[Review] Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate
Posted on 7 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: July 17, 2024
Developer: Super Evil Megacorp
Publisher: Super Evil Megacorp
Since their debut in the 1980s, it feels as though the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have always been around in some form or another, undergoing a complete visual reboot every few years to appeal to a new audience. Despite this, the franchise as a whole has remained remarkably consistent in terms of characterization, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Splintered Fate is another iteration of the four iconic brothers. As a roguelite, it is also an interesting pivot away from the arcade and beat ’em up titles that they typically star in.

[Review] Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon
Posted on 8 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 27, 2024
Developer: Type-Moon
Publisher: Aniplex
The overwhelming success of Fate/Grand Order in recent years has significantly enhanced Type-Moon’s reputation, and as a long-time fan of their work I couldn’t be happier about it, as it has resulted in a lot of their less mainstream work reaching us overseas. With the surprise Western release of Witch on the Holy Night in 2022, and the release of the critically acclaimed Fate/Stay Night confirmed for Switch in the near future, it’s a welcome surprise that Tsukihime: A Piece of Blue Glass Moon arrives to fill the gap between the two. This also marks the first time the game has been released to western audiences, and although it’s an incomplete package by itself, it’s another exemplary work from the developer that is definitely worth a look.
How to toggle Miracles in Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
Posted on 8 months ago by Dawn in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
For those playing Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance and wondering how to toggle Miracles, we have you covered.
Most of the Miracles that you’ll learn provide permanent positive effects, such as increase the number of skills you can learn from Essence Fusion, capabilities in combat, and benefits from fusion. A few are listed as “Togglable” as their effects can be turned off and on at your discretion, but the game never actually tells you how to do this.

[Review] Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD
Posted on 8 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: June 27, 2024
Developer: Next Level Games / Tantalus
Publisher: Nintendo
When it was first released on the 3DS, Luigi’s Mansion: Dark Moon never really felt like a sequel to the Gamecube title to me, and it wasn’t until the release of Luigi’s Mansion 3 on Switch that its significance really hit home. But the game simply felt too ambitious for its own good at the time and felt like it would have been a better fit for the ailing Wii U, which was better equipped to deal with its increased scope, visual style, and was also in desperate need of more games, which the 3DS never had any shortage of. But with its release on the Switch, Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD feels as though it has finally been given some long overdue and much-needed room to breathe.
