kind of brand recognition...
Big News and Editorial: Wii U – Desperate Times Call for Desperate Measures
It’s truly amazing what Nintendo has just pulled off. In 35 minutes, they have finally convinced the world that they have a game plan for Wii U and announced eight new games as well as gave updates on previously announced titles. Although I will have all the announcements today in bullet point form below, there’s no better way to get the news than to watch the Nintendo Direct broadcast yourself. After watching the video or reading the bullet points, be sure...
PAX: Hands on with Gheldia – Zelda Fantasy
At PAX this year the indie presence was huge. There is a reason they have a large section carved out, called “The Indie Mega Booth.” It is massive, and full of really interesting games. However, not all of the indie games exist within this amalgamation of ideas. One such outlier, Gheldia, stood on the 6th floor, far away from all the other indie games. It was on that floor that I saw this up and coming gem and love happened. Gheldia is a top down game in the same style...
The 3DS Franken-Stick is Killing Mobile Games
The recently announced 3DS XL hit the community with some controversy. The expected model revision was going to be something smaller that included a built in analog stick. We got quite the opposite with a bigger system that has no built in analog stick. It will have another franken-stick attachment though, because you wanted to carry that around. Not long after the announcement people were up in arms about the missing stick. The option to buy a second stick for the original...
