Like many others, my first sight of Splatoon in last year's Nintendo Digital Event at E3 surprised me. I wasn't really sure what to think. On the one hand, the cartoony style made me think of a lot of Nickelodeon cartoons from the '90s, which is always good for...
When the original Xenoblade Chronicles finally came to Wii in North America, it was one of those games that I wanted to play but was in no hurry to purchase. Of course, considering it was exclusive to GameStop with a very limited run, that was a mistake that I later...
Though I never owned a Super Nintendo growing up, when I first was introduced to the great RPGs of the console, EarthBound was one of the highly recommended titles to play. But as much as I tried, I couldn't get into it. Fast-forward 13 years to the release of...
Like most modern gamers, my backlog is far too large. Between the games I bought years after they released, games I've been interested in trying but haven't gotten around to, and new games that keep coming out, I'm never lacking in content to play. And as an adult 5...
In honor of the 15th anniversary of The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask and the release of the 3D remake for Nintendo 3DS, here's a fun piece (adapted from a list of 10 I wrote after the original game was released) with 15 signs of obsession with Majora's Mask 3D....
This may sound crazy, but back when The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask came out on Nintendo 64, I thought it was better than Ocarina of Time. Please, don't stone me. While I eventually came to love Ocarina of Time more, Majora's Mask has always had a special place in...
If there's one aspect of Nintendo with which I've had a love/hate relationship, it's Club Nintendo. The concept behind it--gaining rewards for buying and registering Nintendo games (and systems)--was great in theory, but not always in reality. The rewards...
(Horrible title, right?) There are always hype trains for big games, especially ones that seem unique. Watch_Dogs was easily one of the most anticipated games since its original showing at E3 2012. The hype train was so monstrous, in fact, that it was pretty much...
If you're anything like me, horror is not your forte. You won't watch horror movies, you won't play horror games, and you may not even read horror books. But every once in a while, something comes along that is worth pressing on in order to get past that fear. For me,...
The Game Modes Now here's where things get interesting. Super Smash Bros. for 3DS has a number of different modes which vary greatly on their level of fun. Smash is quite simply the standard versus match and it is easily the highlight of the game. This is why I bought...
No thanks, I don't like to chatting with awesome people about stuff I love.
