Best Pokemon games of all time, ranked
Posted on 6 days ago by Ethan in 3DS, DS, Features, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’re going over the best Pokemon games of all time – more specifically, the top 10 main series Pokemon games. Spin-offs don’t count for this particular list, but there are definitely plenty of those that are more than worth playing in the modern day.
The Pokemon series is, in a way, difficult to write about. At present, the series isn’t quite in a lull, per se, but it’s also most certainly not at its peak. Developing games is difficult, and for a never-ending media franchise like Pokemon, deadlines can be tough to meet. Over the past few years, titles like Sword and Shield and especially Scarlet and Violet have drawn criticism for several reasons. Though the design quality of individual Pokemon has remained strong, things like the graphics, performance, and postgame content have become somewhat inconsistent. This leads us to ask: what do you think are the best Pokemon games of all time? We’ve made our own list, so be sure to let us know your thoughts in the comments below.

How to 100% complete Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD
Posted on 1 week ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Today, we’re going over how to complete one of the most time-consuming challenges Nintendo has provided for us this year: Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD 100 percent completion.
At first glance, it might not seem like there’s a ton to do in Luigi’s Mansion 2 HD after clearing the main story. This isn’t quite the case, however. Clearing the Dark Moon quest alone isn’t enough to earn you full 100 percent completion. When you do fully complete the game, you’ll have three gold medals on your profile at all times. These show to people you play with in multiplayer ScareScraper lobbies, too. Each gold medal is unlocked with a different set of criteria, and believe us – it’s going to take you a long time if you want to get all three. It took us around 50 hours, and that’s probably on the lower end of the time you can expect to burn here.
