Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 Raphael spotlight trailer
Posted on 1 year ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Switch, Videos | 0 comments
Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 is kicking off the week with its latest spotlight trailer, which features Raphael from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.
One of Raphael’s biggest advantages is his speed – he’s actually the fastest character in the game. He has some pretty decent range as well with moves like his special shuriken and more. However, he’s also very light so you can find yourself in trouble if caught.
[Rapid Review] Samba de Amigo: Party Central
Posted on 1 year ago by Edan(@@Virtualboi92) in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: August 29, 2023
Developer: SEGA
Publisher: SEGA
Look, I don’t want to seem ungrateful – but out of all of the franchises SEGA could have thawed from cryo-sleep in 2023, Samba de Amigo was not the one I would have expected. The fan-favorite rhythm action celebration of Latin American music and culture last graced our consoles a whopping 15 years ago, and even that was just a Wii port of an even older title. Nevertheless, SEGA has seen fit to resurrect the franchise with a brand new entry exclusive to Switch, and they’ve even attached series creator Shun Nakamura as the game’s director and producer. You would hope that this pedigree coupled with the the console’s maraca-adjacent control method would result in a pleasantly breezy party-game smash – the reality however, is anything but with Samba de Amigo: Party Central.

[Review] Sea of Stars
Posted on 1 year ago by Elias in Reviews, Switch | 0 comments
System: Switch
Release date: August 29, 2023
Developer: Sabotage Studio
Publisher: Sabotage Studio
Another successful Kickstarter project, Sea of Stars was fully funded only seven hours after being live on the platform. Canadian-based developer Sabotage Studio mapped out several stretch goals only to see them continuously blown away. Now with the release of this retro-inspired turn-based RPG, a nostalgic wind blows for older gamers that remember the golden age of SNES and SEGA Genesis titles – RPGs that Sea of Stars pays homage to in myriad ways. As a prequel to their previous game, The Messenger, Sea of Stars expands upon Sabotage Studio’s ability to tell a story, and this time they’ve taken a bit more of a lofty approach. Going from an action platformer to a storied RPG is quite a change, after all.
