The Zoids franchise has been around for over thirty years, involving model kits, anime series, and more. The series is now being revitalized once again as Zoids Wild.
Announced today, Zoids Wild will encompass into new model kits, anime, manga, and more. Most interesting of all, at least for us, is an entirely new game for Switch.
Unfortunately, details about the title are nonexistent at present. But given how the Zoids Wild cross-media project will be debuting in Japan this summer, we could be receiving details soon. Takara Tomy also has interest in expanding the new series overseas, though it’s unclear if this will apply to the Switch game.

Happy seventh anniversary, 3DS
Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
We can’t end the day without highlighting the 3DS, which is celebrating another anniversary. The portable system originally launched in Japan on February 26, 2011. It would release in other regions about a month later.
Though it’s been around for many years, 3DS has certainly showed staying power. It hasn’t sold quite as well as the DS, but it’s done very well on its own right. The handheld is home to many classics and fantastic games, and we can’t forget about the many revisions it has seen over the many years. We started out with just the 3DS, but Nintendo has also launched the 3DS XL, 2DS, New 3DS, New 3DS XL, and New 2DS XL. It’s been a wild ride.
Here’s to you, 3DS! Thanks for all of the gaming memories.
