[Let’s Talk] Retro Studios’ next game
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Let's Talk, Switch | 0 comments
You know what’s sort of crazy? The last time an original Retro Studios-made game released was in 2014 with Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze. We’re now coming full circle with a port on Switch later this year.
Retro often works in the shadows. We don’t often hear about the company much, and it’s anybody’s guess as to what they’re working on currently. Four years in between games is quite awhile, and fans are very much interested in Retro’s next title.
Could Retro be developing another Donkey Kong game? A resurrected Nintendo IP? A new IP of their own? Just thinking about the possibilities are exciting. Let us know about the ideas you have for Retro’s future in the comments below.

[Review] Radiant Historia: Perfect Chronology
Posted on 7 years ago by Dennis Gagliardotto(@LyonHart_) in 3DS, Reviews | 0 comments
System: 3DS
Release date: February 13, 2018
Developer: Atlus
Publisher: Atlus
It amazes me how even after years of incredible games from a system’s lifecycle, we have been consistently impressed with the “cherry on top”, if you will, at the very end that leaves its mark and gives players one last hoorah before the inevitable new generation. It was Zelda: Breath of the Wild on Wii U for example, and now Radiant Historia on 3DS. With Radiant Historia, we can revisit one of the titles that made the DS so great, and gladly add it to the 3DS’ ineffable library of RPGs. It’s an encore that shows nothing but respect for the craft, the legacy of the DS and 3DS, as well as the genre as whole.

Hello Neighbor confirmed for Switch
Posted on 7 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Update 2: tinyBuild made this official during its presentation. No set release date just yet.
Update: Bumped to the top. This is now up on Amazon as well.
Original: Later today, tinyBuild will be hosting a presentation to announce six new games for Switch. Best Buy seems to have spoiled at least one of the surprises, as the retailer is listing Hello Neighbor for Nintendo’s console. Pre-orders are open here.
Hello Neighbor has actually been rumored for Switch previously, so perhaps this shouldn’t be much of a surprise after all. In any case, we’ll report back later with tinyBuild’s full slate of announcements.
As for Hello Neighbor itself, it’s a stealth horror game in which you’re tasked with sneaking into your neighbor’s house to find out what horrible secrets he’s hiding in the basement. We have a few more details and a trailer below.
