Koei Tecmo still planning to work on collaboration games
Posted on 3 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in General Nintendo, News | 0 comments
For over a decade now, a big part of Koei Tecmo’s business has come through collaboration games – particularly through the Musou genre. On the Nintendo front, the company worked on Hyrule Warriors, Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity, Fire Emblem Warriors, and Fire Emblem Warriors: Three Hopes. But we’ve seen plenty of other collaborations as well including One Piece, Persona, and more.
During Koei Tecmo’s latest financial results briefing, one investor brought up how the company’s collaborative games has lowered over the past couple of years. The attendee asked if there’s been a policy change or if it’s more challenging to land deals. However, it seems everything is business as usual.

Top 5 saddest Nintendo endings of all time
Posted on 3 months ago by Ethan in 3DS, Features, General Nintendo, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’re going over five of the saddest Nintendo endings of all time. As an important note, we’re only covering endings for games we’ve played, so if you can think of one that’s not on the list, feel free to share it with us in the comments down below.
For the most part, Nintendo is known for producing happy, feel-good games. Things like Mario and Kirby come to mind most here – just about all of their games end with a dramatic final boss fight, but a happy ending for the characters and world otherwise. That being said, some Nintendo games aren’t all kittens and rainbows at the end. Though far and few between, some of Nintendo’s sadder endings hit hard – and we’ve included five of the saddest Nintendo endings right here. Spoilers ahead!

Zelda: Majora’s Mask N64 vs. 3DS – examining which is better
Posted on 3 months ago by Ethan in 3DS, Features, General Nintendo | 0 comments
We’re taking a bit of time to reflect on the Zelda: Majora’s Mask N64 vs. 3DS debate to think about the pros and cons of each version.
The Legend of Zelda: Majora’s Mask is often regarded as one of the better (if not one of the best) games in the series. This is despite how heavily it borrows assets from Ocarina of Time – it fashions old assets into new characters with set routines and believable reactions to the tragedies that occur in the game. That being said, the two versions of the game available right now, N64 and 3DS, provide different experiences. There isn’t a consensus on which version of the game is objectively better, however. Today, we’re going to discuss the differences between Majora’s Mask N64 vs 3DS and ask you the question: which one do you like better?
