How to use and counter every sub weapon in Splatoon 3
Posted on 2 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
With Splatoon 3’s Grand Festival coming up soon, we figured now would be a good time to make a guide on sub weapons aimed at casual or former players who might be returning to play the event.
If you haven’t played much of Splatoon 3 just yet (somehow), there are tons of sub weapons available in the game that each serve a different purpose. Some are area-of-effect damage-rackers, while others are purely defensive or for support. Still, how well you use your subs can make or break individual games. Some are better than others, too, so we’ll be going over what each one does, tips for using them, and how to counter other players using them against you.

Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp dev explains how the parntership with Nintendo came to be
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
A new Advance Wars 1+2: Re-Boot Camp developer interview gives us insight as to how the partnership between Nintendo and WayForward came to be.
This was a milestone release for a number of reasons. WayForward, best known for its Shantae series, was finally able to work with a Nintendo IP. Advance Wars was also dormant for about 15 years, as Days of Ruin was the last entry having hit the DS in 2008.

Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was almost called Zelda: Tears of the Dragon
Posted on 2 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Nintendo has spoken about the name for The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom, and revealed that there was strong consideration for calling it Tears of the Dragon instead.
That tidbit comes from Eiji Aonuma, the game’s producer. Aonuma was speaking about Tears of the Kingdom in the newly-released art book, indicating that the Tears of the Dragon name could cause issues since it would “emphasize the Light Dragon”. Only after another member of the team suggested “Kingdom” that the final title materialized.

[Review] Ace Attorney Investigations Collection
Posted on 2 months ago by Dawn in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: September 6, 2024
Developer: Capcom
Publisher: Capcom
Although it has been several years since we’ve had a brand new instalment in the franchise, there’s no denying that fans of Ace Attorney have been fairly well catered-to over the last few years. With the arrival of Ace Attorney Investigations Collection, we now have every title in the series (except for the Professor Layton spinoff anyway, which will probably be the next thing we get before a new game) available to us on Switch, including the three that were never released in the West. This collection brings us two entries that take a refreshing approach to the gameplay formula that is definitely worth investigating for fans and newcomers alike.
