Mario Kart World unlockable outfits guide and full list
Posted on 5 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch 2 | 0 comments
One of the big new features in Mario Kart World is the ability to unlock outfits for different characters. Most of the drivers in this game have plenty of costumes choose from – with the exception of Donkey Kong and Pauline, who only have one outfit each. Furthermore, some drivers, like Wiggler, Nabbit, and all of the minion characters, are designated as NPC drivers. This means that they don’t have any costumes to choose from at all.

Fast Fusion review for Nintendo Switch 2
Posted on 5 months ago by Richard in Reviews, Switch 2 | 0 comments
System: Switch 2
Release date: June 5, 2025
Developer: Shin’en
Publisher: Shin’en
I love anti-gravity racers. My very first one was F-Zero GX, one of the two games I picked up with my GameCube in 2003, when I was six. I was addicted. I put dozens upon dozens of hours into the game, with its difficulty level only encouraging me to play more. My dad saw how much I loved it, and he owned a PlayStation 2 at the time. As a gift, he gifted me WipeOut Fusion the following year. A similar style of game, and another one I fell in love with, albeit not to the same extent. Still, as the years went by, F-Zero and WipeOut became series with infrequent releases at best. An itch formed within me for a new futuristic space racer, and unbeknownst to me, there was another one making the rounds from Shin’en.

Posted on 5 months ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch, Videos | 0 comments
A demo for Terrifier: The ARTcade Game will be available on Nintendo Switch, according to SelectaPlay and Relevo.
The announcement technically states that the demo is out now. However, we don’t see a page on the Nintendo eShop for it currently. When the demo does go live – which should be soon – fans will be able to get a taste of the blood-soaked retro beat ’em up inspired by the arcade classics of the 80s and 90s.
