Posted on 1 week ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
The developers of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom have responded to a couple of criticisms – namely the game’s frame rate and menu system for echoes.
There are certain parts of the experience in which the frame rate can move between 60 and 30 FPS. In the end though, co-director Tomomi Sano said this was the “best option” available.
Link almost spoke in Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom

According to the developers behind The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom, Link came close to speaking in the game.
Series producer Eiji Aonuma shared that information in a recent interview. While the original plan was to have Link speak in Echoes of Wisdom, co-director Satoshi Terada said that it didn’t feel right. Since he hadn’t really spoken in a game before, that also made things difficult. Having Tri as Zelda’s companion is ultimately where things took a shift.
Here’s what Aonuma and Terada shared in the interview, as published by Famitsu:
Pokemon Sun and Moon reveals tons of scrapped features and ideas
Posted on 1 week ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in 3DS, News | 0 comments
As part of the ongoing information leak from the Game Freak hack, more new details have been revealed regarding scrapped ideas and features for Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon. To say that there’s a lot here would be an understatement.
The first feature is about something called “Guardians”. This would have been in places of Z Moves, which were a big hook in Pokemon Sun and Moon. Pokemon would be able to change their type based on the “Miracle Stone” and a “Guardian” avatar would appear next to them with the same type. “Guardians” were also technically planned to be a fifth move.
Different effects were planned on the type. As one example, Electric Guardians make all Pokemon the field super effective to Electric moves while Water Guardians bring down the speed of opposing Pokemon. Players could visit “Miracle Mountain” to receive these stones.

Lottacoins Island gate codes guide in Mario & Luigi Brothership
Posted on 1 week ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Somewhere around ten hours into Mario & Luigi Brothership, you’ll come across Lottacoins Island as part of the main quest. While we won’t go into any particular story details here, you’ll wind up having to figure out and then use codes to unlock gates to other areas. You’re supposed to find pieces of paper that show you an object, and from there you’re supposed to count the number of objects physically present in the area to determine the digit. But if you’re looking to skip all the searching, you’ve come to the right place – we have the Lottacoins Island gate codes so you can do just that.

Tetris Forever review for Nintendo Switch
Posted on 1 week ago by Nicholas Serpa in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: November 12, 2024
Developer: Digital Eclipse
Publisher: Digital Eclipse
It’s easy to take Tetris for granted. Tetris games have been released on, apparently, over 65 different devices. Many have described it as the perfect puzzle game. Very smart scientists have even performed psychological studies about how Tetris affects the human brain. It has, incredibly, been about 40 years since the release of the very first Tetris title. To help celebrate such a monumental anniversary, the historians at developer and publisher Digital Eclipse are releasing Tetris Forever, a package that’s as much a digital museum as it is a compilation of retro Tetris games. While it’s hard to argue with the core quality of the experiences available in the package, overall I found the focus of Tetris Forever to be narrower than I had hoped – not just in terms of the history being shared, but the games themselves. It’s a good glimpse into the origins of this massive franchise, but not quite the definitive Tetris package it could have been.
