Tamagotchi Plaza (Nintendo Switch 2) Review

While I was a huge fan of the Digimon franchise as a kid, I didn’t have a huge interest in what the IP originally spun off of: Tamagotchi. I was definitely in the minority, seeing as over 40 million pocket devices with little digital…

Raidou Remastered (Nintendo Switch 2) Review

I am a big fan of the Shin Megami Tensei franchise. However, those familiar with the franchise are aware that it is expansive, branching out into spinoffs and subseries such as Devil Survivor (a strategy subseries), Soul Hackers (a pseudo sci-fi subseries), and…

Mario Kart World (Switch 2) Review

Launch titles can make or break a console’s out-the-gate sales and impressions. Despite the Nintendo Switch’s massive success, the Japanese company knew that the successor to the home-hybrid console needed to launch with a heavy hitter. Why not go with the next…

Atelier Yumia (Nintendo Switch) Review

I have loved the Atelier franchise since my mom bought Atelier Iris used at EB Games, sometime after its release in 2005. I remember it being tricky, since at the time there weren’t many copies due to the publisher (NIS America) being…

Tales of Graces f Remastered (Nintendo Switch) Review

The Tales franchise has many standouts in its library. The combat systems, stories, and worlds players experience have made this series a long-running favorite for JRPG fans. In Tales of Graces f Remastered, Bandai Namco brings the PS3 classic into the present-day gaming ecosystem…

Donkey Kong Country Returns HD Review

Donkey Kong Country Returns was first released for the Nintendo Wii in 2010, three years before it would appear again on the 3DS utilizing the handheld console’s 3D technology. At the time, it was nice to have the game as a handheld…

Star Wars: Episode I: Jedi Power Battles (Nintendo Switch) Review

I hadn’t seen much of the original Star Wars trilogy when I was younger. I knew that the coolest thing in the world was Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace, and I loved my PlayStation. That was really about as simple as…
