Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life review

System: Switch
Release date: June 27, 2023
Developer: Marvelous
Publisher: XSEED / Marvelous


Story of Seasons has had a series of ups and downs as the franchise has tried to find its footing in a genre it once had a monopoly on. It’s true that each new title has offered an exciting prospect of things to come within the series itself. It’s also always seemed to go against the idea of being a market leader once more in favor of keeping things traditional, but much that stubborn thinking may be to its detriment. This rears its head in the series’ new remake, Story of Seasons: A Wonderful Life.

Pikmin 4 multiplayer Unreal Engine

Pikmin 4 is about a month away, and new details are starting to surface confirming aspects such as split-screen multiplayer and how the game was made with Unreal Engine 4. Some notable tidbits are included on the official download card that’s now popping up across Japanese retailers.

In terms of actual gameplay, split-screen multiplayer is now confirmed. Additionally, a second player is able to provide support by shooting with a reticle. Another aspect pointed out on the card is how you can enter a house. Finally, there’ll be new treasures like fidget spinners, origami, and beach balls.

Mario Rabbids Sparks Hope Last Spark Hunter details

New details about the next wave of DLC for Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope, The Last Spark Hunter, have been revealed. This comes courtesy of a notice via the official Switch news channel.

We previously heard that the DLC would feature the Melodic Gardens, but the news post shares much more. Kanya, the Last Spark Hunter, is the main threat here and comes with the Mecha King Bob-Omb weapon. Golems and Fieldbreakers will also be some of the enemies players will take on.

With over a month under our belts exploring the expanded and more populous Hyrule, Tears of the Kingdom has had time to settle in as the newest title in the Legend of Zelda series. A direct sequel to Breath of the Wild, players will find maps to be vastly changed, even if a bit familiar. As one of the most-anticipated games of 2023, the team here at Nintendo Everything ended up picking up copies across the board – and for the first time, we’d all like to weigh in with our impressions and takeaways when it comes to Link’s latest adventure since we’ve had a few weeks to digest it all. Members of the team came together and discussed our experiences with Tears of the Kingdom, and you can see our various takes on the game below.

Nintendo Direct rumor June 2023

It doesn’t take much for the Nintendo Direct rumor mill to go into overdrive, and that’s what’s happening today with supposed new leaks. Rumor has it that a new June 2023 presentation is planned and it will be airing sometime this week. Additionally, we may have some insight into what will be shown.

Twitter user Pyoro_ND appears to have the early scoop. This person has leaked a number of new titles before they were officially announced, though they’ve only recently started to receive a great deal of attention.

Disney Illusion Island preview

Disney Illusion Island feels like the type of game that Disney hasn’t made in ages. It’s not only the first original Mickey Mouse platformer that we’ve seen in about a decade, but it’s combining some of the best gameplay elements of many of its inspirations with gorgeous character animation, and a rhythm that’s especially tuned for local multiplayer. While perhaps not seeking to innovate the genre, Disney Illusion Island feels like it’s built with incredible care and respect for its IP; while I’m sure fans of Mickey and friends will appreciate this game the most, there’s a lot to love here for fans of platformers in general, and I think its exploration and puzzle elements will resonate with many.

Pikmin 4

It’s time for the latest Famitsu’s most wanted games chart. Pikmin 4 is still the top voted Switch title this week.

Head past the break for the full chart. All votes were cast between June 1 and June 7.
